The Property

Rose Cottage is a very pretty stone cottage situated in a peaceful lane on the outskirts of Hedley on the Hill.

Climbing plants around the front door make for an attractive entrance into the porch, which opens into the sitting room with its bow window, beamed ceiling, character stone fireplace with open fire and carved wooden staircase to the first floor. Off the sitting room is another good-sized room with built-in cupboard, currently used as the principle bedroom, but that could easily be set out as another reception room. A wooden loft ladder provides access to attic storage.

To the other side of the sitting room a door leads through into rear corridor, from which the dining room, kitchen and bathroom are accessed. Like the sitting room, each of these rooms to the rear have exposed wooden beams and features, and lovely views from traditional-style leaded windows across the leafy garden. This garden can be accessed from the kitchen via French doors onto a decked area. The bathroom features a wonderful free-standing roll-top bath, so in keeping with the style of the property, with a shower head attachment for convenience. Beside the bathroom a rear porch leads out onto the patio.

The current owners have developed plans for the decked area to be converted into a conservatory, creating wonderful additional living accommodation overlooking the rear garden.

Up the impressive wooden staircase is a delightful bedroom in the eaves with light flooding in from the dual windows and further access to the attic storage.

Externally

To the front of Rose Cottage is parking on the paved drive for several cars and a secluded lawn with the summerhouse tucked away. Access through a side gate leads to a patio area, the workshop with electricity and a decked seating area. Mature trees and bushes provide a feeling of privacy.

Honesty, integrity and forward-thinking are at the forefront of our business and we are here to take the stress out of your property transactions.
