Description
A charming chocolate-box cottage, beautifully maintained by the current owners, offering a peaceful retreat just moments from the ever-popular South Milton Sands.
Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a wealth of character and inviting living spaces that perfectly complement the cottage. The cosy sitting room is centred around an impressive inglenook fireplace with an electric wood-burning stove, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere, the perfect place to relax after a day spent exploring the nearby coastline. As you continue on the ground floor, a separate kitchen and dining area reflects the cottage's timeless charm. Thoughtfully designed to balance period appeal with modern practicality, it provides a wonderful space for everything from leisurely breakfasts to intimate dinners with family and friends.
Upstairs, the property offers a beautifully presented and well-proportioned double bedroom and bathroom, both thoughtfully designed to maximise space and natural light. Lovingly cared for throughout, the cottage provides comfortable and stylish accommodation whilst retaining its delightful period character.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped gardens are a true highlight, providing a private and tranquil setting to enjoy throughout the seasons. Nestled within the garden is a charming summer house with power connected, offering excellent versatility as a home office, artist's studio, hobby room, or simply a peaceful space to relax and take in the surroundings.
