Description

This charming 17th-century detached cottage, set on approximately an acre of land, presents a unique investment opportunity in the desirable area of Dobcross. With breathtaking views and surrounded by nature, this property offers both a family-friendly home and potential for further development. The existing structure features a cozy front porch, a spacious lounge complete with a multi-fuel stove, and a snug that could serve as an office or additional living space. The dining room's original stone fireplace adds character to the home, while the shaker-style kitchen equipped with granite surfaces and quality appliances caters for modern living needs. The first floor comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms adorned with period features like decorative fireplaces and exposed beams. Two bathrooms provide convenience for family living. The cottage benefits from oil central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout. Externally, this property boasts mature gardens that offer privacy along with various outdoor seating areas to enjoy the stunning vistas. A noteworthy aspect is the outbuilding at the rear, previously utilized as a home office but now requiring renovation—ideal for those looking to create additional living or working space. Also, there is planning permission granted to replace the garage with a one-bedroom annex which further enhances its investment potential. Given its characterful charm and extensive grounds, this cottage is perfect for buyers interested in making improvements while enjoying country life within close proximity to local amenities.
