The property

Traditional stone fronted cottage enjoying a quiet edge of village location with spectacular views towards Staerough Hill.

  • Thimbles

    Thimbles is a striking stone built semi-detached cottage, which was architect built and finished in 2019 to an exacting standard. The accommodation extending to approx. 121m2 is rather deceptive from the outside and internally offers a well-planned and proportioned layout with bright and spacious accommodation completed to a very high specification throughout by the previous owner. A large dining hall welcomes you into the property, with high ceilings, filled with natural light and finished in fresh neutral tones. Off the hallway is a small utility room with WC and wash hand basin. The open plan kitchen/living, is truly the heart of this home, with gloss wall and base units and integrated appliances, makes the perfect spot for entertaining family & friends. Two sets of patio doors lead out to the enclosed tiered rear garden, walking out onto a resin bound layer with steps which leads up to the top, mainly made up of shrubbery. Adjoining the house is a single garage with electric up and over door which could host a car whilst also providing external storage/useful workshop space. There is also the added benefit of solar panels, which ensures running costs are kept low. The property enjoys the most fantastic uninterrupted outlooks with views towards Staerough hill, which are maximised and can be enjoyed from the upstairs gallery landing and master bedroom windows, which really bring the countryside indoors. This would make a lovely forever home for someone to downsize to, or equally would be suited as a perfect lock up and leave holiday/second home.
