PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
* OPEN HOUSE - SATURDAY 14TH MARCH 11AM - 1PM *

Rose Cottage is a beautifully proportioned, detached period home believed to date back to around 1880, quietly situated in the sought-after hamlet of Lower Slade. Enjoying a peaceful setting yet within walking distance of the town centre, the property is also just two miles from the dramatic coastline at Lee Bay. Surrounded by woodland and rolling hills, the cottage benefits from lovely views and offers an appealing balance of rural tranquillity and everyday convenience. Local beaches, along with the renowned Tarka Trail, are close by, providing excellent walking and cycling routes through the scenic Cairn Nature Reserve.

The current owner has carefully enhanced the cottage to an excellent standard, successfully blending contemporary finishes with its original character. Features such as exposed beams sit alongside modern benefits including double glazing throughout and driveway parking for two vehicles.

The accommodation is generous and thoughtfully arranged, beginning with a practical entrance boot room, ideal for coats, boots and outdoor gear. This leads through to a welcoming reception hall, currently used as a dedicated dining room, offering an ideal space for both everyday family meals and more formal entertaining. From here, the layout flows into the main living room, a warm and inviting space centred around a cosy fireplace. Casement doors open directly onto a secluded patio and garden, creating a wonderful connection between indoor and outdoor living and making it a perfect area for relaxation and entertaining.

Also on the ground floor is a versatile additional bedroom, which could equally serve as a home office or offer potential for use as an Airbnb letting. This room benefits from casement doors opening onto the patio, along with an en-suite shower room that can also function as a convenient downstairs WC.

The stylish kitchen is fitted with real wood cabinetry, Apollo Quartz worktops and a double Belfast sink, complemented by natural slate flooring and a breakfast area. This space flows seamlessly into a well-appointed utility room, continuing the same high-quality finishes and providing excellent practicality.

On the first floor, the accommodation comprises three bedrooms, including a spacious principal suite with a dressing area and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. This impressive space features a Burlington claw-foot, double-ended Bateau bath, along with a Kensington basin and taps. A well-fitted shower room serves the remaining first-floor bedrooms.

To the rear of the property, the garden offers a level area laid with artificial turf, leading through to a picket-fenced allotment area. A bespoke lean-to timber greenhouse will appeal to keen gardeners, while a large composite decking area provides an outstanding space to enjoy the surrounding views and outdoor setting.

Offering flexible living arrangements, this exceptional property is ideally suited as a permanent family home or a high-quality holiday cottage. With its combination of period charm, modern comfort and a highly desirable location, early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate all that Rose Cottage has to offer.
