A stone built, Grade II listed, ‘through by light’ weaver’s cottage believed to date back to the early to mid-1800s which is in need of a full programme of modernisation. It is tucked away down this historic cobbled street and offers someone the potential to create a lovely home. Although it does require a lot of work, it is full of original character features waiting to be brought back to life. It has a stone flagged area to the front providing somewhere to sit out. The cottage is within a short walk of a range of shops, bars, and cafes in the nearby village of Golcar and just a short drive to nearby Slaithwaite where you will find more shops and facilities along with a train station where you can pick up the trans Pennine service. There is also easy access up to the M62 at junctions 23 & 24.
