Pleasant View, Foulridge

We are delighted to offer this quaint cottage – an end one in a row of three – set in an elevated position in a desirable village location and having the benefit of long-distance views from the front. Bursting with character and full of charm, this alluring abode also has the considerable advantage of an enclosed, off-road parking area – allowing space for two cars or a caravan or motorhome – a large, beautifully landscaped garden and a substantial garden room, which could serve a number of purposes. Situated close to access to public transport and the parade of shops in the village, the cottage is also just a short walk from The Hare & Hounds Pub and not far from the Leeds/Liverpool Canal, Fabello’s Italian Restaurant and the beautiful countryside surrounding the village. Attractively and tastefully furbished, this particularly appealing dwelling boasts many other enticing attributes and internal viewing essential to fully appreciate all has to offer.

Complemented by pvc double glazing and gas central heating, the accommodation briefly comprises an entrance vestibule and a cosy and inviting living room, featuring a fireplace, fitted with a multi-fuel stove, and exposed stone walls on either side of the chimney breast. The living room and kitchen have been opened up to create more usable space and the kitchen is fitted with cream shaker style units and a built-in electric oven and five-ring gas hob. To allow extra storage space, the current owner has erected an external timber shed at the rear, which also provides a utility room, as it has plumbing for a washing machine and electric power and light.

On the first floor is a decent sized double bedroom, which overlooks the garden at the front, enjoys the amazing, far-reaching views and has two built-in double wardrobes. There is also a modern, three-piece bathroom, which is mostly lined with pvc ‘wet wall’ style panelling, is fitted with a white suite and has a shower over the bath.

The lovingly tended terraced garden at the front is, without question, one of the main highlights of this enchanting cottage and consists of a stone flagged patio directly in front of the property, providing a perfect spot to relax and get full benefit of the great views, and then there are various flower beds, stocked with a huge variety of flowering plants and shrubs, with pathways in between, a split-level decked patio, a timber shed, external power points and a cold water tap.
