A character stone cottage set on an elevated, generous plot in sought-after Portesham, offering distant sea and open countryside views. The house is vacant and chain-free, with two reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, utility, and three double bedrooms — a comfortable layout for family living or holiday conversion.
The property requires comprehensive updating throughout: cosmetic refurbishment, modern heating/electrics may be needed, and general redecoration. It already benefits from UPVC double glazing and an oil-fired boiler, but the construction is traditional stone with assumed limited wall insulation.
Outside there is a wide front and side garden with greenhouse and shed, plus a garage accessed from a narrow rear lane. There is no allocated off-road parking included with the property which may affect some buyers; on-street parking only. Broadband and mobile signals are adequate to strong depending on provider.
This home will suit buyers seeking a period cottage with scope to improve and personalise — families wanting village life, renovators aiming for value-add, or investors considering holiday let potential (subject to permissions). Budget for renovation and upgrades to heating, electrics and possible insulation works when assessing value.
