Description

Nestled on the edge of Exmoor National Park, this three-bedroom detached bungalow, Broomstreet Cottage, offers a unique investment opportunity with its expansive 12 acres of pastureland. The property benefits from stunning panoramic views across the Bristol Channel and is conveniently located just a short drive from Porlock and other charming Exmoor villages such as Exford, Lynmouth, and Minehead. While the property features traditional stone construction with a slate roof and an extension to the north, it presents considerable potential for modernisation to meet contemporary living standards. The interior includes an entrance hallway leading to a cozy sitting room equipped with an oil-fired Rayburn, a functional galley kitchen, and a utility area that could be re-purposed into additional living space. Each bedroom has its own character; particularly notable is the main bedroom which boasts sea views. Given its current condition and amenities—including shared private water supply, mains electricity, septic tank drainage—there is ample scope for enhancements subject to necessary approvals. Investors will find this property appealing not only for its scenic location but also for the possibilities it holds for refurbishment and personalisation.
