Description

Situated at the edge of Dartmoor National Park in Bickington, Lee Cottage is a detached period residence that offers substantial potential for renovation and investment. The property boasts a blend of character features including exposed stonework, timber beams, and ample double-glazed leaded windows that enhance its charm and inviting atmosphere. With three generously sized reception rooms featuring granite fireplaces and wood-burners, plus a family kitchen-dining area equipped with an oil-fired Aga, there is plenty of space to accommodate both family life and entertaining guests. The house consists of five bedrooms, making it ideal for larger families or as a spacious rental option. Additionally, the one-bedroom annexe presents an excellent opportunity for generating income through Airbnb or long-term letting, with an estimated rental value of £750 per month. Set on approximately 1.17 acres, the grounds include extensive outdoor space ideal for gardening or recreational use, along with multiple outbuildings such as an agricultural barn with stabling facilities which can be repurposed for various uses or workshops. While the property currently requires updating and some refurbishment, particularly in kitchen and bathroom fittings, it provides a blank canvas for buyers looking to add their distinct touch. Given its versatile layout and rural setting—just a few minutes from essential amenities in Ashburton—this property holds significant potential for both residential enjoyment and investment income. It is available with no onward chain.
