Basford Bridge Terrace, Cheddleton, Staffordshire

Tucked away in the picturesque, semi rural village of Cheddleton, this charming cottage enjoys a setting that's genuinely hard to match — the tranquil Cauldon Canal running along the frontage and the scenic Churnet Valley Railway just across the road. A thoughtful renovation has transformed the property into a truly idyllic retreat, ready to be enjoyed from day one.

The Cottage

The ground floor opens into a bright, open plan living and dining space, centred around a multi-fuel log burner that brings real character on cooler evenings. The kitchen has been fitted with sleek units at both base and eye level, an inset sink, integrated fridge freezer, 'Rangemaster' cooker and plumbing for a dishwasher — practical, contemporary, and finished to a high standard throughout. A garden room with a feature sky light window and a handy utility room with plumbing for a washing machine and WC add further everyday flexibility.

Upstairs, the generous bedroom takes full advantage of its position, with lovely views over the canal and a fitted walk in wardrobe for storage. The first floor bathroom impresses too, fitted with a free-standing bath and shower over, a low level WC, and a pedestal wash hand basin. A fixed staircase leads on up to a converted loft room, complete with panelled ceiling and a double glazed 'Velux' style window — a versatile spot for work, hobbies, or simply extra space to spread out.

The Outside

To the front, there's parking along with space for a pleasant seating area — ideal for taking in the canal side setting. A garage at the end of the private road offers further parking, along with power and plenty of storage. The garage does also benefit from its own consumer unit. 

The Setting

Cheddleton is a pretty village in the Staffordshire Moorlands, known for its peaceful surroundings, rolling hills and lush greenery. Local life here is well catered for, with a primary school, cricket club, cafe, historic church, three welcoming pubs (with The Boat being within easy strolling distance over the road) and the popular Flintlock restaurant all within the village itself.

For a wider choice, Leek's town centre is just over 3 miles away, offering independent shops, traditional markets, a good range of eateries, a newly revamped leisure centre and a bus station with connections to Cheadle, Buxton, Ashbourne, Macclesfield and Stoke-on-Trent.

In Short: Whether you're after a countryside bolt hole, a first home, or a ready made Airbnb, this is a rare chance to secure a property with a truly unique setting.
