Overview
About Moisy Cottage
Moisy Cottage is a unique property in many ways both in its individual style and name which derives from the original road name of Smithy Place. It is believed to have originally been a barn and stables more than likely allied to the nearby Wheatfield House.
It is of traditional stone built construction under a stone slate roof and provides a layout which would work extremely well for a buyer who needs accommodation predominantly on one level. Whilst the property has been generally well maintained over the last 36 years of its ownership we do anticipate that the next owner will look to carry out a comprehensive scheme of modernisation and possibly redesigning the internal layout.
The main entrance door leads into a hallway which in turn opens into the dining hall which sits at the hub of the property providing access to the majority of the remaining accommodation and features glazed arched window to the rear courtyard. Off the dining hall you will find a dining kitchen with gas fired Aga, large lounge and a further sitting room.
Two double bedrooms are to be found on the ground floor, these are served by the house bathroom. The other 2 bedrooms and a further bathroom are located on the first floor and are accessed via a staircase from the sitting room. The integral garage is also accessible from the sitting room via an interconnecting door.
There is a gas central heating system, double glazed windows and intruder alarm system. Whilst the fixtures and fittings are of a good standard it is our expectation that updating will be required in due course.
Externally, the property benefits from a generous plot with a large parking area in front of the building and mature gardens predominantly to the side, but also the rear where there is a lovely courtyard area accessible from double doors in the sitting room.
Property Details
Please Note
Interested parties should note that the land to either side of Smithy Place Lane is currently in the process of a large-scale development of residential properties. It is inevitable that the new houses will alter the aspect currently enjoyed the property but we do anticipate that it will retain a good deal of privacy from its mature planting around the boundary edges. Viewers should also note that at the time that the property was launched to the market access via the top of Smithy Place was closed and the property should be approached from the lower (Brockholes) side.
