Blacksmiths Cottage is a charming, detached Border Oak property set in an inviting village environment. This traditional home features a distinctive oak frame construction and retains many original architectural elements, making it a canvas for restoration or enhancement. The accompanying Blacksmith's Shop has been transformed into a versatile self-contained annexe, complete with kitchenette and en-suite bathroom, offering potential rental or guest space.
Internally, the property boasts generous living areas with vaulted ceilings and extensive natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows. The large reception hall leads to an open-plan kitchen and dining area that retains rustic charm while providing modern conveniences like a Sandyford oil-fired cooking range. The ground floor also includes multiple utility spaces and a cozy sitting room featuring a wood-burning stove.
Upstairs presents an opportunity to reconfigure the existing layout; the current three double bedrooms could easily accommodate four with some partitioning. Outside, the landscaped gardens invite enhancements or extensions, especially considering the potential to expand the annexe by converting the carport (subject to planning consent). With several fruit trees and outdoor storage spaces already in place, this property offers significant investment potential for those looking to make it their own in this beautiful countryside setting.
