OWNER INSIGHT

"We purchased this property as an investment, with the area having everything to hand, coastal walks, beaches, pubs and restaurants, travel access to all areas of Devon and so much more we saw it as an ideal holiday let. At the time of our purchase the property was in need of updating but we could certainly see the potential that it offered. We immediately took it back to ‘bares bones’, reconfigured the spaces, replaced the kitchen and bathrooms, rewired, installed a new heating system and then completely redecorated and floor finished were also replaced. Completing our vision and creating a wonderful home. Moving the living space from downstairs to upstairs gives the cottage a new lease of life, giving views across to Portland Bill on a sunny clear day. We have also found this to be a great spot to watch the New Year fireworks. To complete the package the enclosed rear terrace takes in the sun all day long and is a lovely quiet spot to relax."
