Victoria Street, Ramsbottom Guide Price: Sold STC £170,000

Nestled conveniently close to Ramsbottom, its boutique shops, vibrant bars and selection of schools, discover the stone cottage delights of No. 65, Victoria Street.

Step inside, into a bright lounge, where light flows in through the large front facing window, reflecting off the crisp white walls. Balancing the cool of the white walls with warmth is the cosy ruby toned carpet. Recessed alcoves provide the perfect place for placing your media units for cosy movie nights in, cuddled up on the sofa.

Maximising the space, a stylish door slides back to deliver you through into the family dining-kitchen, where light pours in through the window and partially glazed back door.

Slate toned flooring lies underfoot complementing the obsidian tones in the flecked worktops and ceramic splashback tiles to the lower section of the walls. Integrated appliances include an oven and induction hob. There is also plumbing for a washer-dryer and dishwasher and space for a freestanding fridge-freezer.

Discover the boiler within the cupboard unit by the integrated wine rack. Plenty of storage space for all your culinary essentials. Stash the hoover and mop and other cleaning essentials in the understairs cupboard, where there is also hanging space for coats.

As the tile effect flooring turns to pale grey carpet, take the stairs up to an open landing, turning left into the spacious master bedroom. Crisp white walls reflect the light which flows in through the front window, fitted with blinds and curtains and looking out to the gardens of Victoria Street. In the distance, views of Holcolmbe Hill and its church spire entreat the eye.

Supremely spacious, there is room for all your furniture in here, with space and manoeuvrability once again maximised through the addition of a sliding door.

Immediately opposite the master bedroom the bathroom is conveniently close for morning showers and evening soaks. Fully tiled in white, a mains-powered shower stands over the bath tub, with a heated radiator on hand to warm your towel. In addition to this, there is a wash basin and WC.

Step back onto the landing to arrive at the second double bedroom, dressed in dark grey carpet underfoot. High ceilings create a light and airy feeling, whilst storage is available within the built-in wardrobes. Throw open the curtains and wake up to spectacular views out over the distant hills. What better way to start the day?

Returning downstairs, step outside onto the east facing, minimal maintenance decking area, set to either side of a set of steps leading down to the cobbled street beyond. Stash your tools and plant pots in the 6ft garden shed, a perfect match for the natural tones in the wooden decking. The perfect place to sit back with a refreshingly cool drink on a sunny summer’s evening. Cheers.
