A Hidden Gem...End Terrace Cottage...Tucked away on a sought-after private road in the heart of Walkden, this charming white-painted end terrace cottage is a true hidden gem. Dating back to the 1850s, the property combines period character with modern finishes, offering a unique home filled with warmth and personality. The frontage immediately enchants, with a pretty entrance porch, paved seating area and decorative wall features framed by mature planting. The outlook is private and tranquil, with the cottage set back behind its impressive long garden. The garden itself stretches the full length of the plot and is beautifully landscaped, featuring a neatly kept lawn, well-stocked borders and a rockery that adds texture and interest. A cobbled pathway runs the length of the garden, leading to a smart, grey-painted outbuilding which is fully insulated and equipped with power and heating, this versatile space is currently used as a workshop but would also make an ideal home office, studio or hobby room. Directly outside the cottage, a stone patio makes the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation, surrounded by greenery and established hedging that enhance the countryside feel. To the rear, the property enjoys a secure, gated courtyard-style space with cobbled paving that is ideal for off-road parking or use as a private outdoor area. Double gates make vehicle access easy, while the fencing ensures privacy. This rear arrangement strikes the perfect balance between practicality and charm. Inside, the ground floor is full of character yet enhanced with modern comforts. A bright entrance porch opens into a welcoming living room, where a feature fireplace with a log-burning stove forms a cosy focal point. The separate dining room sits at the heart of the home, perfect for family meals or entertaining, and includes useful built-in storage. From here, the home flows seamlessly into a stylish modern kitchen fitted with sleek white units, wood-effect worktops and integrated appliances, with a rear door giving access to the garden and utility/store room. The ground floor also includes a beautifully updated shower room with contemporary tiling, a walk-in shower and modern fixtures. Upstairs, the first floor provides two well-proportioned bedrooms, both filled with natural light. The principal bedroom is a generous double, tastefully decorated with space for wardrobes and furniture, creating a calm retreat. The second double bedroom benefits from dual windows, adding brightness and character, making it ideal as a guest room, child’s room or even a home office. This delightful cottage is perfectly placed for local amenities and transport. Walkden town centre, with its shopping centre, cafes, bars and leisure amenities, is just a short walk away. The area boasts excellent schools including St Andrew’s Methodist Primary (Outstanding). Commuters benefit from direct transport links into Manchester City Centre via the A580 East Lancashire Road, regular bus routes and nearby Walkden train station. For leisure, the Roe Green Loopline and surrounding green spaces offer scenic walks and cycling routes. Altogether, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly unique cottage that blends period charm with modern living, in one of Walkden’s most desirable locations.
