- Self-contained annexe wing with kitchenette and shower room
- Large garage/workshop with car pit; accessed over rear lawn
- Expansive rear garden and open countryside, sea and Criffel views

- Large overall size (approx 3,423 sq ft) with attic/storage potential
Set on a generous plot in a quiet hamlet, The Cottage is a characterful detached home with expansive countryside and Solway Coast views. The main house retains traditional features — exposed beams, a wood-burning stove and an Aga-style range — giving a warm, rustic feel. Three double bedrooms, multiple reception rooms and attic spaces offer flexible living and significant square footage for family life or a buyer seeking space to downsize without compromising room sizes.
A self-contained wing with its own entrance, shower room and kitchenette has previously been used as an annexe and would suit guest accommodation, home working or short-term rental income. A substantial garage/workshop (with car pit) and outbuildings add practical value for hobbyists, tradespeople or storage, though vehicle access requires crossing the lawn at the rear.
Buyers should note practical constraints: the property lies in a high flood-risk zone and has slow broadband and average mobile signal — important for remote working. Heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, and several rooms show dated finishes and low ceilings in parts; the house will suit a purchaser willing to invest in updating and ongoing maintenance.
This is a rare rural package for those seeking privacy, views and flexibility: a spacious period cottage with annexe potential and workshop facilities, best suited to buyers prepared for countryside living and the practicalities of a remote setting.
