Description: This group of stone buildings has fabulous potential; work has already commenced on the little house but it remains a renovation project and is not habitable immediately. With the relevant permissions, it is possible to expand into either (or both) of the Barns, that are attached on either side of the cottage, in an L around the courtyard. The garden lies at the rear, accessible via the goat house. The property is partly attached to neighbours (thick stone walls) but is not directly overlooked and can be made even more private; it benefits from approx. 65.9m2 of habitable space in the old cottage plus approx. 148.5m2 (footprint) of outbuildings, laid out as follows:
Old Cottage: One Ground Floor Room (approx.33m2- previously kitchen/sitting room), with original staircase, the floor has been removed ready for work. On the 1st Floor: 2 connected Bedrooms (approx. 20.4 & 12.5m2 with exposed timbers and original floorboards) and, on the same level, a convertible attic (above Barn 1) of approx.39m2.
Roof reviewed in 2013; No Bathroom; Septic Tank required; 1 x dble glazed UPVC French doors with UPVC shutters, otherwise old single glazing with wooden shutters; 1 air/heat exchange air con system (yes, really!); 1 Sink (in the old bulls-eye window); Chimney; Electric Water-Heater (100L <6 years old); Water & Electric meters are installed; complete rewire required.
Energy report pending.
Outbuildings: The ground floor room of the cottage opens into the old, stone Goat House (and then the garden) on one side and into Barn 1 (approx. 56m2) on the other; this barn is under the same roof as the cottage.
