3 Manor Cottages, Wrea Green

If you're looking to embrace a slower pace of life within one of Lancashire's most prestigious and peaceful villages, 3 Manor Cottages could be the perfect choice for you. Originally built in the 1800s and formerly a worker's cottage, this two bedroom, three bathroom expansive home was formed after merging two smaller cottages together, creating a fantastic pairing between 19th century character and more modern designs and conveniences. Offered to the market in great condition, with a newly installed electric car charger - this charming cottage is good to go. 

Ground floor

You will enter the property directly into a front porch/boot room, a convenient space for stowing away muddy wellies after long country walks in the local area.

From the entrance porch, the home opens up into a fantastic lounge area. The living room is characterised by beautiful original ceiling beams, as well as a brick fireplace with wood-burning stove. Two double windows provide extensive light into the property, whilst also allowing for a lovely view out across the established gardens to the front of the home.

The lounge leads into the cottage’s huge open-plan kitchen/dining area, a vastly expansive space perfect for hosting loved ones, entertaining friends, and enjoying quiet movie nights under the room's central skylight. The family room includes another characterful fireplace with wood-burning stove, and has plenty of space for a second living room arrangement in conjunction with additional dining furniture. A convenient ground floor WC is also accessed directly from the family room.

The kitchen has been designed with an integrated Hotpoint oven and grill and integrated fridge/freezer, plus ceramic hob, sink with mixer tap, and plumbing space for a dishwasher.

Spanning the entire back wall, multiple arched windows surround a double door, leading out into the cottage’s verdant rear garden. A patio area provides space for al fresco dining, before leading onto a lawned area, corner summerhouse and the property's detached garage.

First floor 

The staircase is located within the family room, and leads up to the cottage’s two bedrooms and family bathroom. The master bedroom spans the entire length of the home and contains built-in storage space, also incorporating an ensuite bathroom facility with walk-in shower, freestanding bath tub, WC and wash basin. The second bedroom is also a fantastic double, overlooking the front of the home and served by the family bathroom. The bathroom consists of a shower cubicle, WC and wash basin.

Externally, the property has beautifully landscaped gardens. The boarders are mature, allowing nature to thrive. The rear garden features an outdoor entertaining area for dining al-fresco as well as a garden office, private driveway and detached garage. This home has recently had an electric car-charger installed too.
