Energy Rating 73 (Band C), Council Tax Band A
A most attractive 2 bedroomed stone-built cottage tucked away just off Nields Road on the much sought after Elms Hill. It occupies an elevated position and therefore enjoys some fabulous views far across the valley towards Pole Moor. The property dates back to the 1870s when it formed part of a larger property believed to have been a Victorian dyehouse. It is full of character, charm and quirkiness which will appeal to many a potential purchaser. Externally, it has a sizeable parking bay with steps up to a good-sized front garden, whilst at the rear, you step out to a paved sitting area which has access up to a large, decked sun terrace. It is conveniently placed for access to Nields Road Junior School, and just a short walk down into the village where you will find a range of shops, bars, cafes, restaurants, train station, and regular bus service.
Accommodation

The front entrance door opens into:-
Hall
With staircase rising to the first floor, exposed stone feature wall with mounted coat hooks, natural wood floorboards, beams, and access to a useful under stairs storage cupboard.
Lounge (5.7m x 4.4m)
A really good sized room having a multi-fuel stove set into the chimney breast with a stone hearth and lintel. There is a TV plinth to one side of the chimney breast and shelved former doorway recess to the other. Stone mullioned windows to the front offer delightful views and have meter cupboards beneath.

Dining Room (3.68m x 2.36m)
This later extension is open to the pitch of the roof and has a bank of windows to the rear, French doors leading out to the stone flagged patio, exposed stonework feature wall, and finished with wood effect flooring. Another opening then takes you into:-
Kitchen
A quirky ‘L’ shaped kitchen which is fitted with a range of wall, drawer and base units providing much more storage than expected along with ample shelving. The work surface incorporates a stainless steel sink with mixer tap and has tiled splashbacks over. There is space and plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher, space for a fridge/freezer, cupboard housing the central heating boiler, a gas & electric cooker with extractor hood over, and integrated bin.
