Located within a highly sought after area in Marwood, 2 Bittadon Cottages is a truly exceptional, semi-detached period home, offering the very best of rural charm and elegant country living, or potentially a very successful holiday let, which has proved to be the case over the last few years.

This beautifully maintained four-bedroom, three reception room stone-fronted cottage sits within just over half an acre of mature, manicured grounds and boasts uninterrupted countryside views from every aspect. Approached via a gated driveway that opens onto generous driveway parking, the property immediately impresses with its traditional façade and tranquil setting. A neatly kept front lawn and patio area is bordered by mature shrubs, while a variety of small outbuildings including a shed and log store enhance the practicality of the home.

The entrance hallway provides a warm welcome and gives access to a cloakroom and a useful utility room housing the oil-fired boiler. From here, the home flows seamlessly into a series of beautifully presented living spaces, beginning with the main living room – a light-filled and generously proportioned space with a picture window framing the view over the rear garden and rolling fields beyond. An electric fireplace adds a modern touch to this otherwise classic room. Adjacent to this lies a second sitting room, also facing the rear and featuring a charming wood-burning stove inset into the wall, complemented by characterful slate flooring which continues through to the formal dining room. This room offers a perfect space for entertaining, complete with a pantry cupboard, additional storage, and the comforting presence of a wood burning AGA.

The kitchen, while compact, is functional and tastefully designed with integrated appliances including an oven, fridge, and dishwasher. Dual-aspect windows bring in natural light, and features such as original bread oven and direct access to the front garden add historic charm and convenience.

To the right of the living room, the property has been extended to create a truly impressive ground floor master suite, which could just as easily serve as an additional reception room. This space enjoys dual-aspect views over the gardens, French doors opening onto the side garden, and a stylish electric fireplace set against an exposed stone wall. There are two built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite comprising a double rainfall shower, bidet, basin, and WC, all finished to a high modern standard.

Stairs rise from the sitting room to a light and airy first-floor landing, where three further double bedrooms await. Each room enjoys stunning views over the gardens and surrounding countryside, while the family bathroom features a tasteful, neutral-toned three-piece suite. One of the upstairs bedrooms, effectively a second master, offers generous proportions, dual-aspect windows, two built-in wardrobes, and a further en-suite shower room.

The gardens are undoubtedly one of the standout features of this beautiful home. A level lawned side garden with a summerhouse and patio area offers the perfect spot for entertaining or peaceful relaxation, enjoying full sun and total privacy throughout the day. The rear garden, gently sloping and planted with an attractive array of flowers and shrubs, leads to a more natural wildflower area accessed via a small gate. This delightful space extends into light woodland, culminating in a large, tranquil pond with surrounding decking – a magical corner of the property ideal for quiet contemplation or outdoor gatherings.

This rare and wonderfully balanced country home offers a perfect blend of historic character, thoughtful modern updates, and truly outstanding outdoor space, all offered to the market with no onward chain.
