Description
Set in a picturesque village location, Thistle Cottage is a beautifully presented stone-built property that perfectly blends period character with stylish contemporary finishes. Fully renovated throughout, the cottage is in excellent condition and features sociable open-plan living spaces alongside two bright and airy bedrooms, both enjoying attractive views over the village. Previously operated successfully as both a holiday let and a long-term rental, the property presents a fantastic investment opportunity. Alternatively, it would make an ideal low-maintenance permanent home, offering comfort, charm, and convenience in equal measure. On entering the cottage, you're immediately drawn to the exposed stone feature wall - a striking focal point that enhances the character of the main living space. Dual-aspect windows, including a charming window seat at the rear, fill the room with natural light and offer views towards the garden. The living area flows seamlessly into a modern, well-appointed kitchen with ample space for everyday dining. A sleek, contemporary shower room completes the ground floor layout. Upstairs, the two bedrooms are restful rooms, filled with light and enjoying pleasant village outlooks. To the rear, a shared courtyard leads to private steps that access a fully enclosed lawned garden - a peaceful and secluded spot, ideal for relaxation or entertaining. A sunny decked seating area adds to the appeal, with scope for further landscaping if desired.
