Description

This absolutely gorgeous ‘through by light’ cottage occupies a semi-rural position at Blackmoorfoot with access to many countryside walks and the picturesque Blackmoorfoot reservoir from your doorstep. It has just benefitted from a programme of updating and now offers a beautiful home which is ready for you to walk into and enjoy. The cottage is believed to date back to 1815 and is full of character and charm with exposed stone feature walls, beams, and mullioned windows, yet has the comfort of having more modern installations such as gas fired central heating with attractive traditional style radiators, multi fuel stove in the living room, double glazing, and a superbly fitted out bathroom. It is a short stroll to the well-regarded gastro pub ‘The Bull’s Head’ and has access to all the village amenities in nearby Meltham, Slaithwaite and Linthwaite.
