Description
Mytholme Cottage is a beautifully restored 300-year-old three-storey weaver's cottage that combines exceptional period character with high-quality modern living. Set beneath the iconic Saddleworth Viaduct and enjoying breathtaking Pennine views, this unique home offers a peaceful setting just a short walk from the vibrant villages of Uppermill and Dobcross.

Thoughtfully renovated throughout, the cottage retains original beams, mullion windows and Yorkshire stone flag flooring while benefiting from extensive insulation, hardwood double and triple glazing, and a modern Worcester Bosch heating system. The result is a character home that is warm, quiet and energy efficient.

Lounge

The welcoming lounge features a Scandinavian log-burning stove with insulated flue, creating a cosy focal point while efficiently distributing heat throughout the home.

Kitchen and Dining
At the heart of the property is a spacious family kitchen with a stunning glazed garden room, where floor-to-ceiling windows and double doors open onto the black limestone patio, creating an ideal space for everyday family life and entertaining.

Main bedroom

The principal bedroom is a light-filled retreat with vaulted ceilings, original mullion windows, far-reaching views, a walk-in wardrobe and a stylish en-suite bathroom.

Bedrooms 2 and 3
Two further generous bedrooms provide flexible accommodation, with the third enjoying an adjoining snug, perfect as a home office, reading room or dressing area.

Exterior
At the front entrance the property benefits from a walled garden and at rear the landscaped patio offers a wonderful place to relax or entertain while enjoying the dramatic backdrop of the viaduct and surrounding countryside. There is also an opportunity to acquire extra garden space at the rear for any buyer keen on gardening or requiring more outside space.

Garage
The integrated garage provides excellent storage and offers exciting conversion potential, subject to the necessary permissions.

Location
Despite its tranquil setting, the property is within walking distance of highly regarded schools, independent cafés, shops, leisure facilities and railway services offering direct journeys to Manchester and Leeds, while the M62 motorway is approximately 15 minutes away.
