The story-book exterior of this semi detached cottage is enchanting and once inside the interior does not disappoint either.....
Having been renovated to a high standard. The exposed wooden floors, inglenook fireplace housing a log burner, along with characterful features such as original beams, make this an ideal place for rest and relaxation. Light the fire, kick off your shoes and curl up on the sofa and you may just feel like you’ve gone back in time, if it wasn’t for the modern twists! The front door opens directly into a welcoming, country style kitchen – which is well equipped with everything you will need to prepare those delicious, home-cooked evening meals. There is a dining table adjacent to the cooking area, making it quick and easy to transfer food to hungry guests. The family bathroom is also on the ground floor, with a freestanding, roll top bath perfectly placed to help rejuvenate you after a day exploring the island.
The stairs lead off the lounge and up to three tastefully decorated bedrooms consisting of one double, one twin and one single, which all have access to the upstairs shower room. The off-white walls are a calming backdrop for the stylish but understated soft furnishings.
Outside the courtyard garden is the ultimate suntrap, where you can enjoy a morning cuppa or dinner on a balmy summer evening. The two off road parking spaces are located just in front of the courtyard, making it convenient to unload luggage directly into the cottage.
