Woodside Cottage is a truly charming semi-detached period home believed to date back to the 1700s built predominantly of stone beneath a replaced slate roof. The property has been sympathetically improved and lovingly maintained, blending the timeless character of a bygone era with the comforts of modern living including timber-framed double-glazed windows and LPG-fired central heating.
Arranged over two floors, the accommodation exudes warmth and character throughout and in brief comprises; A double-glazed enclosed entrance porch with slate flooring and a studded timber door opens to the hall. A delightful dual-aspect sitting room showcases an impressive inglenook fireplace with a heavy beam, inset wood-burning stove on a slate hearth, exposed ceiling timbers, and a door to a second enclosed porch leading to outside.
The rustic-style kitchen/dining room overlooks the front garden and perfectly captures the cottage’s period charm, featuring a freestanding timber sink unit with deep Belfast style sink, oak double-fronted tall larder cupboard, quarry tiled flooring, tiled recess housing an LPG/electric range cooker, window seat, exposed beams, and an understairs cupboard. A ground floor shower room is fitted with a contemporary white suite including low-level WC, pedestal wash basin, large shower with glazed screen, chrome radiator/towel rail, and a Velux window providing natural light.
A carpeted staircase rises to the landing where there are two double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes and exposed floorboards, along with a third bedroom/dressing room off which is a
shower room ifitted with a white and chrome suite comprising a low-level WC, corner wash basin, corner shower enclosure, and chrome radiator/towel rail.
