A substantial stone built period house.

Description

Believed to date from the 1840’s, Cotland House is an attractive detached stone built property which enjoys an outlook over its pretty south facing garden to the rear. The property is believed to have been extended in 1888 and many period features remain such as high ceilings, large sash windows, fireplaces and exposed beams.

The property offers light and spacious accommodation arranged over three floors. On the ground floor is an entrance lobby, dining room and sitting room, both with fireplaces. Double doors from the dining room lead to a generous family kitchen/breakfast room. There is a lobby and cloakroom to the rear. The main entrance leads into the kitchen/breakfast room.

The bedroom accommodation is set out over two floors with a wonderful principal bedroom with Japanese-inspired en suite bathroom and dressing room and further en suite bedroom on the first floor. There are two further bedrooms, both with en suite bathrooms and fitted wardrobes, on the second floor.

Outside there is off street parking, a detached single garage and a stone built office with an attached utility room. The well-maintained gardens are laid to lawn with well-stocked borders and specimen trees. A paved terrace lies along the rear elevation looking across the garden and a very attractive fish pond. At the end of the garden is a decked area with a gazebo which is perfect for al fresco dining.

Beyond the rear boundary a right of way exists over a neighbouring track to provide additional vehicular access.

Cotland House has previously been a successful Bed & Breakfast.
