Description

Tucked away within the attractive grounds of Madeley Manor, this thoughtfully restored former workshop dating back to the 1830s combines period character with stylish modern living.
Offering three genuine double bedrooms, a bright garden-facing living space, and a larger-than-expected rear garden, the cottage has been extensively refurbished throughout and is ready to move straight into.
Blending original charm with practical contemporary finishes, the property enjoys a unique semi-rural setting while remaining convenient for nearby towns, amenities, and transport links.

Inside the Cottage
The ground floor has been designed to maximise comfort and usability, with a bright and welcoming living area opening directly onto the garden through patio doors, creating a strong indoor-outdoor feel during the warmer months.
Double pocket doors provide flexibility between the kitchen and living areas, allowing the layout to feel both sociable and adaptable depending on how the space is used.
The modern kitchen has been finished in a clean contemporary style with integrated appliances and induction hob, while a separate utility room and dedicated washer/dryer cupboard add practical everyday convenience.
Character touches including exposed oak beams help retain the charm and personality of the original building, balanced with the benefits of a full modern refurbishment.
Upstairs, the cottage offers three well-proportioned double bedrooms - unusual for a property of this style - making the home equally suited to families, guests, or home working.
The principal bedroom enjoys pleasant views over the rear garden, while the remaining accommodation is served by a stylish modern family bathroom.
Garden & Outdoor Space
One of the standout features of the property is the generous rear garden, offering a level of outdoor space rarely associated with cottages of this type.
Immediately outside the property is a composite decking area ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the quieter surroundings.
Beyond this, the garden opens onto a substantial lawn bordered by fencing and established hedging, creating a space that feels private, usable, and family-friendly.
A public footpath crosses part of the garden beyond the main immediate seating area. Gated access and the established layout naturally encourage use away from the principal garden space.
Setting & Location
Situated within the historic Madeley Manor grounds, the cottage enjoys a distinctive semi-rural setting with a sense of character and space rarely found in more conventional modern developments.
The property remains conveniently positioned for access to local amenities, nearby villages, and surrounding commuter routes.
Parking is informal within the shared courtyard area.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a beautifully restored character cottage offering a unique blend of period charm, modern efficiency, and generous outdoor space.
A distinctive and welcoming home in an attractive historic setting — ready to be enjoyed from day one.
