Property Description
Lorna Doone Cottage is a farmhouse style detached residence, offering spacious and flexible accommodation, full of charm and character. Set within approx. 1/2 acre of mature grounds, it benefits from a great deal of privacy, along with breath taking panoramic rural views. It has evolved over the years, with the current owners extending the property, creating a new self contained annexe, whilst sympathetically retaining the overall style and appearance of property. The main cottage offers a large kitchen/diner, lobby/utility room, separate shower room, double aspect living room with wood burner, four double bedrooms and a first floor bathroom. There is also the potential to create access to a roof terrace, from the bathroom or bedroom four. The new build annexe offers comfortable and private accommodation, all on the ground floor, with its own entrance but it also linked to the main cottage if desired. There is a bright living area which takes in the wonderful views, modern fitted kitchen and a double bedroom with ensuite shower room. The outside offers a terrace area and extensive lawn areas, along with off road parking for several vehicles, additional hard standing area, stable and storage sheds. This is a large unique and versatile property, that may suit a variety of applicants requirements.
