Features and description

  • Tenure: Freehold
Ryan James is excited to introduce The Corner Cottage in Low Etherley, a beautifully and thoroughly renovated single-storey family home that perfectly combines the charm of a period property with modern living standards and expectations. The renovation was completed in December 2024.

Situated in the desirable semi-rural village of Low Etherley, the property has significant curb appeal, from the prominent position it occupies which points to the gem within.

Originally constructed in 1850 as part of a stable block for the Stobart family, Corner Cottage was later converted into homes for their employees. After serving as a cherished family residence for several decades, it now presents itself as a spacious 1370 square feet, single-storey family home featuring high-quality materials and fittings throughout. The property is now seeking new owners to appreciate this wonderful home and its surrounding area.

As you enter the house, you are welcomed by a inviting hallway that opens up to a spacious living room with a ceiling height of 3 metres. This room features a media wall with adjustable lighting, practical storage solutions, and a 2KW electric flame effect fireplace. The flooring is made of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) with an oak effect, and the dimensions of the room are quite generous.

From the living room, you can access the impressive dining kitchen, which also features a rear access door to the property and a feature timber framed beam set within a 4.2 meter heigh ceiling. The flooring consists of luxury vinyl tile (LVT) in an oak effect. This beautiful kitchen features integrated AEG appliances, including two fridge/freezers, a microwave oven, a double oven, an induction hob with an extractor, a washer/dryer, and a dishwasher, along with a boiling tap. All of this is complemented by luxurious quartz countertops, matching upstands, and a table feature.

From the hallway near the front door, you can access a double bedroom featuring a large window. This room also provides entry to the loft area, which includes a window and a Velux roof light, accessible via a hatch and ladder. The gas boiler is fitted in this loft area.

The bathroom is equipped with a prominent free standing bathtub, a separate double shower area, a WC, and a sink with storage. It also features a mirror unit, which includes anti-fog functionality and a Bluetooth speaker, as well as separate wall-mounted storage. In addition to the central heating radiator, there is an electric towel rail for added convenience. The flooring is finished with luxury vinyl tiles (LVT).

One area that can be further utilized is the loft, which was previously used as an additional bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. Subject to obtaining the necessary consents (Building Regulations and, if appropriate, Planning Permission), there is an opportunity to create more than 400 square feet of new living space—potentially adding another bedroom, ensuite, and dressing room, if the new owner wishes to maximize their living area.

Externally, the property includes a single garage and parking space for two cars, along with a landscaped garden that offers ample seating space. There is also a right of way over the driveway to the gates of No. 130 next door.

The property now features brand-new heating and stylish column radiators, and partial new double glazing, all of which enhance its aesthetic appeal and improve energy efficiency. Comprehensive insulation has been installed in the roof and external walls, ensuring the property remains warm and energy-efficient year-round.

Corner Cottage also comes with the reassurance of warranties covering the heating and kitchen appliances, providing peace of mind for the future homeowner. The property is connected to mains electricity, mains gas, sewerage, and water, and fibre broadband is now available.
