Description

Southern Comfort offers a rare opportunity to acquire an established home and income property set in approximately 1.8 acres.

Alongside the three-bedroom detached bungalow is a substantial collection of garages, a barn, storage units and caravan spaces, with existing short-term lettings providing an income stream. The property also benefits from a certificated licence for up to five touring pitches.

The scale of the outbuildings is a defining feature. A large barn stands alongside an extensive garage building divided into several sections, a separate block of four garages and three storage containers. Together, they provide considerable space for vehicle storage, workshops and other practical uses. For a buyer looking to continue the current lettings, the established arrangements offer a starting point; for an owner with their own requirements, the range of buildings provides flexibility, subject to any necessary consents.

The bungalow is well presented and provides comfortable accommodation at the centre of the property. The kitchen and breakfast room opens into a generous sitting room, creating an easy space for everyday living. The principal bedroom has an en suite shower room, while two further bedrooms share the family bathroom. A separate office is particularly useful for managing a business from home. There is also a utility area with internal access to the garage, and a long loft space for storage.

Southern Comfort has plenty to offer away from the working areas, too. The rear gardens look out over adjoining paddocks, with far-reaching views. An enclosed swimming pool with a concertina cover is served by a separate pool house with changing and shower facilities. A detached games room and bar provide further space for entertaining.

It is the combination that sets Southern Comfort apart: an attractive single-storey home, extensive buildings with current lettings, licensed touring pitches and grounds extending to approximately 1.8 acres. For buyers seeking a property where they can live and work in one place, or continue an existing home and income arrangement, it warrants a closer look.
