Nestled in a highly desirable and picturesque location, this simply enchanting end-terraced cottage enjoys uninterrupted views over the serene waters of Whitewell Brook to the rear. The property presents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a harmonious blend of traditional rustic charm and tasteful modern living. Set over four well-appointed floors and benefiting from gas central heating and double glazing throughout, this home offers spacious and versatile accommodation ideally suited to a variety of lifestyles.
Tucked away on a quaint and characterful street, the property immediately evokes a sense of warmth and welcome. The entrance porch, generous in size, provides an ideal space for storing coats, shoes, and outdoor gear. This leads directly into the heart of the home, the bespoke fitted kitchen. Thoughtfully designed with both style and functionality in mind, the kitchen features a range of custom-built wall and base units, complemented by elegant hardwood worktops that offer ample space for meal preparation. A suite of integrated appliances, including an oven, hob, and extractor fan, further enhances the kitchen's appeal, making it a delight for both everyday cooking and entertaining guests. A staircase leads from the kitchen down to a useful cellar, which offers excellent storage potential and is perfectly suited for conversion into a laundry area, wine store, or hobby room.
The ground floor also comprises a substantial and beautifully presented main living room. Spanning approximately 168 square feet, this welcoming space centres around an inset open fire place, which creates a focal point and adds to the overall sense of warmth and comfort. Ideal for quiet evenings at home or gathering with family and friends, the room flows effortlessly into the adjoining open plan sitting and dining area. With expansive glazing to the rear, this space is bathed in natural light and enjoys tranquil views over the garden and the brook beyond. French doors provide direct access to the rear patio, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living and making this an ideal space for entertaining during the warmer months.
To the first floor, the accommodation continues to impress. The principal bedroom, located at the rear of the property, takes full advantage of its idyllic setting, offering calming views over Whitewell Brook. A second, single bedroom is positioned to the front of the home and benefits from far-reaching views across the valley, ideal as a guest room, nursery, or home office. The contemporary bathroom is finished to a high standard and comprises a panelled bath with overhead shower, pedestal wash hand basin, and a low-level W/C, all set against stylish tiling.
The first-floor landing, unusually generous in size, benefits from a front-facing window and offers ample space for a desk or reading nook—an ideal solution for those working from home. From this level, a staircase rises to the second floor, where a superb third bedroom awaits. This room is notable for its impressive, vaulted ceiling, which adds a real sense of height and openness, and is enhanced by a large front-facing window that fills the space with natural light. Whether used as a guest suite, teenager’s retreat, or a creative studio, this room provides exceptional flexibility.
Externally, the property continues to deliver. To the front, a traditional palisaded garden adds to the cottage’s curb appeal, while to the rear, a beautifully maintained paved patio leads to an established, planted garden. This private and peaceful outdoor space enjoys unobstructed views over the brook and is the perfect spot for al fresco dining, gardening, or simply unwinding at the end of the day.
Positioned on the edge of open countryside, and playing field, this charming cottage offers easy access to scenic walking routes, making it a dream location for outdoor enthusiasts. Water Primary School is not far away and the popular Water Trough Cafe is but a stone’s throw away, offering coffee, cake, lunch and brunch. Despite its tranquil setting, the property remains well connected to nearby towns and transport links, making it an ideal base for commuters seeking rural calm without sacrificing convenience.
In summary, this exceptional home represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive property in a much sought-after location. With its perfect combination of character, comfort, and practicality, early viewing is strongly encouraged to fully appreciate all that is on offer.
