" Acorn Cottage, Moss Lane, Manley WA6 9JH

Welcome to Acorn Cottage
Built over 150 years ago and steeped in history, this exquisite cottage was originally part of Manley Hall and later owned by the Gladstone estate. More recently, it was the village Post Office and reading rooms before becoming the delightful residence it is today.

From the electric gates, the driveway meanders around the manicured front gardens as the charming cottage comes into view. The sweet scent of the hydrangeas growing around the porch greets you as you take in the tranquillity of this marvellous home.

The hydrangeas grow around the porch and are so beautiful when they bloom.

Lovely Living spaces

This bedroom has a full ensuite bathroom with a bath and separate shower, ideal for a quick morning refresh or a relaxing soak in peace without having to wait for the bathroom queue. The second bedroom has an ensuite WC, a wash hand basin for added convenience, and built in wardrobe storage. There are two additional bedrooms, each with delightful outlooks and built in wardrobe storage.

The family bathroom has a whirlpool bath and separate shower, so the whole family can enjoy a moment of relaxation.

Glorious Gardens
The outside space at Acorn Cottage is fabulous, from expertly manicured gardens to the wealth of birdlife that the neighbouring woodland provides. There is somewhere to enjoy the sun at almost any time of the day, from fresh early morning to lazy golden evenings. Watch the sunset in front of the Summer House with the clink of ice cubes from your gin and tonic as a long summer day draws to a close.

Enjoying the evening sun in front of the summerhouse is so lovely.

Three garages and parking in front ensure plenty of space for your vehicles, tools, or equipment. Above the garage building is a most wonderful studio space, independently heated with an air heat pump. This makes a fantastic workspace, craft studio, or games room to enjoy with friends.

The striped front lawn seems to stretch on forever. In the summer, play croquet with the children or pitch a marquee and host a large party. The exquisite outdoor space is magical and there to enjoy.
