Welcome to Church Cottage, a truly unique and captivating property that exudes character and charm whilst benefitting from being fully modernised by the current owners. The house was derelict and slated for demolition in the 1950's when a couple on a sailing boat missed the outgoing tide and had to spend the night in Halstow Creek. They climbed into the building through the undergrowth and having seen the view, they decided to buy and restore the house. The house is originally from 1661 but is not listed.
The outbuilding previously used by artists up until 2012 offers excellent potential for further commercial uses or subject to planning permission being converted to annex/holiday let accommodation. The property boasts accommodation over three floors and the renovation works have resulted in a characterful family home in keeping with its heritage. The ground floor features a welcoming kitchen/breakfast room that seamlessly connects to the dining room, perfect for family meals or entertaining guests. A generously sized reception room provides ample living space, complemented by a bright conservatory that overlooks the garden. Additional conveniences include a boot room and a ground-floor WC. Upstairs, the first floor hosts the master bedroom with its own ensuite shower room, alongside two more well-proportioned bedrooms that share a family bathroom. The second floor adds further flexibility with two additional double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an ensuite WC. This delightful home is ideal for those seeking both space and comfort in a picturesque setting. Church Cottage is set on a generous 1.37-acre plot, surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and accessible via two separate driveways. The property also includes shared ownership of Moss’s Wharf, offering the added benefit of boat mooring. Ample parking is available at the front and within the grounds.
