A splendid opportunity to purchase a curiously and idyllically situated detached cottage of unusual yet appealing design and character. Offering very adaptable accommodation and having plenty of space externally and in its own secluded grounds, nestled at the head of a private lane on the outskirts of the affluent village of Mossley, the property enjoys a natural degree of privacy yet within easy reach of Congleton Town Centre, local amenities, schools, railway station and golf courses.
Complemented with Solar Panel Technology, Grange Cottage boasts generous accommodation laid over two floors plus a rather intriguing split level lounge. The top floor provides the three large bedrooms and two bathrooms whilst the ground floor offers an immense amount of flexibility. The cosy farmhouse dining kitchen with a distinct homily feel is the social family centre of this home and even comes with its own bar area!
The unusually designed split level lounge is a fantastic room with huge solid fuel stove making it an inviting, relaxing reception room. The ground floor also comprises a quaint snug which would allow use as a fourth bedroom. There is a large utility/workroom that could see use as so many things, those of you who run a business from home will enjoy the fact this space has external access and plenty of storage but this same space could see a straightforward conversion into an annex should you require (subject to planning etc).
Outside is equally as impressive and the gated courtyard driveway gives way to a vast triple garage and covered store as well as a beautiful garden with summer house, plus there is a further compound area included with vegetable plot and outbuilding.
