    About this property

    • Pink Cottage is a characterful semi-detached period home situated in the sought-after village of Stapleford Tawney. Occupying an attractive rural setting, the property enjoys views across neighbouring farmland and open countryside, whilst offering approximately 1,841 sq ft of accommodation, excluding the garage.

      The cottage provides well-balanced family accommodation arranged over two floors and displays a wealth of character features throughout. Exposed timbers, brick fireplaces, traditional joinery and cottage-style windows combine to create a home of considerable warmth and individuality.

      The principal living accommodation is centred around a spacious sitting room with an inglenook-style fireplace and garden views, complemented by a separate dining room which provides an attractive space for formal entertaining and family gatherings. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of traditional cabinetry and offers ample space for dining, while the adjoining conservatory and garden room establish direct access to the gardens and provide additional reception.

      On the first floor there are four bedrooms arranged around a central landing. The principal bedroom is particularly generous in scale and enjoys a dual aspect overlooking the surrounding gardens and countryside beyond. Three further bedrooms and a family bathroom provide flexible accommodation suitable for family living, guest accommodation or home working requirements. Externally, the property is approached via a gravelled driveway providing off-street parking and access to the attached garage.

      The rear garden is laid predominantly to lawn and incorporates a variety of mature trees, established borders and productive planting areas, creating an attractive and well-established setting. Beyond the garden, the property enjoys views across surrounding farmland and open countryside, which enhance the rural character of the location.

      The grounds extend to about 0.32 acres, offering a manageable yet attractive outside space with scope for continued gardening and outdoor enjoyment.

    One of my favourite aspects of this magical cottage is its setting opposite an SSSI, where the views and abundance of wildlife create a real sense of peace and connection to the countryside.
