This substantial three-bedroom semi-detached cottage occupies a large plot in Withnell, backing onto open countryside and offering generous, flexible living space across multiple reception rooms. Period features such as exposed beams, bay windows and a characterful fireplace give the house strong charm, while a double garage and space for eight-plus cars make it especially practical for families with vehicles or hobbyists needing storage.
The layout suits family life: two large double bedrooms, a single bedroom adaptable as a nursery or home office, a four-piece family bathroom plus separate WC, and several reception rooms that can be used as lounge, dining room and snug. The kitchen/family room includes a breakfast bar and a log-burning fire with a circular window framing rural views — good scope for creating a contemporary kitchen-diner if desired.
Buyers should note a few material points plainly: the property is an older stone-built home (pre-1900) with assumed uninsulated solid walls, double glazing of unknown age and an EPC rating of E. Some decor is dated and modernisation or insulation upgrades will be required to improve energy performance. Broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect home working, and the council tax band is moderate.
Overall this Freehold house will appeal to families wanting space and countryside outlooks, renovators seeking period character, or anyone needing substantial garaging and parking. It offers clear potential but expect investment for energy improvements and interior modernisation to raise comfort and efficiency.
