*EX-LOCK KEEPER'S COTTAGE!!* *WATERSIDE FRONTAGE!* Brimming with character and fabulous, idyllic setting at DUTTON LOCKS! Fantastic, large GARDEN! Good condition throughout! An amazing, life-changing, opportunity! Call NOW to view!
This beautiful semi-detached period cottage offers a remarkable lifestyle for whoever is lucky enough to become its next custodian. Situated adjacent to 'Dutton Locks', known for its beautiful natural environment by boaters, walkers, horse riders and those who appreciate the area's history, this is a chance to live in an idyllic location yet just a short distance to all key amenities - the village of Weaverham is a five minute drive while the popular 'Leigh Arms' pub is less than a mile's walk. To get to the property via Acton Bridge 'Bridge' opposite the aforementioned Leigh Arms Pub down an access only road, even arriving home is an experience to savour as you make your way along the riverside. Returning from a hard day's graft could seldom be so invigorating. Quality of life is what this home offers, and a quality that is simply incomparable to anything else on the market at this price point.
Beyond the magical setting, the cottage itself has real substance. Brimming with character, from the carefully replicated windows to a multi-fuel stove which runs the full central heating system and hot water, to the remarkably high ceilings, it exudes charm yet delivers on practicality too. There is a solar hot water panel on the roof providing hot water throughout the summer, spring and autumn and as a supplement to other forms of heating on sunny, winter days: this home can be as gentle on the purse as it is on the eye! Two reception rooms, a breakfast room, kitchen, three bedrooms, a shower room, out-house utility room... there are virtually no compromises here. There are further out buildings including a large summer house and workshop to make the most of long summer days. There is also a garden toilet - you'll never get caught short when nurturing your flower beds! Ultimately, the outside is as important to this property, if not more so, than the inside.
The garden stretches some 100 feet from the back of the house, gently tiered to make the most of the views of the river, locks and developing woodland. This can be accessed via a gate to the rear of the garden. To the front is further garden that could, subject to relevant consents, become a private driveway in the future. Parking is no issue, however, as there is plentiful space waterside immediately in front of the house.
This is an extraordinary opportunity to invest in yourself, and to make this beautiful cottage, and magnificent environment, your next home.
