This charming two-bedroom terraced cottage is located in the picturesque village of Birch Vale, Derbyshire, near the River Sett. The property offers an appealing blend of character features and modern conveniences. The exterior, typical of the region, displays traditional stonework. Interior photos reveal a bright, well-maintained interior, with a pleasant mix of modern updates and original features. The kitchen and bathroom are clearly updated with modern finishes. The property boasts a well-landscaped, tiered garden, complete with a pond, raised beds, and multiple seating areas, creating a private and attractive outdoor space.

The cottage’s proximity to Thornsett Primary School, rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted, and the relative ease of access to New Mills, which offers more comprehensive amenities, including train stations connecting to Manchester and other areas, enhances its appeal. However, Birch Vale itself seems to be relatively limited in local shops and other day-to-day amenities.

While specific square footage data for similar properties is absent, the list price seems competitive compared to nearby listings, reflecting the combination of desirable features (location, garden) and present condition. The property would suit a buyer seeking a charming period home with a substantial garden, in a peaceful yet accessible location. Buyers should be aware that while the interior presentation is of a high standard, there are some period elements that will require ongoing maintenance.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
