This deceptively spacious three bedroom detached cottage is full of characterful features, complementing its grade II listing status, and offers a workshop/garage, impressive outbuilding and mature gardens

Comment from Oliver Weston of Gascoigne Halman

For anyone looking for a cosy cottage, Cobweb Cottage is the perfect match. The home is beautiful to look at with a charming country style and internally enjoys exposed brick walls, traditional windows, lovely wooden beams, flooring and doors that all help add to the cottage charm. These characteristics and more support its well-deserved grade II listing status.

Externally the home has plenty to offer and can support all sorts of lifestyles and interests. Keen gardeners will enjoy the diverse plot which includes lawned gardens, mature bedding and planting areas and patio spaces.

Those with hobbies, an interest in crafts or in need of a home office, workshop or extra storage will make use of the brilliant outbuildings, which for a property of this style and size are quite extensive.

The driveway to the front extends behind the wooden gates for additional parking and adjoins the single garage which is currently used as a workshop. The connecting outbuilding has been impressively finished throughout and provides two rooms, connected by double glass doors, creating the ideal location for a home office/studio if required or additional reception space, there is also a shower room and a mezzanine level offering storage space.

The cottage itself is rather deceptive and offers a lot more space than one might first expect. Along with the formal entrance porch, the side of the cottage enjoys a utility kitchen which the current owners use day to day as their entrance. This leads though to the kitchen and dining room where the original part of the home and its stunning period features begin. The kitchen contains an eye catching stove with brick surround as a central feature and is one of many aspects of character the cottage offers.

On the ground floor in addition to the previously mentioned rooms, is a dining hall that opens through to the large living room which houses a log burner fireplace, the main entrance hall and the family bathroom.

To the first floor are three double bedrooms, all of strong proportions and enjoying pleasing design.

This is a very unique home with some amazing features that needs to be seen to be fully appreciated so for a personal description of the property or to arrange a viewing, please contact myself or the Gascoigne Halman Tarporley office.
