Mizpah, 4 Quayfield Road is a delightful and charming end terraced character cottage situated in a sought after location just 100 yards from the picturesque working harbour. Residential properties within this location seldom come to the market and this cottage represents a truly rare opportunity. There are damp proofing and modernisation works required to the property.
The property is perfect as a permanent home or bolt hole/second home and has, in the past, been used as a very successful holiday letting cottage as the proximity to Ilfracombe harbour and the sea front is an ideal location for that type of use. Marsdens Devon Cottages have suggested year one earnings from holiday letting of circa £23,500 and year to rising to around £30,000.
The grade II listed cottage is believed to have been built in the 18th century and has characterful 3 storey accommodation. Many of the rooms have original beams made from old ships timbers and the panelling in several of the rooms is also from old ships cabins. The property benefits from gas central heating.
An entrance lobby with terracotta quarry tiled flooring opens into a 15' x 11' kitchen/dining area which has a range of fitted hand built units with an integrated sink, oven and hob. The terracotta tiled floor and the original beamed ceiling provide a cosy characterful feel. Leading from the dining area is a utility area/scullery which has a range of fitted work surfaces with plumbing for an automatic washing machine and dishwasher; this is a really useful practical space.
On the first floor there is a 15' lounge with a wooden panelled wall formed from timbers thought to have originated from an old ship. There is an attractive fireplace with stripped pine surround and mantle that provides a focal point to the room. Open views from the window can be enjoyed towards Hillsborough. There is a good sized bathroom with a white suite including a panelled bath with shower attachment and shower screen over, a low level wc and hand basin.
Stairs lead up to the second floor where there are 2 bedrooms, both of which enjoy an open outlook towards Hillsborough. There is a rear hallway/dressing room which has a range of fitted storage cupboards and an airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder with the gas fired boiler for the central heating and hot water being adjacent. A door at the side leads out onto Rupertswood Lane.
Outside, at the front of the property there is a small gravelled sitting area with hydrangea shrubs.
