Finished to a high standard, the property provides spacious accommodation that flows naturally throughout, with a characterful interior that enhances the unique charm of the building.

Upstairs, the first floor offers three bedrooms, with the master benefitting from an en suite shower room. The additional bedrooms are well-proportioned, and the family bathroom completes the accommodation on this level. Each room reflects the careful attention to detail that makes this home feel both welcoming and distinctive.

Externally, this property enjoys a stunning private courtyard area surrounded by greenery, offering an oasis-like feel that is both peaceful and secluded. The front and back gardens, courtyards, and all grounds immediately surrounding Breton Cottage are the exclusive private gardens belonging solely to Breton Cottage. The gardens are well maintained and provide the perfect setting for relaxing outdoors or enjoying the countryside backdrop. With parking for three vehicles and access to shared surroundings, this home is part of a small community that values both privacy and neighbourly connection.

Please note: the gardens directly opposite Breton Cottage are completely separate. There is, however, the option to use an additional garden area featuring trees, an owl box, a large lawn, fruit trees, spring flowers, a pond with lilies, and abundant wildlife including ducks, moorhens, and a variety of birdlife. The property can be purchased without this garden, the pond and the nature area.

This converted barn is more than just a home; it offers a lifestyle. Set amongst horse barns and surrounded by open landscapes, it combines rural charm with modern quality—an opportunity to enjoy countryside living in a characterful, well-maintained setting.
