St. Bees Close, ST. HELENS, Merseyside, WA10

Listed 10 Jan 2026 · price reduced 11 Mar 2026 · St Helens
A rare opportunity to purchase a detached stone cottage steeped in local history, set within the grounds of the famous Windleshaw Chantry. Built in 1824, this characterful home enjoys a wonderfully peaceful setting, with attractive views across the historic site and woodland surroundings, while remaining within easy reach of schools, local pubs, bus routes and convenient road links for commuting. The accommodation opens into an entrance hall, which provides a useful reception space and could suit a reading area or welcoming workspace. From here, the home leads through to a spacious sitting room, ideal for everyday relaxing and entertaining, complete with an impressive inglenook-style fireplace that adds further warmth and charm. The fitted kitchen offers practical storage and space for preparing meals, while the generous ground-floor bathroom adds welcome day-to-day convenience. Upstairs are two bedrooms: a particularly spacious principal double bedroom and a second room best suited as a single bedroom, guest room, dressing room or home study. This flexible layout makes the property especially appealing to a single buyer, couple or anyone seeking a character home with dedicated work-from-home space. Externally, there is a private rear courtyard—an inviting spot for outdoor seating, dining or simply enjoying the tranquil surroundings. The separate detached office/hobby room is a valuable addition, fitted with LED lighting, multiple sockets and Ethernet ports, making it ideal for home working, music, crafts, gaming or useful storage. It is presented as a detached office/hobby space rather than additional bedroom accommodation. The property is connected to Virgin Media, with Gigabit ultrafast broadband available, combining period charm with modern connectivity. With exposed stonework, traditional features and a distinctive historic setting, this is a truly individual home that must be viewed to be appreciated.
