Set within a wonderful location, these two cottages, comprising a generously proportioned two-bedroom main residence and a charming three-bedroom holiday let, combine historic character with modern comfort. This versatile property offers a range of possibilities, from multi-generational living to generating income through the successful holiday let. Both cottages have been lovingly restored to a high standard, preserving their original charm and period features while introducing modern amenities and energy-efficient upgrades. With attractive carrstone and brick facades, oak flooring, wood-burning stoves, and bespoke fittings, the cottages retain their historic appeal while offering contemporary living standards. The beautifully landscaped gardens, private parking, and solar panels enhance the overall functionality and sustainability of the property.
The main house
Dating back to 1826 and built using attractive carrstone and brick, the main residence offers a wealth of character with tasteful contemporary updates. The accommodation begins with a spacious entrance hall/boot room offering ample fitted storage. From here, oak parquet flooring flows throughout the ground floor, leading into the cosy yet elegant living room, complete with a wood-burning stove, ideal for quiet evenings in. As you move further through the property you will find the show-stopping open-plan kitchen/diner. This space is both stylish and practical, featuring a bespoke fitted kitchen with island unit, integrated appliances, and a feature oak and glass staircase that forms a striking focal point. A separate utility room and cloakroom WC complete the ground floor. Upstairs, two beautifully appointed double bedrooms which are a generous size, each enjoy their own en-suite bathrooms rooms finished to an exceptional standard. The master bedroom also benefits from a walk-in wardrobe/dressing area, providing ample storage space.
Swift cottage
Swift Cottage is a delightful and deceptively spacious three-bedroom cottage which sits seamlessly alongside the main residence, with its own independent entrance and a well-considered layout that caters perfectly for guests, extended family, or as an established holiday let. Retaining much of its original charm while enjoying tasteful modern enhancements, the cottage offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout. The first room you encounter is the cosy living area, featuring an attractive fireplace which adds character and charm, making it the perfect space to relax after a day exploring the nearby coast or countryside. The dining room provides a dedicated space for family meals or entertaining, with ample room for a large dining table. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a practical range of wall and base units, with plenty of worktop space and integrated appliances. There is space for a small breakfast table, making it a social and practical area for everyday living. A useful ground-floor WC completes the downstairs accommodation. Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms, each with their own character, and served by a stylishly appointed family bathroom. Whether used as a letting property or for visiting family and friends, Swift Cottage is a charming and well-presented space in its own right.
