The Accommodation
2 Rosebank is a charming and tastefully finished home constructed of mellow Cheshire brick under a slate roof with double glazing throughout. The facade is that of a typical country property which has been extended in a considered fashion circa 2011 with the original, moderate house believed to have been constructed circa 1892 with the attached neighbour. The vendors acquired No.2 in 2015 replacing the kitchen and creating the annex as well as various cosmetic updates during their residence. Despite these additions, the soft furnishing and design of the property is still very much in line with a period home yet the open plan arrangement makes a great entertaining and social hub throughout the ground floor. The accommodation is very comfortable being arranged predominantly over 2 floors with an additional 2nd floor room all of which benefits from gas central heating. There is no doubt that No.2 would certainly be of interest to the family buyer or indeed those downsizing from a larger country home who wish to retain the scale of rooms they are accustomed to.

No.2 is mainly accessed from the rear into the open plan kitchen and garden room. The garden room enjoys a lovely light ambiance as it is full glazed on all sides with skylights making it a superb summer room yet the addition of a gas stove creates a cosy and comfortable family room in the winter. The kitchen is adjoining with an impressive centre island having an opulent granite top, seating area for informal dining and an abundance of storage cupboards below. The kitchen is a profound feature of the house being fitted with a full range of shaker styler wall and base units having display shelving, cutlery and crockery drawers, double pantry unit and drawers beneath, spice cabinet, Rangemaster Elan 6 ring gas hob and integrated AEG dishwasher. Off the kitchen is the open plan dining room for more formal events with solid oak flooring which leads through to the sitting room making the mid-section of the property a free-flowing space between the principal rooms great for socialising and modern family living. The sitting room is a particularly impressive room having a feature brick fireplace being the focal point, housing a new Valiant wood burner atop a stone plinth. Beyond is the lounge which forms part of the central hub of the house albeit closed with double doors and linking to the front hallway and principal entrance.

The second-floor accommodation is accessed from the dining room via an oak staircase onto the landing. Off the landing is the family bathroom with full height ceiling, Heritage pedestal handbasin, low flush wc and large double shower. Beyond is bedroom 3 and at the end of the corridor bedroom 2 being served by an ensuite shower room. From the hallway, access is gained to the spacious master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and lovely garden aspect through a French window and Juliet balcony. The master bedroom is complemented by a shower room with pedestal handbasin and wc. The staircase continues to a converted attic room with dual sky lights and eaves storage. This room is currently used as a study but could be readily adapted subject to building regulation. In all the living accommodation expands to approximately 191sq.m (2,055sq.ft).

Outside
No.2 is approached off Mill Lane, which is an unadopted bridleway, through a recently installed timber gated entrance onto a pebbled driveway beneath the south west front. To the rear of the property are the south facing gardens which are beautifully presented having an abundance of mature trees and perennial shrubbery interspersed throughout raised brick beds which has been slowly cultivated by the vendor. The lawn is small and compact with a timber Summer House enclosed by a part fence and shrubbery boundary. To the side of the house is a raised patio running the permitter of the property with a large sitting area and Pergola having a southwest aspect enjoying sun for most of the day. Beyond is a side gate leading to two implement and bike stores/sheds along with a wood and bin store. The garage has been converted recently to create a useful and spacious annex with homeworking, dependent relatives, or guest accommodation in mind. The annex comprises a fully fitted utility room with base units and plumbing for washing machines beyond which is the well-appointed living area complemented by a brick fireplace and French doors to the rear garden. Off the main living area is a recently installed shower room and storeroom with additional loft storage which is accessed via a ceiling hatch in the main body of the building. The whole extends to approximately 0.31 acres (0.12ha)
