Cavendish Square, West Handley, Marsh Lane, Sheffield, S21

Delightfully situated amidst beautiful rural surroundings, this charming and beautifully presented period cottagenestles within a highly sought-after hamlet, once part of the Chatsworth Estate. The property enjoys the enviable advantage of a double garage and a large, picturesque garden, offering an idyllic country lifestyle while still being within easy reach of excellent local amenities and good schools. If you're seeking a slice of rural life at an affordable price, this property could be perfect for you. The surrounding area offers wonderful walks, stunning views, and a welcoming community, making it an ideal choice for families, couples, or individuals of any age who value a peaceful yet connected way of life. The lifestyle here is truly special – one that blends natural beauty, heritage, and the comfort of modern living.

Believed to date back to the early 1700s, the cottage has been lovingly refurbished by the current owners, successfully combining period features such as a stone fireplace and beamed ceilings with modern comforts. The property was rewired with a new fuse box around 2007, with new guttering and ridge tiles, and most importantly, extended to the rear on the ground floor when the stylish kitchen was fitted.

A front porch opens into the charming living room with a lovely quarry tiled floor and attractive stone fire surround incorporating a Stratford multi-fuel stove, complemented by a beamed ceiling and a window overlooking the front courtyard. The impressive open-plan living/dining kitchen/family room offers an extensive range of Shaker-style units with integrated appliances, resin flooring, and excellent natural light aided by the skylight and French doors to the rear.

To the first floor, there is a double bedroom with an original feature fireplace and stunning front views, along with a luxurious bathroom featuring a freestanding double-ended bath and walk-in shower. The second-floor bedroombenefits from a Velux-style roof light and en-suite shower room.

Outside, the mainly lawned front garden features an attractive Victorian street lamp, while to the rear there are two useful outbuildings – one serving as an excellent utility room with Belfast-style sink, WC, and plumbing for a washing machine, and the other previously used as a home office.

The property also includes a concrete sectional double garage with electric door and a large, private rear garden, beautifully landscaped with a lawn, summerhouse, decked entertaining terrace, three sheds, a vegetable area, and established fruit trees, bushes, and flowering plants.

This is a truly special home that offers not only comfort and character but also the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful lifestyle in a peaceful rural setting – a place where generations have happily made their home and where the beauty of the surrounding countryside is part of everyday life.
