Corner Cottage Pages.indd 2 12/02/2020 10:33 Corner Cottage Pages.indd 3 12/02/2020 10:33 SELLER INSIGHT This spacious detached property, built fifteen years ago to a high standard, sits in the centre of the south Derbyshire village of Rosliston, a sought-after village in central England within easy reach of Burton on Trent, Swadlincote and Lichfield. It’s been home to the current owners for just under three years, in which time they’ve not only enjoyed the house but have become part of a close-knit and lively community. ‘After a lengthy and fruitless search for a new home, Corner Cottage was the only property that really wowed us with its lovely open-plan living area and fully enclosed back garden. Its central location in the heart of the village is excellent and we were immediately made to feel welcome by the villagers – it’s only a few minutes-walk away from the National Forest and popular Forestry Centre too. Over the past two years we’ve made many wonderful friends and have been involved in a variety of community events, from the book club, to the quiz nights.’ The village, which is surrounded by glorious open-countryside, is well-equipped with a primary school, church, village hall, Coop minimarket with post office, Rosliston Fish Bar, the Honey Pot Café and The Bulls Head pub. We’ve hosted many social events in our short time here; the size of the house makes it perfect for entertaining.’ ‘There’s always something social to do in the village, be it a pilates, a yoga class or the WI in the village hall or a visit to nearby Forestry where you’ll find The Glade, a popular wedding venue which hosts a variety of shows, including Last Night at the Proms on their open-air stage. The Forestry also provides a range of activities for all ages: butterfly walks, Nordic walking, Thai Chi, crafts sessions for kids, and many other activities. The local plant Nursery on the edge of the village is a great one-stop-shop for gardeners.’ One of our favourite parts of the property is the snug, that we affectionately call ‘The Coffee Corner’, it’s where we sit each morning, coffee in hand, and watch the village go by.’ ‘We’ll miss the friendliness of the villagers and the added security that can only be achieved in a close-knit community such as Rosliston.’* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an in- sight into life at the property.
