Property description

This charming Grade II listed stone cottage is situated on a quiet lane in the popular village of Brighstone. Tucked away amongst its own gardens, Margarets Cottage dates back to the 1860’s and within its historic past it is believed to have been the policeman’s cottage and it is understood that one of the rooms would have been used as the dungeon! Set within its own lawned gardens the property is entered via a stone step leading to a tiled porch area. Downstairs is a lounge and dining room both featuring working open fireplaces and from the lounge, via the lobby you can enter both the kitchen and the bathroom. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, one benefitting from built in wardrobes, and a good-sized single bedroom. The front of the property benefits from UPVC double glazing whilst the rear still has the original sash windows. This quaint cottage would benefit from some modernisation, and the additional stone outbuildings comprising a storage area, stable and workshop could offer the opportunity to extend the property (subject to the necessary planning requirements) to provide additional living accommodation if required.
We believe early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate all that this charming CHAIN FREE cottage has to offer.
