INDIVIDUAL COTTAGE | DETACHED ONE-BEDROOM ANNEXE | SECLUDED POSITION

Hidden away off the sought-after Swan Bank, Swan Cottage is a distinctive and beautifully presented four bedroom semi-detached home, complemented by a superb detached one-bedroom annexe. Offering over 2,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation across both dwellings, this exceptional property has been thoughtfully updated and enhanced by the current owner and must be viewed to be fully appreciated.

Enjoying a tucked-away position within a highly regarded residential location, the property combines privacy and tranquillity with excellent convenience. Local shops, schools and everyday amenities are all within easy reach, whilst the A500 and M6 motorway provide superb commuter links.

The main residence offers spacious and characterful accommodation throughout. The welcoming dining kitchen features attractive exposed brickwork, while a useful WC/utility room adds practicality. The standout lounge provides an impressive living space, centred around a dual-sided log-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

To the first floor, a bright and airy landing leads to four double bedrooms, with the principal having a dressing room, and a large four-piece family bathroom, perfectly suited to modern family living.

Externally, the property occupies a substantial plot with ample off-road parking, a private rear garden and a detached garage serving the annexe. The annexe itself offers excellent flexibility, comprising an open-plan living room and kitchen, a double bedroom and shower room.
