The Property
Approached through a leafy private setting within the grounds of Slaley Hall, this property is the original gardener’s cottage from when the estate was a private residence. Carefully renovated in 2017, it combines the integrity of its historic origins with a modern specification, offering stylish interiors, sustainable energy systems and a peaceful garden outlook.

A glazed porch forms a bright and practical entrance before leading into the main hall. Here, a striking glass and oak staircase rises as a central feature, with light filtering through the space and setting the tone for the interiors beyond. From the hall, double doors open into the dining area, a generous setting for family living and entertaining. The adjoining kitchen is appointed with granite worktops, double Belfast sinks and extensive cabinetry, while ceramic wood-effect flooring and oak skirtings lend a sense of continuity throughout.

The lounge, open to the kitchen and dining area yet with its own distinct atmosphere, is a particularly relaxing space. A vaulted ceiling enhances the sense of volume, while a mosaic fireplace with inset wood burner forms a striking focal point and also supplies hot water and heating. Bi-fold doors draw in natural light and connect the room seamlessly with the garden, reinforcing the spacious, airy feel.

On the opposite side of the hallway are two well-proportioned bedrooms, either of which could serve equally well as additional reception space, such as a study or snug. They are served by a ground-floor shower room, fitted with a rainfall shower and also functioning as a convenient guest cloakroom.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a generous space, distinguished by exposed beams and fitted with a range of bespoke furniture. It is complemented by an en-suite bathroom featuring a freestanding bath, integrated cabinetry and a serene, contemporary finish. A further bedroom on this floor provides additional flexibility, whether for family, guests or use as a study.

Externally
The gardens form a particularly private setting, with a walled section creating a sheltered sun trap and a generous patio designed for outdoor dining and entertaining. Mature planting and thoughtful landscaping give year-round interest, while the outlook to the front opens onto a green. Practical additions include a large potting shed and wood store, a smaller workshop at the rear of the garage, and a further wood store. A detached double garage with electric door provides secure parking and storage, alongside an electric car charging point.

Sustainable systems have been seamlessly integrated, with nine solar panels, an air source heat pump, thermal tubes for hot water, battery storage, underfloor heating to the ground floor and an electric car charging point in the garage, ensuring the property is as efficient as it is characterful.
