Main Street, Barton St. David, TA11 6BZ

Rosewood Cottage is a charming detached period cottage, occupying a secluded setting within gardens and grounds extending to approximately one acre.

The property offers four good bedrooms and characterful accommodation arranged over two floors, complemented by a substantial collection of traditional stone barns and outbuildings.

The cottage itself would benefit from updating, while the extensive barns offer considerable potential for a variety of future uses or development, subject to all necessary consents and satisfying any relevant conditions.

Accommodation The front entrance door opens into the hall, where stairs rise to the first floor and a door on the left leads into the sitting room.

This characterful room has a feature fireplace housing a wood burning stove, dual aspect windows and a part glazed door opening onto the side terrace.

From the hall, an opening leads into an inner hall where there is a former stone fireplace and doors to the kitchen and dining room.

The dining room retains exposed beams and a further feature fireplace housing a multi fuel stove, together with parquet flooring and two windows to the front.

A further door from the dining room opens into the study, which again features a former fireplace, along with a range of built in cupboards.

From here, a wooden door leads into an inner lobby, with a cloakroom on the left and a heavy wooden door continuing into the utility room.

The utility provides space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with the gas fired central heating boiler, while a further door opens to the front.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall, base and drawer units with a combination of wooden and tiled work surfaces.

There is space and plumbing for an electric cooker and dishwasher, together with a walk in pantry, rear facing window and a door leading into the garage.

On the first floor, the landing includes a useful storage cupboard with matching wooden doors opening to four good bedrooms.

Bedrooms two and three both enjoy front facing aspects, with bedroom two also having a built in cupboard over the stairs, while bedroom four has a window to the side.

The principal bedroom has two windows to the front, exposed wooden beams and built in eaves storage.

A door opens into an adjoining dressing room, where there is a large walk in wardrobe and airing cupboard, with a further door leading into the ensuite shower room.

A particularly notable feature of Rosewood Cottage is the extensive collection of traditional stone barns arranged around the property.

Barn One is approached from a door opposite the cottage, initially opening into a single storey lean to section.

A door on the left leads into a large stone garage, also forming part of the lean to, with a further opening continuing into the substantial main section of the barn.

This has a flagstone floor, heavy wooden door and wooden shutters to the front, together with its own gas fired central heating boiler.

Stairs rise to the first floor, where the accommodation has been divided into three areas, each having radiators, windows with shutters and exposed wooden beams.

A sink is also provided within one of these areas.

Barn Two comprises a substantial single storey stone barn with exposed wooden beams, window openings overlooking the courtyard and a further entrance door at one end.

Adjoining this are two open barns, supported by stone pillars and open to the eaves, again displaying exposed wooden beams. Both Barn One and Barn Two have the benefit of power and light.

Adjoining Barn Two is Barn Three, another substantial stone building with a wide opening to the rear and a heavy wooden entrance door to the front.

Internally, the barn has a flagstone floor and a full height ceiling, potentially providing scope for the creation of a first floor or alternative uses, subject to all necessary consents.

Finally, there is a smaller detached stone building, referred to as Barn Four, positioned towards the far end of the yard.

Outside Outside, Rosewood Cottage is approached through a wooden gate onto a driveway providing parking for several vehicles and leading to the single stone garage, which has a metal up and over door, power and light.

Paths extend into the more formal areas of garden, which are interspersed with a variety of mature shrubs, plants and trees, providing a good degree of seclusion before opening onto an attractive lawn enjoying plenty of sunlight.

An archway leads into the productive garden, where there is a fruit cage currently stocked with a variety of berries, together with raised beds, fruit trees, compost bins and a greenhouse.

Stone steps lead from the formal garden around to the rear of the cottage, where pedestrian access can also be gained to Barn One.

Between Barns One and Three, a five bar wooden gate opens onto a second driveway, providing an additional vehicular entrance into the property.

This continues past the first of the open stone barns forming part of Barn Two and extends towards the far end of the grounds, before turning into a large concrete yard.

From here there is access to the single storey section of Barn Two, the second open barn and the detached Barn Four.

Together, the gardens, grounds, barns and two separate vehicular approaches provide an unusual degree of space and flexibility, all set within approximately one acre.
