This chocolate-box period cottage offers two bedrooms, a cosy lounge and a separate dining room, set back from Town Lane in Much Hoole. The house sits on a very large plot with a stone-paved patio/courtyard and a private off-street parking space for one vehicle — rare in this rural setting. The property is freehold and offered chain free for a straightforward purchase.
Internally the home blends original character with practical updates: a gas-fired boiler and radiators, double glazing fitted after 2002 and an attractive gas fireplace in the lounge. The footprint is compact (approx. 721 sq ft) with practical room sizes — lounge, kitchen, dining room (or bedroom three), bathroom and two bedrooms — suited to first-time buyers or those scaling down.
Buyers should note the property’s period construction is solid brick with no assumed cavity insulation, so there is scope for energy-efficiency improvements. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow despite excellent mobile signal. The house is in a very affluent, low-crime area close to good primary and secondary schools and benefits from a rural, prospering-countryside setting.
Overall this cottage offers immediate liveability with clear potential to improve thermal performance and connectivity. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the location, garden courtyard and character features; the property is well suited to buyers seeking a charming, manageable home with scope to personalise.
