Description

Tucked away in the idyllic semi-rural hamlet of New Smithy, Chinley, this beautifully presented four-bedroom semi-detached cottage combines period charm with modern comfort. Once the old schoolmaster’s house and part of the original schoolhouse, this 1900s stone property has been thoughtfully renovated into a stylish and welcoming freehold home.

Inside, the cottage offers a warm, inviting atmosphere with two reception rooms, a cosy study nook, and a spacious kitchen/diner — ideal for family life and entertaining. There’s also a garden room, a separate laundry room, and four bedrooms, two of which are generous doubles. The two bathrooms are tastefully finished, one featuring a bath and the other a shower, providing both comfort and practicality. Original features have been lovingly preserved throughout, blending seamlessly with the modern updates.

Outside, a private garden perfectly complements the home’s charm, framed by traditional drystone walling and offering breathtaking views across open countryside. The stone-paved driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles, while a delightful stone-built garden shed adds extra storage. The terraced patios make the most of the panoramic outlook — perfect for relaxing or dining outdoors.

This exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history, surrounded by peaceful countryside yet within easy reach of everyday amenities and excellent transport links.
