Our Agent Jodie says:

“Tucked away down a lovely little lane, Mosley Mews opens up to just a handful of charming cottages, and this is where you’ll find this truly special home. From the beautiful wooden doors to the little details that you discover as you move around, there’s something incredibly charming about it. It’s the kind of property where you can’t help but slow down and take it all in.

Located in the much-loved village of Rolleston-on-Dove, Brooklyn Cottage has that wonderful balance of rural charm while still being really well connected, with excellent amenities close by. There’s also the added bonus of parking for two cars, which is always a welcome find.

The current layout is that you enter through the rear garden, passing a really handy little greenhouse before stepping into the heart of the home, the beautiful kitchen. This is such a lovely room, full of character and with everything you could possibly need. It feels cosy, practical and homely all at once, and it’s easy to imagine spending plenty of time here.

From the kitchen, you move through to the dining room, although this space is currently being used as a sitting room and office, showing just how versatile the property really is. Whether you need somewhere to work from home, a second reception room, or simply a relaxed space away from the main living room, it gives you plenty of options. You also have the additional basement floor providing extra room and versatility. In the living room, there’s a beautiful feature fireplace, lovely wooden sash windows and that unmistakable feeling of stepping into a home that has retained so much of its original charm.

Heading upstairs, there are three really good-sized bedrooms, all enjoying lovely views. The main bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes, giving you plenty of useful storage, while the family bathroom and separate WC complete the first floor.

And then there’s the garden. To the front of the property, you have your own private little retreat, with a lovely patio seating area and established fruit trees. It’s a beautiful space to sit out, enjoy a coffee, entertain friends or simply make the most of those warmer days.

Another great feature is the basement, which is tanked and waterproofed, making it a very usable space. Furthermore, no expense has been spared with replacing the roof in 2014, meaning a very well insulated home that stays cool in the summer and warm in the winter!”

Our Sellers Thoughts:

“I can honestly say that the last fifteen years in this delightful cottage have been the happiest years of my life. It’s peaceful, charming, cosy and comfortable, and the garden is a joy. It’s on a quiet private cul-de-sac; you can hear the birds sing, you’re near the church, some exquisite houses, and all amenities with excellent neighbours!"
