Description
Sought after setting
Nestled in the heart of Newmillerdam, a prestigious village on the leafy outskirts of Wakefield, convenience and high spec living combine with peace and privacy at Nook Cottage.
Taken back to its iconic stone and refurbished throughout, this classic character home has been enhanced for modern living. The addition of a stunning new 100sq metre extension, one of the only redevelopments in Newmillerdam to be done in true Yorkshire stone, really makes for an impressive residence, with a brand-new driveway, a new roof and fully landscaped outside space completing the renovation.
Park up on the newly laid driveway, where there is parking for two cars and take the steps down to discover Nook Cottage, tucked away just beyond the drive.
Contemporary chic
Making your way indoors the minimalist, contemporary design of the home is instantly revealed within the large entrance hallway, where there is coat and boot storage alongside a seating area.
Designed with modern living in mind, the capacious open plan kitchen-living-dining area can be found off the entrance hall.
Feast your eyes
Finished to the highest of standards, luxury laminate flooring flows out underfoot whilst bifolding doors with internal blinds, run the full length of the living-dining area, open to the garden, bringing the outdoors in and inviting alfresco dining throughout the summer months. The high ceiling, sprinkled with skylights, draws in an abundance of light.
Congregate together around the central island, luxuriously topped in a luxurious resin worktop which can withstand chopping and hot pans. Relax and unwind in front of the television in the living area. Designed to provide spaces in which to mingle, alongside pockets of privacy, there is room for all at Nook Cottage.
Wine and dine
Handleless black and gold cabinetry provides plenty of storage, stylishly finished. Integrated appliances include an oven, hob, extractor hood, sink, fridge, freezer and dishwasher, enabling you to wine and dine, and entertain with ease. Undercounter and plinth lighting adds an ambient glow in the evenings.
Turning left from the kitchen, step through to the inner hallway, where light showers down from the skylight above. A utility cupboard provides plumbing and power for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Soak and sleep
Continue along to the right to arrive at the first of the bedrooms. Carpeted in plush grey, with a private ensuite, refresh and revive beneath the drench head of the shower. Black fittings add a mature elegance to this shower room, which is also furnished with a two-drawer vanity unit wash basin, mirror and WC.
Next door, a second spacious double bedroom awaits, with French doors opening out to a private bistro patio, perfect for a morning coffee and croissant. Exposed beams retained from the original cottage infuse the room with character, softened by the plush carpet underfoot.
Sophistication and style
With space for all your furniture, this bedroom is conveniently situated next door to the family bathroom, where a P-shaped bath is set upon a plinth and fitted with an overhead shower. Black fixtures again add a sense of style and sophistication, with a two-drawer vanity unit wash basin and WC. Beach-house style wood-effect tiling to the walls adds to the elegance of the bathroom.
Rustic, tactile exposed stone accompanies you as you ascend the stairs to the third of the double bedrooms. Oozing character, exposed beams retaining their original hooks embellish the high, vaulted ceiling whilst exposed brick walls evoke a cosy hayloft ambience, balanced by an abundance of light, flooding in through the large windows to two sides. Carpeted underfoot, with traditional cast-iron effect radiator, this lofty bedroom is a private and peaceful, secluded sanctuary.
A versatile home; each bedroom brims with its own unique character, each a 'master' suite.
Private oasis
Outside, soak up the sunshine on the two spacious, stone patios to the front and rear of the home, private, peaceful and perfectly low maintenance, with raised beds in which to grow your own. Illuminated by external lighting, these areas are ideal for relaxing and unwinding or entertaining family and friends.
OWNER QUOTE: "The lovely large patio is so sunny and secluded, its perfect for sitting and enjoying a glass of wine in the sunshine, hidden from view from passers by."
