Torre, Washford, TA23

Idyllic detached 3/4 bedroom cottage with additional ensuite bedroom in separate cabin currently used as lucrative holiday let. Set in approx. 1 acre of grounds with a huge range of outbuildings including 725 sq. ft. barn, large studio and home office. Rock Cottage offers all the space and facilities to live a sustainable lifestyle.

Benefitting from double glazing and oil fired central heating, the accommodation comprises, on the ground floor - entrance hall, sitting room with inglenook fireplace, second reception room/bedroom 4, kitchen/dining room and utility. On the first floor there are 3 good sized bedrooms (one with ensuite WC) and an impressive family bathroom.

Externally there is off road parking to the front of the property with access to the former garage which has now been converted into a studio with light and power. The first floor is currently undeveloped but could be converted (subject to planning). Steps from the parking lead to the front of the property. The garden surrounds the property and is a gardeners delight with large vegetable plot, chicken run, areas of lawn, fruit trees and an abundance of herbaceous shrubs. There are also various timber sheds and stone stores and 3 greenhouses. Within the grounds there is a delightful cabin, known as 'Rock Shack', which has been renovated and is currently running as a lucrative Air B&B business. Rock Shack has been enclosed by fencing to provide separation from the main house and also has a separate vehicular access to the rear where a further large area of parking can be found, ideal for camper/caravan parking etc. A track from here leads to the barn, previously used for furniture restoration but with a huge amount of potential for a variety of uses. The final outbuilding lies to the rear of the house and is used as a home office with ample natural light and electricity. The whole plot is thought to extend to approximately 1 acre.
