A detached 1930s stone cottage set in just over one acre, offered for sale by public auction. The small three-bedroom dwelling is accompanied by substantial stone outbuildings and an open-fronted Dutch barn, all requiring renovation. The site is approached via a long private track and enjoys high privacy with countryside and distant coastal views.
This is a clear project for an experienced purchaser or developer. The house has mains gas, water and electricity but services, heating and electrics are untested; the walls are solid brick with no known insulation and the interior needs full modernisation. Substantial outbuildings present scope for conversion to ancillary accommodation, holiday let income or workshop space, subject to planning consents.
Sale by public auction means a committed, time-sensitive purchase—buyers should carry out pre-auction enquiries. Practical drawbacks include the property's isolated setting, renovation costs, private drainage, council tax band above average and a locally deprived wider area. The large, versatile plot and exceptional privacy offer strong potential value uplift for the right buyer prepared to invest in refurbishment or redevelopment.
