This Grade II listed stone cottage, originating from the 18th century, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in a tranquil rural setting on the outskirts of Saddleworth. With spacious accommodation showcasing original character features, including a bespoke staircase and exposed beams, this property offers ample potential for extension and modernization (subject to appropriate permissions). The entrance porch leads to an inviting dining room with a wood burner and French doors opening onto the expansive rear garden. The large lounge also benefits from dual aspect views and an attractive wood burner, enhancing the home's charm.
The country-style kitchen diner features granite worktops and a Belfast sink, complemented by an updated Aga. Additional practical spaces include a utility room, downstairs WC, and boot room. Upstairs are three double bedrooms; the master includes an ensuite with a roll-top bath and separate shower cubicle. An office with fitted furniture adds versatility to the layout.
Externally, there is considerable outdoor space with an attached garage featuring mezzanine storage that could be transformed into additional living space. The two driveways provide convenient parking options alongside beautiful gardens that wrap around the property. The generous patio area leads to a private allotment, greenhouse, and pond—ideal for those looking to cultivate their own produce.
Nestled between Lees, Mossley, and Grotton, this family home enjoys easy access to local schools and Mossley train station for direct links to West Yorkshire and Manchester city centre. This property not only holds historic value but also significant potential for enhancement.
