A charming, newly renovated two bed detached cottage.
Boasting lots of pretty, eye-catching kerb appeal and brimming with charm, this truly one-of-a-kind detached stone cottage dates back to the mid-1800s and stands out as a unique offering on today's market. Thoughtfully refurbished by the current owners, the home presents a rare opportunity to acquire a character-filled, move-in-ready residence. Perfectly suited to a variety of buyers—from young professionals to those seeking to downsize while maintaining a detached lifestyle—this beautiful property enjoys an enviable position on the sought-after Park Road in Billinge. Set in a quiet and picturesque semi-rural location, it also offers convenient access to local shops, schools, scenic trails and walks, as well as excellent transport links.
Internally, the cottage benefits from gas central heating and full double glazing, and is arranged over two floors. All the rooms have been freshly decorated with newly plastered walls and ceilings throughout most the accommodation. The layout includes a welcoming porch, a modern kitchen extension fitted with stylish Shaker-style units, and two generous reception rooms—each with feature fireplaces, including a cosy wood-burning stove and a living flame gas fire. Upstairs, you’ll find two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a contemporary shower room.
Externally, the property features charming cottage-style gardens, with the rear garden being particularly well stocked and benefitting from a sunny, south-facing aspect that allows for all-day sunshine. To the front, there are two driveways providing ample off-road parking.
