Read the full agent description
A beautifully renovated three double bedroom detached Georgian cottage, ideally positioned just moments from the waterfront and slipway in Oreston. This charming home offers generous driveway parking, level gardens, two spacious reception rooms, and two bathrooms, alongside PVCu double glazing and gas central heating for modern comfort.
Set a stone’s throw from the picturesque quay, the property has been thoughtfully updated by the current owners, blending period character with contemporary living. Recent improvements include extensive damp-proofing and insulation works, complemented by stylish finishes throughout. The country-style kitchen has solid wood worktops, exposed stone walls.
The cottage benefits from two separate entrances: a charming stable-style door leading directly into the kitchen, and a second entrance porch providing access to a downstairs WC and the main living accommodation. Inside, there are two impressive reception rooms, both featuring multi-fuel stoves. One is an especially spacious triple-aspect room with direct access to the rear courtyard, creating a wonderfully light and inviting space.
Upstairs, the layout offers flexibility and privacy. The principal bedroom is accessed via its own staircase and enjoys use of an adjacent bathroom, creating a private suite-like feel. Two further well-proportioned double bedrooms are accessed via a second staircase and are served by a stylish family shower room.
Externally, the property offers a rear courtyard garden and a larger, enclosed front garden, mainly laid to lawn with attractive planted borders and a timber shed. A pedestrian gate opens onto a wide driveway, providing off-road parking for up to three vehicles.
