Situated on the highly sought-after Boundary Lane in Mossley, this charming three-bedroom detached cottage presents a rare and exclusive opportunity, having never before been offered on the open market. Originally built in 1865, the property is steeped in local history and was once a well-known corner shop named ‘Legges’.
Today, the home retains an abundance of character and period features, beautifully blended with comfortable modern living. Set within an easy-to-maintain, south-facing garden, the cottage offers a bright and welcoming setting that is sure to appeal to a wide range of buyers.
Internally, the entrance hall provides access to all ground floor accommodation. The solid oak cottage-style kitchen features traditional quarry tiled flooring, while the spacious open-plan lounge and dining area forms the heart of the home. Here, an inset gas stove sits within a striking stone surround, with a truly special feature being the mantelpiece, crafted from an original roof beam from the property itself. The room offers ample space for dining and benefits from sliding doors that open out onto the charming rear garden.
Upstairs, the landing is enhanced by a beautiful arched window and leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, a charming three-piece family bathroom, and a separate modern shower room.
Externally, the property enjoys a wonderful sun trap rear garden designed for low maintenance with paved patio and decorative stone areas, complemented by mature greenery and an array of attractive potted plants. It provides a lovely space to relax and unwind. The property also benefits from an attached garage with internal access from the garden, driveway parking, and an additional space in front of the garage.
A distinctive home rich in history and character, offering a rare chance to acquire a truly special property in a desirable and well-regarded location.
