Description

Bay View Cottage is a charming detached three/four-bedroom property situated in a picturesque setting on Glen Road, Colby, enjoying stunning countryside and sea views. Offered together with approximately 8 acres of land situated directly opposite the property, this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful family home with substantial acreage in the south of the Island. The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance conservatory, flooding the home with natural light. Adjoining is a versatile reception room, accessed from both the main hallway and conservatory via bi-fold doors. This room could equally serve as a fourth bedroom, benefiting from a nearby WC and independent rear access. The spacious kitchen/dining room forms the heart of the home, featuring an attractive fireplace, an excellent range of wall and base units and ample space for a large dining table. Double doors lead through to the inviting living room, positioned at the front of the property to take full advantage of the wonderful views across the adjoining fields towards the sea. A generously sized utility room provides further practicality and valuable storage. To the first floor are three excellent double bedrooms, each enjoying an abundance of natural light, attractive vaulted ceilings and delightful sea views. The principal bedroom benefits from a modern en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom. The impressive vaulted landing, complete with two Velux skylights, further enhances the bright and spacious feel of the accommodation. Externally, the front of the property is fully paved, providing generous off-road parking alongside attractive seating areas, ideal for relaxing and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
