Description
The Cottage sits on a peaceful plot measuring 0.6 acres which is surrounded by open picturesque countryside with far and wide stretching views. This unique and individual home has had many improvements made to it by the current owners and comprises of three main structures and comes with many elements with multipurpose uses. Starting with the main three bedroom part timber clad house we are advised this has parts dating back to Circa 1932 and has been completely renovated and doubled in size to its original form and is now a luxury 21st Century home with the benefit of further planning permission pending to extend it further.
Within the grounds is a self-contained one bedroom annex, which is currently used by the owners as a home office but could be used for either of these uses or just enjoyed as a garden room and entertaining space. Then there’s a spacious 946 square foot self-contained office which is a dream for those that need to run their business from home, however, this structure could be made into residential subject to the planning consent. So, whilst this property is likely to suit an array of buyers for different reasons, the plot’s location is truly its main selling point. The wrap around lawned garden offers many elements, however, its main feature is a rear decking area with sunken jacuzzi, where you can sit and relax after a long day and capture the valley views and watch the sunset. Whist the property benefits from an in and out electric gated entrance leading to a spacious gravel forecourt with ample parking and a double carriage carport and store.

Seller Insight
“We were looking for a home which would also accommodate our business needs, when we came across The Cottage,” say the current owners. “This three-bedroom detached house, with its large external office space to one side, suited all our requirements. What’s more, the peace and quiet of the property held great appeal. Since moving in, the owners have made various improvements to the property. “Most of the enhancements we have made have been external,” they say, “including the installation of electric gates and a car port, and relandscaping the garden. We have also converted the summerhouse into additional office space, while leaving scope for it to be turned back into living accommodation should the next owners wish to do so. Inside, the loft space has been transformed into a playroom, which our children love.”
