Nestled in a prominent location in the heart of Castleton, this charming 3 bedroom cottage boasts a rich history and period features that tell a story of its own.

The cottage formerly bore the name of the Douglas Museum, as it was owned by the Douglas family until the 1970s. Rudolph Osborne Douglas, a former proprietor, was a British silversmith and a hobbyist escapologist who is rumoured to have created tricks for Harry Houdini. The museum was famous for its collection of curiosities, and a small entrance fee was charged to visitors.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious living area that flows seamlessly into the well-appointed kitchen, creating an ideal space for family gatherings and entertaining. The three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, while the large family bathroom adds a touch of luxury to everyday living. With a private garden that offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, this cottage is a true hidden gem waiting to be discovered. Tax Band D and EPC Rating D.

Outside, a paved courtyard adorned with a flower box and a charming stone-built garden wall to the front of the cottage adds to the cottage's character, creating a welcoming outdoor space. A stone gravelled pathway that winds its way through the side of the cottage, leading to a picturesque backyard that beckons you to unwind and relax in its serene surroundings. The beautiful and intimate garden, enclosed by a stone-built dwarf wall, features lush greenery and a manicured lawn that serves as the perfect backdrop for entertaining family and friends. Complete with a small garden shed for added storage, this outdoor oasis is a true extension of the indoor living space, offering a peaceful retreat to enjoy all year round.
