Old Tame Cottage is a period stone built property nestled within the rolling Saddleworth hills and oozing characterful charm throughout the home, presenting a treat for the discerning purchaser. The home has never been presented for sale to the open market having been lovingly owned by the current family for a number of decades.
Living accommodation is to three floors. A double garage to the front offers secure off street parking, doors to the rear of the garage connect into an open porch with wc/boiler room just off. A timber stable door leads into the kitchen with dual aspect windows. The ground floor accommodation also features a dining room, lounge and sun room. The two reception spaces both feature functioning open fires.
On the first floor are two double bedrooms, the primary bedroom affording an open vista to the surrounding Pennine scenery and three piece bathroom is of a spacious size. There is a further double bedroom located to the second floor.
Gardens are predominantly found to the side and rear with a truly country style feel. A well stocked garden teeming with a variety of colours and textures which are perfect for the keen gardener. Behind the rear garden is a block paved gated driveway for two cars.
Typical of a period home, inside you will find exposed stone walls, roof beams, Mullion windows and stone sills. Whilst a degree of updating is recommended, it allows the prospective purchaser a blank canvas to create their dream rural cottage in the stunning Saddleworth countryside.
The Saddleworth village of Denshaw proves popular for families with its own primary school and a choice of pubs with great options for food and drink. Saddleworth secondary school is reached within a ten minute drive and neighbouring Delph village has an abundance of day-to-day amenities. Countryside walking routes are plentiful within Denshaw with a choice of reservoirs and moorlands.
