About this property
Traditional stone-built terraced cottage
Located on Main Street, Sorbie
In need of renovation and modernisation
Upper-floor extension understood to date from approximately the 1970s
Four first-floor bedrooms
Lounge and separate dining room
Ground-floor shower room
Large rear garden
Open countryside views to the front & from the rear
Scope for further improvement and upgrading
A traditional stone-built terraced cottage situated on Main Street in the village of Sorbie. The property has been extended at upper-floor level, understood to date from approximately the 1970s, and now provides a surprisingly generous level of accommodation extending to approximately 962 sq.ft.
The property is in need of renovation and modernisation throughout, offering scope for a purchaser to upgrade the accommodation to their own specification while retaining the character of the original cottage.
On the ground floor, the accommodation comprises an entrance hallway, lounge, separate dining room, kitchen and shower room. The lounge is positioned to the front of the property and features a fireplace, while the dining room provides an additional reception space. The kitchen is located to the rear and requires upgrading, with access towards the rear of the property.
The first floor is considerably larger than might initially be expected from the cottage-style frontage, having been extended to provide four bedrooms. Several of the bedrooms incorporate built-in storage, while the rear-facing rooms benefit from open views across neighbouring farmland and the surrounding countryside.
Externally, there is a substantial rear garden laid mainly to grass and enclosed in part by traditional stone walling. A timber shed provides useful external storage, and an oil storage tank is positioned close to the rear of the house. The garden enjoys a largely open aspect towards the surrounding rural landscape.
Overall, this is a spacious traditional property requiring a programme of improvement but offering considerable potential, with four-bedroom accommodation, a large rear garden and attractive countryside views.
