Victorian stone end cottage with period character
11 Waterside is a charming two-bedroom end stone cottage in the heart of Hadfield, ready for a first home or buy-to-let. The cottage keeps its Victorian character with a stone façade, bay window and a cosy lounge centred on a wood-burning stove. The fitted kitchen/diner and low-maintenance rear courtyard deliver practical everyday living and a pleasant countryside outlook.
Practical positives include a long lease (999 years), nominal ground rent, very low council tax (Band A) and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal — appealing for commuters and remote workers. Hadfield station is an easy walk away for direct links to Manchester, while the Peak District is close for outdoor recreation.
Important facts: the property sits in an area rated as deprived with above-average local crime levels, which may concern some buyers. It is leasehold (long lease), modest in overall size (approximately 732 sq ft) and best suited to buyers seeking an entry-level home or an investment requiring minimal immediate work. Any purchaser should carry out their own checks on local services and security.
