Up Estates are proud to present this beautifully maintained double fronted Victorian cottage, tucked away in one of Wolston’s most sought-after village settings, offering an exceptional blend of period character, generous living space and picturesque countryside charm.

Dating back to the 1840s and enjoying open views towards St Margaret’s Church and fields, this much-loved family home presents a truly rare opportunity for buyers seeking timeless elegance in a peaceful village location, yet being close to amenities & a variety of transport links.

Rich in local history, the property was once owned by Mr Lole, headmaster of Wolston St Margaret’s School and long-serving organist at St Margaret’s Church, which now forms part of the stunning outlook enjoyed from the front of the home. Having had only six owners since its construction, the cottage has clearly been cherished and sympathetically cared for across generations.

Approached via a multi-car driveway, the property immediately impresses with its attractive double-fronted façade and well-established front gardens, setting the tone for the warmth and character found throughout. Internally, the home has been thoughtfully improved over the years while carefully preserving many original Victorian features, including high ceilings, feature fireplaces, original internal doors, exposed brickwork, and the original front door complete with a traditional bell pull.

The spacious and versatile accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming entrance hall, a light-filled family living room, a versatile dining room, and a charming kitchen/diner, which retains its original locally crafted range by Matterson, Huxley & Watson, adding further authenticity and heritage appeal. The kitchen also benefits from upgraded units, a Belfast sink, a cooker with gas hob, extractor fan, and space for additional appliances. A separate utility room with plumbing and a convenient WC completes the ground floor.

A stable door opens onto the rear garden, where the outside space continues to impress with mature gardens, a useful workshop, outbuilding store, external WC, multiple seating areas, a gated allotment, and a delightful shepherd’s hut offering versatile use as a peaceful retreat or simply a space for children’s adventures.

Stairs rise from the dining room to the landing, providing access to three generously sized double bedrooms and a well-appointed family bath and shower room, making the home ideal for families or those seeking flexible living arrangements. Bedroom two, originally two separate bedrooms, also benefits from its own en-suite shower room.

Perfectly positioned within walking distance of village amenities while enjoying a wonderfully tranquil setting, this unique home combines character, history, and countryside living in equal measure. Offered to the market with no forward chain, early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this remarkable Victorian cottage has to offer.
