About this property

Overview

This beautiful cottage is located in the peaceful village of Botriver, offering an ideal retreat for individuals or couples seeking either a weekend getaway or a tranquil permanent residence.

The Main Home

The gardens are lush, lovingly maintained and established, with the back garden recently remanaged to create a perfect backdrop for relaxation and spending time outdoors. The spacious back porch is the perfect space to comfortably unwind and soak in the surrounding natural beauty.

Additional Spaces

Two versatile and adaptable areas have been thoughtfully designed in the back garden:

  • Office space — converted into a cozy office, complete with kitchenette, bathroom, toilet, and warm outdoor shower, ideal for remote work
  • Multi-purpose studio — currently used as a yoga studio, can easily be repurposed to suit your needs, whether as an art space, guest room, or additional storage

This charming and secure cottage provides everything needed for comfortable living.
