What this property offers
About this property
Approached via a traditional cobbled courtyard, the property immediately exudes character and warmth. Stepping inside, you are welcomed through a hallway into an impressively spacious open-plan living and dining area, offering ample room for both lounge and dining furniture. This inviting space showcases original beams and exposed stone features, adding to the cottage’s timeless appeal, while useful under-stairs storage enhances practicality.
A couple of steps lead up to the kitchen, thoughtfully arranged with a range of wall and base units, built-in hob and oven, sink and space for a small fridge and washer/dryer. From here, a door opens onto the rear courtyard, which provides shared access to a secluded garden area and an outside brick shed — ideal for additional storage. There is also off road parking available in front of this property.
To the first floor, the property offers a generous double bedroom with views to a lovely neighbouring garden and a well-proportioned single bedroom with built-in storage. A family bathroom with shower over bath completes the accommodation. Throughout, the home boasts charming character features including stone accents, original beams and traditional cottage-style wooden doors and windows.While some areas would benefit from modernisation, the property is perfectly liveable as presented and offers a wonderful opportunity for a first-time buyer, downsizer or investor to put their own stamp on a characterful home in a highly desirable location.
The cottage enjoys an enviable setting just a short walk from Marple train station, providing a convenient 30-minute commute into Manchester Piccadilly. Nearby Town Street offers a vibrant selection of independent amenities including cafés and restaurants such as Libby’s and The Maple Tree, the popular Town Street Fryer, three well-regarded pubs including The Post Office, Dutson’s delicatessen, a pharmacy, GP practice and dentist, along with a range of other local shops. Excellent schooling options are close at hand, including Mellor and Ludworth Primary Schools and St. Mary’s RC Primary. For lovers of the outdoors, Brabyn’s Park, Etherow Country Park and the scenic Peak Forest Canal are all within easy reach. The property also benefits from being on the bus route between New Mills and Stockport.
An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the charm, space and potential this delightful cottage has to offer.
