3 bed 2 bath Detached
Charming period cottage with modern interior, gardens and parking in sought-after Woodhouses.
Double-fronted detached cottage dating to circa 1853
A rare double-fronted detached cottage dating to c.1853, presented with high-quality contemporary fittings and plenty of character. The ground floor centres on a bright, open-plan kitchen/diner with Velux windows and bifold doors that connect directly to a well-landscaped garden and patio — ideal for family life and entertaining. There is practical downstairs accommodation including a shower room, utility and a versatile extra reception that could serve as a home office or fourth bedroom.
Three double bedrooms and a stylish four-piece family bathroom sit upstairs, offering comfortable sleeping space for a growing family. Driveway parking to the front plus additional private parking at the rear make daily comings and goings straightforward. Local amenities in Woodhouses, good primary and secondary schools nearby, and quick access to the M60 make this a convenient choice for commuters and families.
Buyers should note the property has an EPC rating of D and original solid brick walls (no added cavity insulation assumed), so further thermal improvements are possible if desired. The plot is described as small, and while the garden is attractively landscaped it is compact compared with larger suburban plots. As a mid‑19th century build, ongoing maintenance typical of older homes should be considered.
Overall this chain-free cottage blends period charm with contemporary living and outdoor space in a sought-after village location. It will suit families or professionals seeking character, easy commuter links and a ready-to-move-in interior with scope for future energy upgrades.
