Doctor Lane, Scouthead, Saddleworth

Presented to the market in true walk-in condition, this charming Grade II listed two-bedroom cottage, dating back to the 1700s, is nestled within the sought-after semi-rural setting of Scouthead.  Beautifully combining original period features with stylish contemporary country interiors, this delightful home offers character, warmth, and timeless appeal throughout.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a characterful entrance hall showcasing exposed stone walls, original beams, and attractive tiled flooring, setting the tone for the accommodation beyond.  The spacious lounge/dining room is rich in period charm, featuring exposed stonework, traditional mullion windows with delightful views, under-stairs storage, and a striking stone fireplace with a wooden mantel and multifuel stove, creating a cosy and inviting focal point.

The well-appointed shaker-style kitchen blends practicality with classic design, offering solid wood worktops, an integrated electric oven and gas hob, a Belfast sink, and space for a washing machine, dishwasher, and fridge freezer.  Mullion windows and tiled flooring enhance the cottage aesthetic, while a rear door provides direct access to the patio garden.

To the first floor are two beautifully presented bedrooms, both benefiting from traditional mullion windows.  The principal bedroom enjoys fitted wardrobes and breathtaking, far-reaching views stretching towards the Manchester skyline.  The second bedroom continues the property's characterful theme with a charming cast-iron fireplace and tiled hearth.

The bathroom is finished with tiled flooring and features an obscured-mullion window, along with a separate shower enclosure with a luxurious rainfall shower head.

Externally, the property enjoys a stone-enclosed forecourt to the front and a private paved patio garden to the rear, ideal for relaxing or entertaining.  Ample on-street parking is available directly in front of the property.

This exceptional cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved period home in a picturesque semi-rural location.  To arrange your viewing and take the first step towards making this wonderful property your new home, contact West Riding on .
