Where traditional charm meets contemporary refinement, discover this beautifully extended and fully renovated stone-built cottage, tucked away in the heart of Walmersley. With picture-perfect kerb appeal, a tranquil tiered garden and a sophisticated interior brimming with high-end finishes, this home offers the perfect sanctuary just moments from Bury town centre and open countryside alike.
Set back and elevated from the road, this handsome stone cottage makes a striking first impression. A manicured, low-maintenance front garden, adorned with seasonal planting, leads you up the steps to a part-glazed composite front door. Step inside and prepare to be impressed by the light, warmth and open plan layout that unfolds within.
The entrance opens into a spacious, light-filled lounge—an inviting room that sets the tone for the rest of the home. Beautiful wooden flooring flows underfoot, enhancing the space with a sense of warmth and continuity. High ceilings and an open-plan design contribute to the airy atmosphere, while fresh neutral tones provide a calming backdrop.
A contemporary living flame gas fire adds a welcoming focal point to the lounge, ideal for cosy evenings with a book or a family film night. The open-plan layout makes entertaining effortless; whether you're hosting a celebration or enjoying a quiet weekend, the space naturally brings people together.
Flowing seamlessly from the lounge is the sleek and sociable kitchen, fitted with a modern breakfast bar topped with a rich, dark grey worktop. Stylish yet functional, the kitchen features ample cabinetry and drawer storage, a Belfast sink positioned beneath a large picture window with garden views, and a five-ring gas hob set beneath a concealed ceiling extractor—keeping sightlines clean and the space feeling open.
There’s room for a freestanding fridge-freezer, alongside an oven, grill, washing machine and slimline dishwasher. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to cater to modern family life while honouring the home’s period charm.
At the rear, a stable-style composite door leads out to the garden—a fitting nod to the home’s heritage and a charming connection between indoors and out.
Climb the soft, carpeted staircase to the first floor where a trio of bedrooms and a beautifully appointed bathroom await.
To the front of the home, the spacious principal bedroom is a peaceful haven with a full wall of pale grey fitted wardrobes and matching drawers, offering generous storage without compromising space. Settle in with a film thanks to TV connections and enjoy the calm, neutral tones that make this room the ultimate retreat.
To the rear, the second bedroom is currently used as a nursery but would also make a lovely double bedroom or home office, with leafy views out over the garden.
Serving both bedrooms is a stylish, recently fitted bathroom. fitted in fresh, contemporary marble effect panels, it features a full-sized bath with an overhead shower, a modern wash basin with vanity unit for storage, and a sleek WC. Whether you're preparing for the day ahead or indulging in a relaxing evening soak, this room delivers function with flair.
From the kitchen, step out into a rear garden designed for both enjoyment and tranquillity. The first tier offers a stone patio—ideal for morning coffees or evening drinks—while pots of colourful flowers add vibrancy and charm.
A few steps up, the second tier is bathed in sunlight and part laid with timber decking. Perfect for barbecues, social gatherings, or peaceful reading afternoons, this suntrap is truly a haven. There’s scope to introduce a summer house, garden office, or greenhouse—this secret garden is as practical as it is pretty.
A detached garage provides extra storage and is ideal as a workshop, bike store or hobby room, while beyond, there’s ample room for children to play or for you to create your own green oasis.
