Storybook-worthy and wonderfully unique, this charming Manchester property is a little oasis tucked away just minutes from downtown. Inspired by the feel of an English cottage with a clean, Scandinavian-influenced aesthetic, the property combines warmth, character and thoughtful design with an unusual amount of flexibility. The main house is an inviting one-bedroom, 1.5-bath cottage (1142 sq ft) filled with natural light and cozy details. The beautifully designed kitchen is both stylish and highly functional, with an excellent layout and new upscale appliances (2025). Recent improvements include a generator (2023), propane fireplace insert (2023), all new windows and exterior doors (2025), interior and exterior painting (2024-2025), and an updated driveway with a gorgeous bluestone walkway (2024). Across the slate patio is The Makery, a wonderful flexible studio space (240 sq ft) that could serve as an office, creative studio, gym, or an incredible game or party room. A separate renovated (2026) three-season guest cottage (192 sq ft) offers a bedroom and full bath and provides the perfect cozy space for guests, a home office or family members, just across the yard. The beautifully landscaped, fenced backyard feels remarkably private and secluded, creating a true oasis. The front yard features peach and apple trees, creating a charming mini orchard. With three distinct buildings arranged around the property, it feels more like a tiny compound than a traditional home. All of this, yet you are just minutes from Manchester's shops, restaurants and amenities, with the convenience of town water and sewer. A truly special property that feels both tucked away and connected-full of charm, flexibility and possibilities.
