Dating back to the mid-1800s and set behind a charming frontage along the ever popular Upholland Road, resting within the highly regarded village of Billinge, Laburnum Cottage is a truly captivating detached stone property that effortlessly blends period charm with thoughtful modern enhancement. Occupying a beautifully landscaped plot extending to approximately 1/5 acre, this enchanting cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of genuine character, individuality and warmth. The property also includes an vehicle EV Charger.

From the moment the property comes into view, its kerb appeal is unmistakable. The handsome stone façade, complemented by a traditional boundary wall and mature planting, creates an immediate sense of timeless charm. A generous driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached stone garage, while the surrounding gardens – carefully cultivated in a quintessential cottage style – frame the home beautifully. Meandering Indian stone pathways and patio areas invite quiet moments outdoors, perfectly positioned to take full advantage of the south-facing aspect, where sunlight moves across the gardens throughout the day.

The cottage itself has been meticulously maintained and significantly improved over recent years, ensuring it retains its historic character while offering the comfort and efficiency expected of a modern home. A renovation undertaken in 2018 introduced new flooring throughout alongside a beautifully appointed kitchen and bathroom suite. Further enhancements in 2023 included the installation of new windows and a new heating system. Over the years, the home has also been extended, creating generous and versatile accommodation that now extends to approximately 1,791 sq.ft.

Upon entering the property, the ground floor offers an inviting and well-balanced layout that flows naturally between reception spaces. A beautifully proportioned living room, forms the heart of the home – an elegant and relaxing setting for everyday living. The adjoining dining room offers a welcoming space for family gatherings, enjoying views out towards the gardens and connecting seamlessly with the rest of the ground floor.

To the rear lies a substantial kitchen diner, an impressive space and thoughtfully designed as the social hub of the home. With generous work surfaces, integrated appliances and space for informal dining, it is both practical and stylish, while doors opening to the garden allow indoor living to extend effortlessly outside during warmer months.
