Description

This exquisite two-bedroom cottage is beautifully tucked away in a peaceful and secluded location, yet is only a short walk from Centre Vale Park, Todmorden High School, and excellent transport links. With stunning scenic walks right on your doorstep, it offers the perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience.

The property boasts generously proportioned accommodation, complemented by gardens to both the front and rear, along with additional approx.. 2 acres of land that extends into the surrounding woodland, creating a truly unique outdoor setting.

A further benefit is the detached outbuilding, which, subject to the necessary planning permissions, offers exciting potential for conversion into a home office, studio, additional living accommodation, or guest space. Alternatively, it could serve as an ideal workshop or hobby room.

This charming cottage is presented to the market with no onward chain, making it an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a characterful home in an idyllic setting.

Ground Floor:

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a useful entrance porch, providing the perfect space for hanging coats and storing shoes. From here, you step into the spacious living room, a warm and inviting reception area that offers ample space for both relaxing and entertaining while retaining the cottage's charming character.

Living Room:

This exceptionally spacious living room is full of character and charm, boasting an array of original features throughout. The focal point is the impressive stone fireplace, which is Grade II listed in its own right, showcasing the property's rich history and heritage. This inviting space offers the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining while embracing the timeless appeal of this wonderful cottage.

Kitchen:

The modern kitchen is well appointed with a range of fitted wall and base units, offering ample storage and workspace. Beautiful character features, including the exposed stone wall, blend seamlessly with the contemporary fittings, creating a stylish yet traditional feel.

Adjoining the kitchen is a wonderful pantry, a truly unique feature of the home. With its charming curved entrance, exposed stone walls, fitted shelving, and additional storage space, it provides both practicality and an abundance of character. Direct access to the rear garden.

Utility Room:

A further addition to the home is the well-appointed utility room, offering additional fitted cupboards, space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a further sink for added convenience. Designed to complement the kitchen, the utility room features the same modern finish, providing a practical and cohesive extension of the living space.

External:

Externally, this wonderful cottage enjoys a generous front garden, providing an attractive outdoor space to relax and appreciate the peaceful surroundings. Convenient parking is available adjacent to the property.
A unique feature of this home is the detached Grade II listed outbuilding, which is included within the sale. Although requiring full repair and renovation, it offers an exciting opportunity for the new owner to create additional versatile accommodation or workspace, subject to the necessary planning permissions and listed building consents. Whether transformed into a home office, studio, workshop, or ancillary living space, this building provides exceptional potential to further enhance this distinctive property.

To the rear, the cottage benefits from a spacious garden enjoying beautiful far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside. This tranquil outdoor area provides the perfect setting for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the idyllic rural environment.

Adding further appeal is the additional land included within the sale, extending to approximately 2 acres and leading into the nearby woodland. This rare feature creates an exceptional sense of privacy and seclusion, offering a wonderful natural space to explore and enjoy throughout the seasons.

First Floor:

Bedroom One and En-Suite:

Bedroom One is a generously proportioned double bedroom. Adjoining the bedroom is the well-presented en-suite bathroom, finished with a white tiled surround. The en-suite is fitted with a bath, wash hand basin, and WC, providing both practicality and comfort.

Bedroom Two:

Bedroom Two is another generously sized double bedroom, comparable in size to the principal bedroom. This well-presented room benefits from fitted wardrobes, providing an excellent storage solution while maximising the available floor space.

Shower Room:

The shower room has been recently renovated to a high standard and is presented in a contemporary style. It features a stylish walk-in shower, wash hand basin, and WC, complemented by modern laminate flooring to create a sleek and practical finish.

Second Floor:

Additional Room:

The attic space provides a large additional room, which cannot currently be classified as a bedroom due to the existing access arrangements. The room benefits from a large Velux window, allowing the space to be flooded with natural light and creating a versatile area that could be utilised as a storage room, craft room, home office, or occasional guest bedroom.

Subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations, there may be potential to install a suitable staircase, which could allow this space to be formally considered as an additional bedroom, further enhancing the versatility and appeal of this unique property.

Hansons Opinion:

Hanson's are delighted to offer this wonderful cottage to the market, recognising it as a truly exceptional home nestled within a peaceful countryside setting, yet conveniently located only a short distance from local amenities, schools, transport links, and Centre Vale Park.

This charming property offers the perfect blend of character, history, and modern living, with a wealth of original features complemented by contemporary improvements throughout. Externally, the cottage benefits from both front and rear gardens, along with approximately 2 acres of additional woodland that extends down towards the main road. This rare and unique feature provides an ideal opportunity for those who enjoy the outdoors, exploring nature, and appreciating a tranquil setting.

The property is offered to the market with no onward chain. Please note that, due to the Grade II listed status of the property, it is exempt from requiring an EPC.
