A very pretty semi detached yachtsmans cottage with far reaching rural views and a generous garden situated within this soughtafter harbourside village

Full Description

Greengates is approached via a gravel driveway which provides ample off-street parking towards the front along with access to a garage that is set back and located to the side of the house. The cottage is configured with two comfortable reception rooms with the sitting room enjoying the benefit of a wood burner and an attractive bay window, whilst the dining room overlooks and connects to the rear garden. A contemporary kitchen utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accomodation. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is lovely space, bright and well propotioned with built in wardrobes and a lovely outlook. The second bedroom enjoys a garden view and both bedrooms are served by a family bathroom of good size.

The rear garden is lovely, with mature trees and hedgerows. The garden as it stands is laid mainly to lawn but could be something special if desired. Far reaching countryside views make for a fitting backdrop.
