Forda is a fantastic spot for anyone wanting to be out of the hussle and bustle of the village centre, yet just a short walk to the village.
The property itself sits in an elevated position giving wonderful views over the surrounding countryside along with the garden being a real sun trap. Upon reaching the property from the road is a triple garden/workshop with additional parking in front. This may suit a purchase to look at converting into annexe accommodation subject to the necessary relevant planning permissions.
The original part of the property itself is believed to date back circa 400 years and has a wealth of character features, this is then blended with the modern addition to the property which is believed to date back 40 years. The overall accommodation and garage size is around 200 Sqm.
There are 3 entrances to the house with the main front door giving access into an entrance hall leading through to the open plan kitchen/breakfast room. This can also be accessed from the huge conservatory which looks out over the well tendered gardens and rolling hills beyond. From the kitchen breakfast room there is a door leading into a bedroom/study, there is also access into a utility area with downstairs wc beyond. The accommodation on the ground floor is completed with a cosy sitting room.
Moving up to the first floor is the landing with doors leading off. The master bedroom is a fantastic size with en-suite and has double doors leading out to the side garden. There are 4 further bedrooms on this floor with both bathroom and shower room. The hallway works well being able to simply close off 2 bedrooms and the shower room as annexe accommodation. This area is also accessible without going through the main accommodation via a pathway that wraps around the side of the house raising up to the first floor with then access in.
'Forda Hill Cottage' is a perfect property for someone wanting a lifestyle change in a quiet location on the edge of this desirable village and beach on your doorstep.
