This three-bedroom semi‑detached cottage sits in a peaceful rural setting near Whauphill, offering a compact, characterful home on a generous plot. The living space centres on a cosy room with a multi‑fuel stove and oil‑fired central heating, suitable for year‑round comfort. The single‑storey layout and private garden will appeal to buyers seeking a quiet countryside retreat or a downsized permanent home.
The plot is a major asset: expansive lawn, mature trees and outbuildings provide scope for landscaping, a vegetable garden, or modest extension subject to planning. The property appears to need updating internally — low ceilings, dated finishes and general refurbishment are present — so it suits someone happy to carry out improvement work to add value and personalise the cottage.
Practical considerations are straightforward: freehold tenure, low council tax banding and no flood risk. Connectivity is mixed — excellent mobile signal but slow broadband — and the wider area is classified as remote and very deprived, which may affect services and commuting. Overall, this is a rural cottage with genuine outdoor space and renovation potential suited to buyers seeking privacy and countryside living.
