Description

This charming cottage, set on approximately 1 acre of stunning garden and woodland adjacent to the East Lyn River within Exmoor National Park, presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property ripe for renovation. The cottage features classic architectural elements such as a slate roof and color-washed rendered walls, spread over two floors. Inside, you'll find a dining room, kitchen, cozy sitting room with a fireplace, and a practical boot room. The upstairs boasts two bedrooms, including an en suite master bedroom and an additional bathroom. While the property offers picturesque views of the river and surrounding farmland from its elevated position, it does require some updating to meet modern standards. With no onward chain and direct access to both the riverbank and nearby footpaths, this location provides not just beauty but also potential. The extensive gardens and woodlands add considerable scope for landscaping or further development (subject to planning permissions), appealing to both nature lovers and investors alike. Nearby amenities in Lynton offer convenience while the idyllic rural setting ensures tranquility. Additionally, the property's legal right of way enhances accessibility - making this an enticing choice for buyers interested in creating their own retreat or investment property.
