Description

A RARE AND HIGHLY INDIVIDUAL OPPORTUNITY! Angel Cottage is a charming two bedroom home occupying a generous plot and offering much more than initially meets the eye. Alongside the main cottage is a substantial garden, a detached garden building with its own kitchen and bathroom facilities and, importantly, land which has previously benefitted from planning permission for the construction of a one bedroom bungalow. This makes the property particularly interesting to builders, developers and purchasers looking for a home with future development potential, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

ANGEL COTTAGE is a distinctive and characterful two bedroom cottage offering an excellent combination of comfortable residential accommodation, substantial outside space and significant future potential.

The main property provides approximately 70.5 sq m (759 sq ft) of accommodation and opens into a generous living room, measuring approximately 4.19m x 4.26m, providing ample space for both relaxing and entertaining.

Adjoining the living accommodation is a spacious fitted kitchen measuring approximately 4.91m x 2.76m, offering a good range of units, worktop space and room for appliances. A particularly useful separate laundry room, measuring approximately 3.49m x 1.31m, provides valuable additional utility and storage space.

To the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom measuring approximately 3.77m x 3.72m and the second approximately 2.85m x 3.37m. Completing the first floor is a generous house bathroom measuring approximately 1.67m x 3.37m.

One of the property's most significant features is undoubtedly the outside space. Angel Cottage occupies a substantial plot with generous gardens and additional land, creating an opportunity rarely found with properties of this type.

Of particular interest to builders, developers and investment purchasers, part of the land is understood to have previously benefitted from planning permission for the construction of a one bedroom bungalow. Although any previous consent would need to be independently checked and, where necessary, reapplied for, the historic planning position demonstrates the property's potentially significant development appeal.

Also situated within the grounds is a substantial detached garden building, providing approximately 22.2 sq m (239 sq ft) of additional space. The building incorporates a generous main room with fitted kitchen facilities together with a separate bathroom, providing superb flexibility for a variety of ancillary uses such as entertaining, working from home, hobbies or additional recreational space.

The floorplan shows approximately 92.7 sq m (998 sq ft) across the main cottage and detached garden building combined.

Combining a characterful existing home with generous grounds, additional accommodation and a previously established precedent for residential development within the land, Angel Cottage represents an unusual and exciting proposition with considerable scope for the next owner.
