DESCRIPTION
A former mill manager's house dating to around 1895, Square Cottage is a one and a half storey detached property of shuttered concrete construction under a pitched timber framed slate covered roof with concrete block porch extension believed to have been added in the 1970’s. The conservatory, which was added in around 2003, enjoys sweeping views of the extensive gardens.
The ground floor provides a comfortable lounge, conservatory, large kitchen, shower room with WC and
a useful boot/utility room which also houses the wall mounted LPG gas fired boiler and water supply filtration system in addition to a Belfast sink. The kitchen is well equipped with both an LPG gas fired range AGA and additional gas cooker as well as space for a dining table. The conservatory offers direct access to the gardens and is accessible from the spacious living room, which also has a wood-burning stove for extra space heating. The windows are double glazed with skylight window in the first floor bathroom.
The stairs in the hallway lead to the first floor which provides a family bathroom and four bedrooms with coombed ceilings, one of which is presently used as a study. All of the bedrooms enjoy north and south-facing windows.
Square Cottage may benefit from a programme of decorative improvements and upgrades to bring the property up to modern standards and create a bright and welcoming family home or highland retreat.
OUTSIDE
Externally there is a very attractive and mature enclosed garden extending to approximately 1.5 acres which may suit a garden enthusiast or provide ample space for entertaining. The garden is partially laid to lawn with a range of shrubs and herbaceous borders providing a variety of colour throughout the year and benefits from a kitchen garden with greenhouse, large pond and timber framed south facing summer house, with the amenity woodlands to the boundaries providing a degree of privacy.
There is also a substantial detached timber garage clad in profile metal to the west of the property. This space could easily be reconfigured as a workshop, home office or studio, subject to securing the requisite planning permission thereon. Or simply be used as an ideal store for garden tools/machinery or to house outdoor furniture over winter and assorted larger recreational gear such as bikes, kayaks etc.
To the front of the property there are wooden gates at the entrance and a large parking area adjacent to the garage lined in stone chippings.
