PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Built in 1861 as a wildfowler retreat, this charming Victorian 2 bedroom /2 bathroom cottage benefits from high ceilings to the ground floor rooms, creating a light and spacious feel to the living accommodation. It boasts a peaceful well-established garden and private off-street parking, with extra parking through large double gates.
An entrance hallway gives access to a spacious dining kitchen with original wood floors and a wood burning stove leading to a useful utility room. The hall also gives access to a shower room and cosy sitting room with an open fire. A glazed door leads to the garden room offering breathtaking views of the mature garden and parish church. The staircase leads from the sitting room to the first floor landing giving access to two double bedrooms boasting uninterrupted views of the church, priory ruins, and across the sea to the mainland. The principal bedroom features panelling and an en-suite shower-bathroom.
The back door leads to the south facing mature garden featuring flower beds, lawn and a patio at the top corner where it is possible to relax and make the most of the spectacular views.
Currently run as a successful holiday let, the cottage is equipped with solar panels and extra wall insulation, installed in 2013 with a Feed-In Tariff generating approx £1,500 per annum income. The system produces up to 2.1kV with a controller that efficiently diverts surplus electricity to heat the hot water tank, significantly reducing energy bills while maximizing the renewable energy.
