The traditional property at The Glen, Windgap, has been substantially extended and reconfigured over time, resulting in a well-proportioned family home combining original character with more modern accommodation. The dwelling appears to have originated as a two-bay cottage, subsequently extended to the side and rear, and later enhanced with a two-storey extension, creating a spacious and functional layout. This house sits on a c.0.9 acre site. Note that the property has been unoccupied for over 2 years.
Internally, the property retains a number of original features, including an original fireplace (now fitted with a stove) and a flagstone floor within the main living space, while the extensions provide additional reception areas, kitchen/dining facilities, and expanded bedroom accommodation. The layout is versatile, with multiple reception rooms, one of which could alternatively be utilised as a ground floor bedroom if required.
The main living accommodation now centres around a kitchen/dining area to the rear within the extension, complemented by a secondary entrance hall which effectively serves as the principal access point to the house. This section also incorporates a ground floor WC and provides access to the rear of the property.
At first floor level, the property offers four bedrooms together with a family bathroom, all accessed from a bright landing area benefitting from natural light via two windows.
Externally, the property includes a substantial detached garage of concrete construction with an up-and-over door, along with multiple additional outbuildings, including a lean-to shed adjoining the house and two further ourtbuildings to the front. These structures provide ample storage and potential for a variety of uses.
