Main Street, Milton

This pretty three-storey end cottage occupies a delightful position in the heart of the sought-after village of Milton, close to Repton. Full of character and charm, the property retains a wealth of traditional features including exposed beams, stripped cottage latch-and-brace doors, exposed stonework and a feature fireplace.

Offering well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors, there is a welcoming sitting room, breakfast kitchen, two bedrooms, family bathroom. Outside, a charming cottage-style garden enjoys lawn, mature planted borders, patio and useful timber sheds. The property is offered with no upward chain.

Accommodation
A traditional entrance door opens into the character sitting room, a warm and inviting space with exposed ceiling beams, cottage latch-and-brace doors and a useful understairs cupboard. The focal point is a log-burning stove, set upon a raised quarry-tiled hearth (not tested).

To the rear is the breakfast kitchen, featuring a tiled floor and a range of oak-effect fitted units with work surfaces over, incorporating an electric hob and oven. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine together with space for an under-counter fridge. A window overlooks the gardens, while a stable door provides access to the outside and, when open, creates a lovely through-view towards the garden. The oil-fired central heating boiler is located within the kitchen.

The first-floor landing has a useful storage cupboard and gives access to the first bedroom and family bathroom.

This room is a charming double room with exposed beams, exposed stonework and an attractive brick fireplace, centred around a decorative cast fireplace. The family bathroom is fitted in white and includes a bath with electric shower over, pedestal wash hand basin and WC. Exposed beams add further character, while a rear window overlooks the garden.

From the bathroom a turning staircase continues to the second-floor attic bedroom, which is undoubtedly one of the property’s most appealing features. The room has a wonderful high vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers, a side window and rear dormer window enjoying views over the garden and towards the surrounding countryside. Generously proportioned and full of character, this is a versatile and atmospheric space.

Outside
To the rear is a delightful cottage-style garden, predominantly laid to lawn and complemented by mature planted borders and established planting. Pathways lead through the garden to a paved patio and a number of useful timber sheds positioned towards the bottom of the garden.
