Property description
A pretty double fronted cottage, this property was built as a home for workers from the local Hatton Water Works in the late 1800s. Renovated to create an open, contemporary home the property has retained many of its original features including numerous original latched doors. Within easy reach of the M6 motorway, Newcastle under Lyne to the North and Stafford to the south, the property is well placed for commuting and for day to day living with the advantage of enjoying the Staffordshire countryside.
From the lane, there is parking for 2/3 vehicles to the rear of the property in front of the detached double garage, whilst there is further on road parking at the front of the cottage. There is a small front garden, which has space for a table and chairs to enjoy morning coffee and the views over the adjacent countryside. The property is entered from the stable door which opens into the large family kitchen.
The kitchen, spacious and modern and has many integrated appliances, including a coffee maker, indoor barbeque, microwave, fridge and freezer all housed under lovely granite work tops. A lovely feature is the original cottage fire and stove, which has on occasions been used by the current owners to cook Christmas lunch. With enough room for a farmhouse table the kitchen is ideal for entertaining and busy family life.
The sitting room is comfortable and cosy and has a multi fuel stove, set in the original brick fireplace. Through double doors one steps through into the good sized conservatory which overlooks the rear garden.
A latched door leads from the sitting room to the stairs which rise to the central first floor landing. To the right is a good sized double bedroom, overlooking the rear garden, whilst at the end of the corridor is a single bedroom with view over fields at the front of the property.
The two first floor bedrooms are served by a family bathroom which is well appointed with a modern oval bath and shower over.
From the landing a further latch door leads to staircase which rises to the second floor master bedroom. Nestled in the smart loft conversation, the master bedroom has three large Velux windows which give wonderful views over the open countryside. There is a very smartly fitted En-Suite shower room and storage cupboards neatly built-in under the eaves.
The rear garden has a paved area and ample fruit bushes and trees, perfect for jam making! Along a gravel path one can access the double garage, with workshop space to the rear, currently being used as a Master Chef style development kitchen for a passionate cook!
