A spacious living room with beams to the ceiling has a feature chimney breast and fireplace with open stonework, and housing a stove. A wooden staircase with carved detail to the banister leads up to the first floor.
Two double bedrooms and a single room are on the first floor, with a bathroom that has a newly-fitted suite, including a corner bath with shower over.
The gardens include a patio and lawn, and there's a detached double garage with a stable to the rear of the house. A small coal shed is now being used for storage. To the rear is a large kitchen garden with lawns and vegetable plots.
Within easy walking distance of the cottage is a well regarded primary school, and the renowned 'May's shop’ in Slack Bottom, by the Pennine Way.
This store, run by octogenarian May Stocks, is open all day, every day, and is an Aladdin's cave with shelves stocked with everything you might need or want, plus a bit extra.
