"Have you ever dreamt of a life in the country? A homely place to live, some outside space, a workshop or two to tinker about in? Welcome to 6 Cochranes Lane."
Located on a shared laneway close to Carrowdore village, this detached cottage traces its roots back about 200 years. It benefited from a significant extension in and around the 1970's and now offers 4 double bedrooms in addition to the original lounge and dining room. There is also a modern bathroom and a pratical kitchen but some modernisation and upgrading should be anticipated to meet most buyers needs and tastes.
The property benefits from uPVC double glazing & fascia, oil fired central heating, a solid fuel Rayburn range, and a "rented roof" solar system to reduce running costs. Externally the grounds extend to approx. 0.5 acres with lawns, mature shrubs, concrete and stone parking areas plus garage/workshop and a large metal "Barn style" shed with messinine floor.
Please read the "Buyers notes" attached, prior to requesting a viewing, and be realistic in your expectations of an older property that will benefit from some modernisation, and we don't think you'll be dissappointed.

Note To Buyers

This property has solar panels on a "rented roof" basis. The lease should be transferrable to the new owner at a cost, but the buyers solicitor will need to confirm acceptance of this.
The original part of the property, lounge & dining room, were built approximately 200 years ago so buyers should not expect "new build" standards.
Some modernisation and remedial work should reasonably be anticipated by buyers and the property has been priced accordingly so further negotiations will not be entered into post survey. Buyers are welcome to conduct their own survey prior to making an offer.
Cash buyers are preferred or buyers with substantial (minimum 50%) deposit.
