The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
Dating back to the late 18th Century, 1 Swelle Cottages is a characterful home that has been maintained in good decorative order while retaining features that reflect its period origins. The accommodation offers a comfortable balance of welcoming living spaces, practical family areas and flexible additional accommodation within the separate cabin.
The living room has tiled flooring and a feature fireplace housing a woodburning stove, creating an inviting setting for everyday relaxation. A separate snug provides a second comfortable retreat, with flagstone flooring and its own fireplace and woodburning stove adding further character. The dining room continues the traditional feel with brick flooring and provides a dedicated space for meals and entertaining.
The kitchen introduces a more contemporary finish, with a range of base and wall mounted units, timber worktops, an integral dishwasher and double oven with extractor. There is also space for an American style fridge freezer. A generous ground floor bathroom includes a roll top bath, walk in shower, wash basin with vanity storage and WC, together with a useful utility cupboard providing space for a washing machine and tumble drier.
Upstairs are three double bedrooms, an office space and a separate shower room, giving the first floor useful flexibility for family life and home working.
Outside, the main garden runs alongside the cottage and combines a spacious lawn with established planted borders and a generous raised deck positioned to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. A timber storage shed provides additional practicality.
Set privately behind a gated fence, The Cabin adds considerable versatility. This independent one bedroom annexe includes an open plan living and kitchen area with woodburning stove, a double bedroom and modern shower room. Its own raised decking enjoys coastal views, while a private gravel courtyard and ample off road parking complete this valuable additional space.
