Irreverent Charm and Distinctive Detail
Whimsical and stylish, this sharply designed house has the kind of irreverent charm and distinctive detail that we like.
Located in the West Didsbury neighborhood of Manchester, the cottage is a rebuild of old outbuildings from when they were part of a farm yard and has been reproduced and transformed into a chic mews cottage that has great independent style and personality. Tucked away in a quiet section of the neighborhood, the house is a peaceful retreat, but within reach of all the action.
Redesigned by the architect owner, the long linear structure is comprised of brick construction and rustic charm and is bright and spacious, with open vaulted ceilings in the main space, exposed yorkstone floors and antique French tile. Beautifully appointed, the interiors have been polished with subtle modern fixtures and finishes and comfy refinement.
The open-plan living and dining room share the ground floor with the large gourmet kitchen, and the two bright and relaxing bedrooms (master upstairs and double downstairs) that can sleep up to four guests. Furnished and decorated with eclectic decor and antiques, a collection of original works of modern art, and clever detail, you can feel the affection and personal connection the owner has to it.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Wifi throughout, "Youview" TV with DVD player and iPod audio system. Housekeeping and laundry facilities. Basic provisions provided with optional pre-oders of food and wine. Travel cot, high chair and safety stair gate can be supplied on request. Free on site parking for two cars.
