4 bedroom detached house for sale

Hill Crest, dating back to the 1700's, formally two Blacksmiths cottages and forge, is now a spacious and characterful four bedroom cottage with the most outstanding open views to the Avon Valley. Offering huge potential as a family home, and with it previously being a thriving B & B, there is also commercial potential (STPP).

Description - Hill Crest & Old Forge Cottage are two former Blacksmiths cottages dating back to the 1700's and have now been sympathetically joined together to form one residence.
