About this home
**CHARMING 250-YEAR-OLD TWO BEDROOM COTTAGE IN BLACKROD WITH ORIGINAL FEATURES & PANORAMIC VIEWS**
Two Reception Rooms with Kitchen and Rear Extension – Full of Character with Original Cottage Doors & Beams – Move In Condition with Scope to Add Your Own Stamp – Panoramic Views to Rear – No Chain & Vacant Possession
An excellent opportunity to purchase this beautifully characterful two bedroom mid-terrace stone cottage, dating back approximately 250 years, set on the popular Church Street Road in Blackrod. Brimming with charm, the home retains original cottage doors and exposed beams, while also benefiting from a rear extension, garden and off road parking, along with stunning views towards Rivington.
The property is offered with no onward chain and vacant possession, making it ideal for first-time buyers, buy-to-let investors (with potential rental income of up to £950pcm), or those looking to downsize to a characterful yet manageable home. Internally, the cottage is deceptively spacious and unique, offering two separate reception rooms, two generous double bedrooms and a well-proportioned layout throughout. The location is highly sought after, close to a wide range of amenities in Blackrod village, as well as excellent local schools including the highly rated Blackrod Primary (Ofsted "Outstanding") and Owls Nursery nearby. Blackrod train station is within walking distance, providing direct links to Manchester in approximately 30 minutes, while the M61 (Junction 6) and Middlebrook Retail Park are also easily accessible. The surrounding countryside, including Rivington and Haigh Hall, offers fantastic walking and cycling routes.
Upon entering the home, a uPVC door leads into the hallway with access to a spacious lounge at the front and a large dining room to the rear, complete with understairs storage. The stairs to the firstfloor have a wonderful large window on the landing with views over Rivington. The kitchen is located at the rear featuring a range of wall and base units, access to the conservatory/utility room with direct access to the garden. There is also a w.c off the extension.
To the first floor, there are two large double bedrooms, including the rear bedroom which enjoys open views towards Rivington. These are served by a large three-piece tiled bathroom suite with bath and overhead shower and ample storage. Externally, the property benefits from ample on-street parking to the front via Church Street. To the rear, there is a well-sized flagged patio area which can either be a south-facing garden, enjoying sun throughout the day, or used as off road parking.
Properties of this age and character, especially those offering original features, gardens, parking and views, rarely come to market in this area and are expected to generate strong interest. Early viewing is highly recommended.
