Description

A fantastic opportunity to purchase a three bedroom cottage dating back to 1776; tucked away in a secluded, rural location close to Staverton on a plot of at least an acre and boasting a standalone one bedroom annexe and detached one bedroom Lodge. There are additional outbuildings included in the sale, one of which is a large 230sqm work shop and the other, a 90sqm stone built barn, which subject to planning could make a beautiful home with views across open countryside. This property would suit a variety of applications including multi-generational families, downsizers looking to create additional income through holiday lets or people looking to combine their residential and commercial premises into one. Properties of this configuration and so keenly priced rarely come to the market and viewing is highly recommended. No Onward Chain.
