3 bedroom cottage

Balnamoon Cottage is a delightful traditional dwelling with a substantial stone-built L-shaped steading, located in a peaceful and very private position near Grange. Likely to date from the early 1900s, the house is constructed from stone under a pitched slate roof and provides accommodation over two levels.

The cottage requires modernisation; however, it offers a blank canvas from which any new owner can create a desirable rural home. On the ground floor, a sunroom opens into the hallway, from where doors lead to a living room to the right and a dining room to the left. A hallway opens to a practical store room/pantry, rear vestibule, and utility. A family bathroom is located off the hallway, whilst a kitchen and an additional sitting room (currently used as a ground floor bedroom) complete the ground floor accommodation. On the first floor are two double bedrooms, a smaller single room, a WC, a store and the former maid’s room. The house is double-glazed and is heated using electric wall-mounted heaters. The cottage has a mains electricity and water supply with a septic tank (installed circa 2020).

Externally to the rear of the house lies an attractive and substantial stone steading with various stores and byres. Recent significant groundworks and tree surgery have been undertaken, including drainage ditches and constructing a hardcore courtyard; the steading offers tremendous potential for further development (subject to obtaining all necessary consents). The entire property extends to about 1.2 ha / 3 acres and includes a mature garden, various mature trees and two small paddocks offering the potential to those with smallholding interests.
