**Swiss Cottage, 89 Worksop Road, Aston **  A Home with History  Built in the early 1920s for the daughter of Aston Hall’s owners, this beautiful five-bedroom semi-detached home carries a fascinating story within its walls. Although she never lived here, her legacy remains — the property went on to serve as the laundry house for the grand estate, quietly becoming part of Aston’s enduring history.  Over the past eighteen years, the current owners have carefully restored and refined every element of the home. What once served a practical purpose has been transformed into a warm and characterful residence, thoughtfully balancing period charm with modern comfort.  A Warm Welcome  Pull onto the private gravel driveway, where the character of the home is immediately apparent. Distinctive and full of charm, Swiss Cottage stands apart from its neighbours, built in the Swiss style for its original intended resident and bringing a touch of storybook romance to the village streetscape.  An original porch shelters the entrance, framing the reinforced front door that opens into a welcoming hallway rich in character. Exposed beams hint at the home’s early heritage, while practical touches such as the understairs cupboard add everyday convenience. From here, the layout flows naturally, with the main lounge to the left and the utility and ground floor shower room to the right, blending function with timeless charm.  Character and Comfort  At the front of the home, the main lounge captures a welcoming sense of warmth and character. Dual aspect windows fill the room with natural light, while the tiled chimney breast and inset log burner create a lovely focal point for relaxed evenings by the fire. Thoughtful details such as fitted storage and twin access doors leading back to the entrance hall reflect both style and practicality.  A couple of steps lead down from the main lounge into the snug, a space that feels instantly inviting. Also enjoying a dual aspect with deep window sills, this charming retreat has underfloor heating and additional internal cavity insulation, ensuring it remains cosy and comfortable even through the depths of winter.  The Heart of the Home  To the rear of the property, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living space forms the true heart of the home. Designed with both practicality and warmth in mind, it’s a beautifully light and social space where family life naturally comes together.  The kitchen is fitted with a host of high-specification appliances including two Neff Slide & Hide ovens, a microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher, induction hob with a built-in retractable extractor fan, an instant boiling tap and a wine fridge, with space for an American-style fridge freezer. Quartz worktops run across generous storage units, while the central island houses the induction hob and features a breakfast bar opposite, creating the perfect spot for casual dining or conversation while cooking.  Cleverly zoned for dining and seating, the space flows effortlessly for both family living and entertaining. Two sets of bifold doors along the rear and side of the extension open the room directly onto the patio and garden beyond, inviting the outdoors in. Subtle plinth lighting beneath the island adds ambience, while a Charnwood multifuel stove provides a cosy focal point at the kitchen end of the room. Underfloor heating ensures year-round comfort, and electric Velux windows in the vaulted ceiling flood the space with natural light.  A beautifully designed and versatile living area, it perfectly balances the home’s original character with a contemporary sense of ease and connection.  Everyday Ease  Off the main entrance hall, the utility and downstairs shower room offer both practicality and style. This well-planned space includes plumbing for a washer and dryer, fitted storage, generous worktop space, a sink, WC and an enclosed shower unit, ideal for busy family life or washing off after time outdoors.  From the kitchen, a side door leads to an enclosed courtyard filled with charm and versatility. Here, a collection of outbuildings provides flexible space for storage and lifestyle use, including an outdoor WC with a hot and cold tap, perfect for rinsing off muddy boots or dogs after a countryside walk.  There is also a log and coal store, along with a fully insulated secure store. One of the outbuildings has already been fitted with glazing and patio doors, creating the perfect opportunity for conversion into a games room, studio or dedicated work-from-home space.  Designed with thoughtful practicality, every element of this home supports modern living while retaining its unique character and warmth.  Restful Retreats  The master bedroom is a spacious and elegant room positioned on the front elevation, with ample space for a super king-sized bed and additional furniture. Rich in character, it features the original fireplace and beautifully restored panelling uncovered during the renovations, adding warmth and authenticity to this calm and inviting space.  Perfectly placed opposite the family bathroom and near to bedroom five, currently used as a dressing room, this layout works wonderfully for modern family life. Bedroom five could easily return to use as a nursery or be transformed into an additional home office, offering flexibility to suit your needs.  A serene and characterful room, the master bedroom captures the essence of this home’s charm, combining period detail with a timeless sense of comfort.  Family Spaces  Beyond the master suite, three further double bedrooms offer generous and versatile accommodation. Accessed from the rear hallway, bedrooms two and three are both good-sized doubles, with plenty of room for additional storage and desks, ideal for teenagers, guests or working from home. These two rooms share a stylish Jack and Jill en suite, fully tiled and featuring a large walk-in shower with a digital wireless remote, a WC and a floating vanity unit with an inset sink, combining practicality with contemporary design.  Bedroom four is another spacious double, served by the family bathroom, which was newly fitted in 2022. Designed with high-quality fixtures and fittings, this elegant space is fully tiled with light flooring and contrasting darker grey wall tiles. The centrally filling Lusso Stone resin bath takes centre stage, accompanied by a sleek vanity unit and sink.  Practical details such as fitted storage, window shutters and an LED heated mirror complete the look, creating a bathroom that feels indulgent yet functional, a calm retreat for the whole family.  Versatile Living  Accessed from the rear hallway, the loft conversion provides two versatile rooms that can be tailored to suit a variety of needs. Perfect as a relaxed snug space for teenagers, a creative studio, dressing room or simply additional storage, this upper level adds a valuable layer of flexibility to the home.  Beautifully finished and thoughtfully designed, it is an area that evolves with family life, offering endless possibilities for how it can be enjoyed and adapted over time.  Outdoor Living  The garden and driveway have been thoughtfully landscaped to create an exceptional outdoor living and entertaining space. Set behind secure electric gates, the rear garden and parking area offer both privacy and peace of mind.  A porcelain-tiled patio runs the full width of the extension, allowing the kitchen, dining and snug areas to flow seamlessly through the bi-fold doors into the garden. This design creates a true sense of indoor-outdoor living, perfect for family gatherings or evenings with friends.  A purpose-built covered area provides year-round enjoyment, complete with heating, lighting, Bluetooth speakers, a built-in BBQ and a gas fire pit. It is the ideal setting for relaxed entertaining, whether hosting summer barbecues or cosy autumn nights by the fire.  Beyond this inviting space, the garden extends to manicured lawns framed by mature trees, offering a private and peaceful retreat where children can play and the family can unwind.  Aston Life  Set within the heart of the sought-after village of Aston, this home offers a wonderful balance of community spirit, countryside calm and modern convenience. With its leafy lanes, period architecture and welcoming atmosphere, Aston provides a village lifestyle that feels both relaxed and well connected.  For everyday enjoyment, the popular Green Bean Café on the A57 is a local favourite for coffee, brunch and weekend catch-ups, while Aston Springs Farm offers a scenic walking trail, fishing lakes and a family-friendly café just moments away. Outdoor enthusiasts will love nearby Rother Valley Country Park, perfect for watersports, cycling or a leisurely Sunday stroll.  For shopping, dining and entertainment, Meadowhall is only a short drive away, home to Cineworld, a wide choice of restaurants and an array of high-end and high-street brands.  Aston’s location also makes travel effortless, with excellent connections to Sheffield, Rotherham and the M1, as well as convenient access to East Midlands airport for both business and leisure travel.  A place where countryside living meets modern convenience, Aston offers a lifestyle that feels both peaceful and perfectly placed.  A home with history, charm and heart, Swiss Cottage has been lovingly reimagined to suit modern family life while celebrating its unique heritage.
