Main Street, Brinsley

Some homes have a story worth telling. This two-bedroom cottage spent around a century serving Brinsley as the village shop.

Converted into a home in the early 2000s, it now brings together that village history with beamed reception rooms, two log burners and some stylish, unexpected touches.

The ground floor offers plenty of room to spread out, with a kitchen-diner alongside two separate reception rooms.

Currently arranged as a dining room to the front and a living room to the rear, both reception rooms feature exposed beams and their own log burner.

There is a lovely sense of warmth and character here, whether you are gathering friends around the dining table or settling down beside the fire. Upstairs, both bedrooms are generous doubles.

The front bedroom takes a particularly individual approach, with a bath set within the bedroom itself, giving the space something of a boutique retreat feel.

A separate modern shower room serves the first floor. Outside, a driveway provides parking for two vehicles, while the rear garden offers a private, low-maintenance setting for enjoying the sunshine.

It is a lovely spot to sit out as the day slows down, with evening sunsets adding to its appeal.

Positioned towards the end of the village, the cottage is well placed for walks across the surrounding fields.

Brinsley offers a welcoming village setting with countryside close at hand, while nearby bus stops provide connections to Nottingham and Alfreton.

Access to the M1 also makes the location practical for journeys further afield.

With its former life as the village shop, generous rooms and thoughtful modern touches, this is a cottage with a distinctive place in Brinsley’s story and plenty to offer its next owner Disclaimer Important information These particulars have been prepared with reasonable care and are intended to provide a general description of the property.
