Description

Nestled within the serene grounds of a Victorian country house, this charming stone cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors. Set on approximately 0.60 acres of private garden, the property features quaint arched windows and offers considerable potential across its two floors. Entering the cottage, you're welcomed by a vestibule that leads to an entrance hall with a staircase to the upper level. To one side lies a dining room that could easily function as a third bedroom, while the sitting room flows into the kitchen area. On the first floor, two generously sized double bedrooms are complemented by a centrally located bathroom. The extensive garden is surrounded by mature woodland, providing both seclusion and tranquillity. Additional amenities include a detached single garage, timber shed, and a dog run with kennel. It’s important to note that significant modernisation work is required throughout the property as it is being sold in its current condition without guarantees. This provides an exciting blank canvas for renovation, making it ideal for those looking to create their dream home or transform it into an investment opportunity. Viewings are strictly by appointment only, given the gated access and need for caution due to the property's condition.
