Description

The Orchard, 4 Millers Brook is offered to the market for the first time in almost 40 years with potential to improve and extend if required. Whilst there is some expenditure required, this gives the undoubted opportunity for a new owner to arrange the accommodation to suit their own individual requirements. Here is an opportunity to create a dream family home, second home, or holiday let (subject to the necessary planning consents).

The ground floor features a spacious dining/living room, spanning over 32 feet, complete with a central fireplace and sliding doors that open on to a patio and south facing garden. The kitchen opens into a small porch housing the boiler and this leads to the patio and garden, there is also a study with access to this patio. There are two generously sized bedrooms, a cloakroom and family bathroom which complete the ground floor layout.

The stairs lead from the hallway where you will discover two large en-suite bedrooms, one with walk-in wardrobe. Both bedrooms offer stunning views of the surrounding hillsides enveloping Croyde.

Outside, the property features a single garage and driveway parking for 3 to 4 cars, complemented by an attractive lawned front garden. There is access both sides of the property to the spacious south-facing rear garden which is primarily laid to lawn and features mature trees and flower beds. The lawns lead down to a stream at the bottom where there is a wooden summer house,

Potential
The first floor presents an exciting opportunity for prospective buyers, as there is undoubted potential to extend into the roof space, creating additional accommodation if desired. This area has already been partly boarded and utilised for storage in the past, offering ample head height. Furthermore, it is worth considering that the property could be extended to incorporate the garage on the side (subject to planning consents and building regulations).

Don't miss out on the chance to transform this stunning property into your dream coastal home. Contact us today to arrange a viewing to consider this great opportunity.

NB: Some movement has occurred at the property in the past, however, a structural report prepared for the owners has not identified this as a structural issue, rather a problem caused by a lack of maintenance.
