Park Cottage is an attractive, newly refurbished four‑bedroom detached home in the peaceful coastal hamlet of Lee. Set on a large elevated plot of around 3/4 acre with an additional 1¼‑acre paddock across the road, the house combines period character with contemporary finish — bright living rooms, exposed beams, and modern bathrooms alongside original fireplaces and granite walls.
The accommodation is well balanced for family life and entertaining: a large living room with wood‑burner and bay window, separate dining room, study (or ground‑floor bedroom), spacious kitchen with pantry, utility and three ensuite/bathroom facilities. The principal suite includes fitted wardrobes and a four‑piece en‑suite; the guest suite also benefits from an ensuite and walk‑in wardrobe. Large windows and skylights flood the interior with natural light.
Outside is a major asset: extensive landscaped gardens, terraced decking with covered hot tub, greenhouse, shed and lean‑to, detached double garage with boarded loft storage and solar panels, and hardstanding parking for multiple vehicles plus EV power supply. The additional paddock includes a small stream and offers scope for equestrian, hobby‑farm or recreational use.
Notable practical points: heating is by oil‑fired boiler with radiators and the property uses private drainage. The original granite walls are assumed uninsulated in places and the building dates from 1840 — buyers should consider fabric and services when budgeting for long‑term running costs. The property sits in a medium flood‑risk area and council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall this is a rare, flexible family home in a very private, rural/coastal setting that will particularly suit buyers wanting ready‑to‑move‑into accommodation plus substantial outdoor space.
