## Description

Oswald Cottage is a charming, detached residence offering spacious and versatile accommodation, abundant character, and exceptional potential for family living. This characterful home has been immaculately maintained by the current owner and has great potential to remodel or extend (subject to the necessary consents).

The impressive drawing room is a standout feature of the property, extending to over 27 feet in length and enjoying dual-aspect views, creating an elegant and inviting principal living space with charming parquet flooring and central fireplace.

There is a good-sized breakfast kitchen (with large pantry off) which opens through to three well-proportioned reception rooms with exposed beams and central fireplaces. In addition, on the ground floor is a conservatory & downstairs WC.

The first floor provides four well-proportioned bedrooms arranged around a central landing and hallway.

The principal bedroom enjoys generous dimensions and attractive garden views, while the remaining bedrooms offer excellent flexibility for family living, guest accommodation, or home working.

Two family bathrooms serve the first floor, including a particularly spacious main bathroom and a large loft space offering ample storage.

One of Oswald Cottage’s most appealing features is its generous mature and private gardens which extend to over half an acre. The grounds provide a wonderful backdrop to the house, with established planting, lawns, and a peaceful atmosphere rarely found so close to Alderley Edge Village.

The outdoor space offers superb scope for entertaining, family enjoyment, and further landscaping if desired.

A substantial detached double garage is complemented by a large adjoining workshop, presenting excellent opportunities for hobby space, storage, vehicle enthusiasts, or potential future conversion subject to the necessary consents.

Offered to the market for sale with no onward chain.
