Waldrons Lane, Crewe, CW1

Tucked away behind secure electric gates, this enchanting four-bedroom detached cottage dates back to the 1830s and sits proudly on a generous plot extending to approximately 1.2 acres. Surrounded by mature, south-facing gardens and rich with period charm, this private and peaceful residence offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking space, tranquillity, and character—blended seamlessly with modern comforts including double glazing and a security alarm complemented with interior and exterior CCTV.

Inside, the cottage reveals an abundance of beautifully presented living space. Two distinct lounges provide warmth and versatility: a snug and inviting winter lounge with a characterful log burner and twin windows sets the tone for cosy evenings, while the bright and breezy summer lounge offers garden views and direct access to the patio, bathed in natural light from multiple windows and glazed doors.

The spacious kitchen is both charming and practical, featuring a traditional oil-fuelled AGA, extensive wall and base units, space for a fridge freezer and dishwasher, and housing the oil boiler. A separate utility room adds further convenience with extra storage, a sink, washing machine space, and access to the rear garden—perfect for muddy boots or dogs after countryside walks.

The formal dining room is a characterful hub of the home, with original exposed beams and a welcoming atmosphere, flowing effortlessly through to a peaceful study area and into the summer lounge, providing both practicality and elegance for family living or entertaining.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned double bedrooms offer flexible accommodation for family and guests. The principal bedroom suite is a true highlight, boasting exposed brickwork and beams, and its own private dressing room, both of which have total blackout blinds, and a spacious en-suite bathroom complete with jacuzzi bath, separate shower, WC and wash hand basin. Bedroom four also enjoys the charm of exposed brick and beams. The stylish family bathroom has a bath with shower over and serves the remaining bedrooms with ease.

Outside, the grounds are simply magical. Surrounded by nature and full of seasonal colour, the garden features a peaceful pond, lawn, and mature trees and shrubs. There is a wonderfully abundant organic orchard filled with apples, plums, pears and cherries, and a mature soft fruit area with thornless Blackberries, Raspberries and Redcurrants — all in all offering both beauty and bounty throughout the year.

The expansive driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles and larger vehicles including work van, mini-bus, caravan, or motor home, and is complemented by two detached garages. Adding further value is a partially converted detached studio outbuilding with its own electric supply and a boarded roof space for storage, and along with the garages offer great scope to be transformed into a guest suite, home office, gym, or entertainment/games room, or they could be adapted and utilised for a home business such as dog grooming or beauty salon, or used to create animal shelters.

Nestled in a tranquil, secluded setting, this rare and character-rich property is more than just a place to live—it’s a lifestyle. Whether you’re dreaming of countryside serenity, space to grow, or the charm of a historic retreat, this cottage delivers it all.
