Full Details for 2 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Newcastle-under-Lyme, ST5 :

A rare opportunity to buy a pretty cottage sitting within the heart of the village of Maer. It has been carefully renovated by skilled craftsmen in order to bring it up to the modern standards.

The cottage was once part of the Maer Estate which was for generations owned by the Wedgwood family and has links through marriage to Charles Darwin. This rich history has been one of the factors which has preserved the village from over development and helped it to remain one of the areas most quintessentially English and sought after locations.

Maer is surrounded by unspoiled countryside and indeed the cottage itself has views over open farmland to both the front and rear. For those needing to travel the transport links are excellent being within just 7 miles of Newcastle Under Lyme and 5 miles of the M6 Junction 15. Those living within the village are also fortunate to be close to several of the areas most highly regarded gastro-pubs which when coupled with the convenience of the location add greatly to the desirability of the village.

Set back from the lane there is parking on the driveway for several vehicles and lawned gardens to both the front rear and side which provide a good degree of privacy from the neighbouring properties. The front door opens into a comfortable Sitting Room which overlooks the front of the property and has a log burning stove which will make this a particularly cosy room on a cold winters evening.

Stairs rise to the first floor and a door opens to the Kitchen which has been refitted with modern units and appliances and has space for a breakfasting table. Beyond the Kitchen is a second Sitting Room which has French doors opening out to the garden and give views of the fields beyond. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and the refitted bathroom which in common with the rest of the property has been completed to a high standard.

There are generous gardens to both the front and rear of the property, mainly laid to lawn with wonderful open views.

The property is presented in immaculate condition and is a testament to the skills and work that the vendor has undertaken. The property benefits from planning permission to demolish to the rear elevation and replace with an extension and garage. Full details of the permission can be found using the reference number : (Newcastle Borough Council) 13/00647/FUL
