This compact two-bedroom stone cottage blends period character with manageable modern comforts, ideal for a first home or weekend retreat. The cosy lounge centres on an open fireplace and large sash-style windows, giving the living space warmth and charm. Double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort, and the property is Freehold with an EPC rating of C.
Externally, the small tiered cottage garden provides privacy and planting potential, with a front garden that enjoys attractive hillside views and immediate access to the Sett Valley Trail for walking and outdoor recreation. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for home working or streaming.
Note the house is small at about 516 sq ft and has traditional sandstone/limestone walls that are likely uninsulated, so there is scope (and potential cost) to improve thermal efficiency if required. There is a single bathroom and the layout is traditional and straightforward, so buyers should expect some compromise on space and storage compared with newer homes.
Overall this is a characterful, affordable entry into a very desirable rural area. It will suit a buyer who values location, views and charm over generous internal floorplate, and who is open to modest updating to personalise the cottage.
