Nestled within the scenic Bowcombe Valley, this property presents a distinctive opportunity to acquire two semi-detached cottages, complete with gardens, various outbuildings, and generous yard space across an expansive total of approximately 0.76 acres (0.31ha). The cottages, believed to date back to the 1930s, exude character while offering significant renovation potential.
3 Idlecombe Cottage is a charming residence that requires modernisation and features a cozy sitting room with a classic fireplace. Its light-filled kitchen provides ample storage solutions, making it ideal for reconfiguration. The first floor boasts a sizable master bedroom equipped with built-in storage and a spacious family bathroom. Additionally, there is a versatile attic room on the second floor that can serve multiple purposes.
