This charming south-facing cottage, believed to date back to 1700, is steeped in character and offers significant potential for renovation and enhancement. Located in a picturesque rural setting, the property boasts a generous garden space, a detached barn, and scenic countryside views that could be transformed into a lovely retreat or investment opportunity. The original features include an inglenook fireplace, exposed beams, and flagstone floors which contribute to its historical charm but require modernising throughout.
The layout includes two reception rooms on the ground floor—each with wood-burning stoves—and a kitchen equipped with floor-standing units and a sizable pantry. A separate cloakroom and utility room add convenience, while upstairs hosts two double bedrooms offering fine views of the surrounding hills along with an additional bathroom. The upper attic area presents flexibility for further development.
The outside space is particularly noteworthy; just under half an acre with well-maintained gardens featuring various shrubs, fruit trees, and even a large greenhouse. The detached stone barn currently serves as a workshop but has previously been successfully used as rental accommodation.
Given the visible cracks reported on the property and potential non-compliance of the septic tank, prospective buyers should undertake independent assessments while considering renovation plans that might involve expanding the living spaces subject to planning permissions. This property not only holds residential appeal but also harbors considerable investment potential for those willing to delve into renovation projects.
