Description - 1 Swanley Bridge Cottage, dates back to 1830, is constructed of brick under a tiled roof and approached over a wide imprinted concrete drive leading to a car parking and turning area. The present owners have transformed the cottage over the last twelve years, with a full refurbishment and tasteful enlargement. It has a warm and inviting feel to it.

The cottage has idyllic waterside and rural views that can be enjoyed from most rooms. Rather uniquely, the property has an adjacent mooring right with a 16 amp power supply and indeed, the present owners keep a 17 metre narrow boat.

The gardens extend right up to the non tow path side of the LLangollen canal. It enjoys mooring rights, subject to confirmation from the Canal and River Trust at a cost about £800 per annum.

In our opinion this delightful, one off cottage, offered with no on going chain will suit those looking for a peaceful retreat, an active boating base, or a unique lifestyle home.
