Property
Primrose Cottage sits at the end of a private long driveway that was once part of the cart track leading up to Saltwood Castle, offering a secluded setting away from nearby properties.
This charming cottage has Georgian origins, built on the former grounds of Saltwood Abbey, and though unlisted, it retains lovely period features alongside Victorian additions. A spacious kitchen/breakfast room was added in 2000, and the cottage is fitted with wood casement windows with double and triple glazing. The property has gas central heating and was rewired and replumbed in 2003.
The front entrance opens into a vestibule with Chinese porcelain floor tiles, leading to a small entrance hall with oak flooring that extends throughout most of the ground floor. From here, a door leads to the cosy sitting room, the oldest part of the cottage, featuring a fireplace with a wood burner, French doors that open to the rear garden and patio, and a second door connecting to a study with access to a...
Outside
The cottage is surrounded by gardens on all sides, primarily laid to lawn and featuring a variety of fruit trees, including apple, pear, and crab apple, along with small shrubs, a garden pond, and a built in coal bunker and bin store to the side of the house. At the front a blue slate garden is planted with lavender bushes, adding charm to the entrance.
The driveway leads to a detached timber garage and workshop with double doors, power and lighting, built in 2020.
