Sellers insight


Spring Cottage has been our happy place for nearly thirty years now. From humble beginnings as a tumbledown building, it has been transformed into the welcoming home and practical work hub you see today.

The living space is generous and versatile. The downstairs shower is as handy for muddy paws as it is for extra humans!

Outdoors, a trek to the top of the garden is rewarded by excellent views along the river and down through the valley while the workshop/hobby room at the back of the garage and the large shed in the adjoining paddock provide plenty of potential for work and play.

It’s a joy to live in the Bulland valley - it is truly beautiful all year round. At the end of a busy day, a gentle stroll along the river or a quiet cuppa on the patio, listening to the birds, soothes the soul. It works every time.
