Burdock Hill, Salterforth, BB18

We are delighted to offer this unusually large, semi-detached cottage, previously two cottages made into one, which has been substantially increased in size by the addition of a huge, two storey extension running the full length of the back of the original dwelling. This truly fabulous family home has the advantage of being set in a highly desirable village location and is surrounded by beautiful open countryside, with wonderful, picturesque views from both the front and rear.

Boasting numerous alluring attributes, which can only be fully appreciated by internal viewing, this exceptional abode has a good sized forecourt and low maintenance front garden, a small garage and a delightful rear garden, directly overlooking the adjoining fields, with spectacular, long distance views beyond. Although the cottage does require some improvement and maintenance, this is more than amply reflected in the very reasonable asking price.

Benefiting from gas central heating and majority double glazing, this outstanding and unique property briefly comprises an entrance porch, an open plan living room and dining room, with a splendid, floor to ceiling stone fireplace between the two rooms, fitted with a solid fuel/log burning stove which can be accessed/filled from each room. This superb, light and airy family living space is laid throughout with a polished wood floor and an open staircase leads up to the first floor from the dining room. The very generously proportioned lounge also has a polished wood and a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, with a grate for a solid fuel fire, and the impressive kitchen, which has pvc double glazed French doors opening out to the rear garden, allows ample room for a family dining table and is equipped with attractive cream units, solid wood worktops, a large range style cooker, built-in microwave oven and an integral larder style fridge and dishwasher. There is a good sized utility room, with fitted units, space for both a washer and condenser dryer and an integral freezer, and a ground floor w.c., both extremely beneficial assets in a busy family home.

On the first floor, there is access to the loft space from the landing and all five bedrooms are decent double size rooms, with four of them having fitted wardrobes/furniture. The cottage has a tastefully furbished, four-piece bathroom, with a corner bath and separate shower unit, and a stylish, majority tiled, three-piece shower room.

The small garage has an electric, remote controlled roller door and is built under the stone flagged and tarmac covered forecourt and there are raised, chopped slate covered garden areas on either side of the garage. There is pedestrian access from the front to the lovely, enclosed rear garden, which is yet another particularly enticing aspect of this prime property and consists of stone flagged patios, lawns, shrub borders and raised vegetable/fruit beds.
