Tucked away up a private driveway just off Gledhow Lane, this beautiful period cottage bungalow is one of the original buildings of the area, dating back to around 1870. The newly renovated property is sure to appeal to discerning downsizers, professional couples or even families looking for a great location close to popular schools.

The property has an attractive frontage with new aluminium windows in a period pebble grey colour and original limestone steps leading to the entrance.

To the right, the expansive master bedroom features fresh cream carpets, crisp white walls, and two large windows that flood the room with natural light.

At the heart of the home is the living-dining room, where the cottage's traditional charm has been skilfully revealed. Gorgeous original wooden beams and an exposed brick fireplace evoke warmth and history, while a newly installed log burner adds character and comfort for cosy nights in. Lime-plastered walls and period-style column radiators perfectly blend old-world charm with modern convenience.

The living-dining room flows effortlessly into the lounge, which features bifold doors that open up the back of the house to the patio, seamlessly merging indoor and outdoor spaces. The natural stone-tiled patio is ideal for alfresco dining, and the lush garden beyond creates a private, serene retreat.

The generously proportioned kitchen is open to the dining space, creating a sociable area for entertaining. Featuring elegant tiles, limestone grey cabinetry with gold handles and gleaming white quartz countertops, it's both stylish and functional, with premium AEG cookers and hob, and integrated appliances neatly concealed for a sleek finish.
