Property description
A very rare opportunity to purchase a very private tucked away cottage. The cottage has been with the current owner since 1970 and now requires some updating and improvement.
Set at the end of a private farm lane which is owned by the neighbouring farmer, this property is tucked away at the end of the lane which in turn secures its privacy.
Internally the cottage is full of character and really does represent a rare opportunity.
The accommodation includes a living room with inglenook fireplace and log burning stove along with beamed ceilings and granite laid flagstone flooring. A kitchen with fitted oven and hob along with a walk in larder/pantry with fitted shelving. The ground floor also offers a large dining room with log burning stove and folding doors that lead through to a conservatory at the rear.
The first floor offers spacious bedroom accommodation with three double bedrooms and one single, these rooms all having exposed timber floorboards and views out over the surrounding area.
There is also a bathroom/w.c on the ground floor and a further shower room/w.c on the first floor.
Externally there is a good sized private lawned garden with shrubs, bushes and plants set within, the garden bound open farmland to the side. The property also owns an outbuilding accessed off the lane as you approach the cottage that is in need of repair.
This really is not a property to be missed, if you are looking for something tucked away with lots of character then a viewing is very highly advised.
