Hill View Cottage, Milcombe

The Property

Hill View Cottage, Milcombe is an exceptional period cottage with many character features and is considered to be one of the oldest properties within the village. The property is located in a private, tucked away position and is set within mature gardens of approximately a third of an acre with off road parking for several vehicles, a garage, a carport and space to create additional garaging if required. Within recent years the property has been sympathetically extended and greatly improved and now provides excellent living accommodation which is arranged over two floors. On the ground floor the entrance hallway leads on to three reception rooms, a utility room, a wet room and a superb kitchen/breakfast room with access to the rear garden. On the first floor, the landing leads onto three double bedrooms, a single bedroom and two bathrooms.

We have prepared a floorplan to show the room sizes and layout. Some of the main features include:
