Ozankoy, Girne, north of Cyprus

Acorn Estate Agency are extremely proud to be exclusively marketing this traditional and charming one-bedroom cottage, called The Old Forge. Built in 1898 this home is steeped in history, full of character and has many original features, including stunning tall wooden doors, wood beamed ceilings, stone fireplace, air vents and thick walls. Also, it was previously owned by an Irish Lord and the original owner was John Church who was an orphan left on church steps, hence his name.

The property is tucked away in the heart of Ozankoy Village, where you have bars, restaurants, shops, barbers and the best butchers' shop in North Cyprus, which people travel from all over the island for!

Upon entering, you'll find a spacious hallway/dining room and to the right you have beautiful tall wooden doors that take you to the living room, which has original flagstone flooring and stone fireplace and then you have the fully fitted kitchen with kitchen appliances. To the left (again with the double wooden doors) is the good-sized bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a newly fitted spacious ensuite wet room. Additionally, there are two separate double bedrooms with their own entrances and ensuite bathrooms, making it ideal for friends and family to have their own space, or even for Airbnb rentals. Both the cottage and the 2 bedrooms have inverter air conditioning units and the properties are being sold fully furnished throughout.

Outside, the gardens are low maintenance but very lush; there is an overflow swimming pool (which has recently been re-grouted, a new pump and sand filter) and many mature trees, including 4 orange trees that are great to sit under and give natural shade. You have a roof terrace with a beautiful mountain backdrop, some sea views and is just perfect for enjoying a relaxing 'sun-downer.' This charming home also has 7 solar panels (meaning cheap electric bills!), an outside shower room, BBQ, shutters, private gated off-street parking and a Pre74 English title. This home is exclusively available for Turkish or Turkish Cypriot clients, making it a rare find in a desirable location. Dream Big, the Acorn does!
