KILLINALLAN COTTAGE
SCHOOL STREET
PORT CHARLOTTE

Introduced to the market for the first time since construction in 2008, Killinallan Cottage presents an opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented home, in walk-in condition. This SEMI-DETACHED dwellinghouse, of timber frame construction under a slate roof, is pebble dashed externally and whitewashed, in keeping with the traditional character of the older properties within the renowned Conservation village of Port Charlotte.

With flexible living areas, 3 bedrooms, 3 shower rooms (2 of which are en-suite) and a family bathroom over two levels the property lends itself perfectly to family life or use as a holiday home for either personal use or for holiday lets, as the current owners do very successfully.

The property benefits from full double glazing throughout, in traditional sash and case style, with space heating provided by way of a wet electric central heating system. Carpeted in a neutral shade throughout, with tiled floors in the kitchen, shower rooms and bathroom, the property is in true walk-in condition.

Overall, Killinallan Cottage provides bright and spacious accommodation in a sought after location on the island. Early viewing is highly recommended.
