Description
Detached Victorian Coach House forming 2 and 1 bedroom cottages. No onward chain. Quiet rural hamlet close to Holyford Woods.
Situation - Set within a small hamlet along a quiet no through road for vehicles, just under a mile from the centre of Colyford, this appealing Victorian former coach house is currently arranged as two cottages and offers a flexible opportunity for income/ multi-generational living. Reconfiguration may also be an option, subject to any necessary consents within the curtilage of a grade II listed building.
