About
Looking for a character cottage with a surprisingly large garden and a substantial garage, used for storage, that has plenty of potential?
This beautifully presented home combines charming original features, stylish modern finishes and a convenient location just a short walk from the centre of Cross Hills.
The property opens directly into the living room, a warm and welcoming space full of charm.
Exposed ceiling timbers, recessed storage and a feature fireplace set within the chimney breast create plenty of character, while there is ample room for sofas and additional furniture.
A staircase rises to the first floor from this room. To the rear is a sleek and contemporary kitchen that has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the available space.
A wide range of wall and base units are complemented by integrated appliances, including a fridge freezer and a Rangemaster style cooker.
There is also space for dining, currently arranged with a breakfast bar and stools. Useful storage is available beneath the staircase, and a rear door leads directly out to the garden.
The first floor offers two well-proportioned bedrooms and a versatile third room. The rear bedroom is a comfortable double with space for wardrobes and additional furniture.
The front bedroom is a generous single room that can also accommodate a small double bed and wardrobes.
The third bedroom is currently used as a dressing room and makeup area but would work equally well as a nursery or home office.
Completing the accommodation is a stylish fully tiled shower room comprising a large walk in shower, wash basin and WC.
Externally, the property benefits from a charming walled front garden with established planting.
The rear garden is a real surprise for a cottage of this type, offering a generous and private outdoor space designed with low maintenance in mind.
Artificial grass, flagged pathways and patio seating areas create a practical and attractive setting. A particular feature is the substantial detached garage measuring approximately 17'6" x 15'.
Used for secure storage and benefitting from light and power, it offers excellent potential for a variety of uses.
Whether as a home office, hobby space, garden room, entertainment area or workshop, it presents an exciting opportunity for future owners.
On street parking is on the opposite side of the road, and the property enjoys a convenient position within walking distance of shops, schools and other village amenities.
A stylish cottage ready to move straight into, ideal for first time buyers, young families and those looking to downsize without compromising on outside space.
NB: The property benefits from a right of access at the rear across neighbouring gardens.
In accordance with the Estate Agents Act 1979, we hereby disclose that the owner of this property is a relative of a member of staff employed by Leightons Estate Agency.
