Set down a quiet country lane, this extended Grade II Listed, detached, stone-built cottage dates back to 1809 and has retained many period features.
Briefly, the accommodation comprises a vestibule with a white two-piece cloakroom off and latch doors to the two lovely reception rooms with original stone flagged floors, one being dual aspect and having a sandstone ingle fireplace with a multi-fuel burning stove.
The well-appointed living-dining-kitchen has a range of cabinets with granite worktops, inset Belfast sink unit, inset ceramic hob, eye-level double oven and grill, space for white goods, a table and chairs and a sofa alongside the wall mounted television point. With windows to the rear, the kitchen has an exit door to the drive and French windows to the garden.
To the split-level first floor are three double bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom to the first floor. The principal bedroom has side and French windows with a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden and farmland.
Bedrooms two and three overlook the front, have laminate flooring and ranges of fitted wardrobes - one currently used as a dressing room.
The family bathroom has a five-piece classic-style white suite comprising pedestal wash hand basin, low flush w.c., bidet, a fully tiled shower cubicle with glazed door and a luxury roll-top claw-foot bathtub with telephone style mixer tap and hand shower.
The gated driveway provides parking for several cars, an attached stone garage with up-and-over door, power and light and, to the far end, has a utility room and houses the central heating boiler. Exquisite and enclosed landscaped gardens to the rear and side enjoy both privacy and splendid views over surrounding farmland, has an orchard and a concrete rendered storage shed measuring 8’ x 10’. For added convenience, there is also an outside tap.
The numerous local facilities include the village Post Office with shop and café, a farm shop in Back Lane and the Eden art gallery with first floor eatery. There are amazing walks along the Leeds Liverpool Canal, through the stunning countryside of the Douglas Valley, Ashurst Beacon and breath-taking views from Parbold Hill.
