This charming slate-roofed Victorian stone cottage is just waiting for the right person to turn it into an exceptional home.
Wilrosa is situated in a conservation area near the centre of the quiet village of Ashreigney in Devon and overlooks open farmland to the front and rear.
The property is of traditional stone construction under a slate roof with a stone lean to on one side encompassing the garage.
Internally the property is arranged over two floors and offers spacious and well laid out three-bedroom accommodation including a kitchen, utility room, a separate sitting room and dining room and a first floor bathroom.
Wilrosa is in need of complete renovation and modernisation including re-plumbing, re-wiring, damp and timber treatment, as well as the replacement of the kitchen and bathroom suites.
Outside and to the front of the house is a small garden, while at the side there is an attached garage with a pedestrian door leading out to a rear courtyard allowing access to the detached stone storage barn/workshop or possible home office.
