Description

The Property
Nestled in peaceful Egerton, this beautifully presented 2-bedroom stone cottage blends rustic charm with modern convenience. Brimming with character, the home features exposed stonework, hardwood flooring throughout the living room and dining room and a thoughtfully designed extension that enhances both function and flow.

Step inside to find a warm and inviting living space with original features, cozy proportions, and timeless appeal. The solid hardwood floors add warmth and elegance, while natural light fills the rooms to create a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere.

To the rear, a contemporary extension houses a sleek, well-appointed kitchen with ample counter space and modern appliances—ideal for home cooking. Adjoining the kitchen is a dedicated utility room, offering practical storage and laundry space while keeping the main living areas clutter-free.

Both bedrooms are generously sized, with peaceful views and plenty of charm, making them ideal for restful nights or use as a guest room or home office. The bathroom is conveniently located and well-finished, maintaining the home’s harmonious blend of old and new.

Outside, a private yard area offers space for relaxing, gardening, or enjoying outdoor dining. Whether you’re soaking up the sun, hosting friends, or simply enjoying a quiet moment, the outdoor space is a lovely extension of the home.

It has been verified by the seller(s), unless marked as 'draft'.
