Description
Perfectly situated within a few hundred yards of the village centre, Treeton Cottage is an imposing period building dating from the late 18th century in the Gothic-style with wonderful south-facing views over Abbotskerswell village.
The accommodation is presently arranged as two connecting three bedroom units known as Treeton Cottage and Longridge Cottage and would be ideal for multi-generational living or as a large single home. General updating of the accommodation is required and the property is bristling with potential.
Outside, a gated drive from Stoneman's Hill provides plenty of parking for numerous cars and a boat/caravan etc and leads to a sizable open-fronted detached double garage building with carport. There is a large modern timber shed/workshop and three block-built kennels. The gardens are grounds provide a lovely private setting with large expanses of lawn, vegetable growing areas various established trees/shrubs and are securely enclosed for pets and children.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly one-off period home and is offered to the market with the benefit of no onward chain.
