Description

A Truly Unique Detached Cottage with Character, Charm, and Modern Comforts

Tucked away in a peaceful yet highly convenient location, this beautifully restored 1879 former mill owner's cottage is a rare find — a home that effortlessly blends historic charm with modern updates.

Lovingly cared for by the same family for over 35 years, this detached property is now ready for a new chapter. Set back from the main road in a private and desirable spot off Kings Road, it offers a perfect retreat while being just moments from excellent amenities, transport links, and schools.

Recently upgraded to a high standard, the home features:

External wall insulation with silicone render

UPVC double glazing throughout

100mm roof insulation

An efficient electric central heating system

A stunning contemporary kitchen

A stylish, newly fitted bathroom suite


Step inside to discover a spacious, welcoming hallway leading into a tastefully decorated living room complete with a characterful log burner. The large, light-filled kitchen boasts an abundance of storage with modern units and a central island — ideal for cooking and entertaining. A separate dining room provides access to a useful cellar space, offering additional storage or potential for creative use.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three generously sized double bedrooms and a sleek, modern family bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower, WC, and wash basin.

Outside, the home enjoys a charming patio area — perfect for al fresco dining, relaxing with a coffee, or hosting summer get-togethers. There is also a versatile outbuilding that could serve as extra storage, a workshop, or even a home office.

Why You'll Love It

Plus, for nature lovers, Saddleworth’s beautiful villages, Dovestone Reservoir, and the Peak District National Park are all just a short drive away — offering weekend escapes on your doorstep.
