Rose Cottage is a wonderful 18th century cottage located in Higher Batson. This highly sought after Hamlet is positioned at the head of Batson Creek and on the outskirts on Salcombe offering a scenic walk or a short drive into the renowned neighbouring town.

Last in a row of historic Grade II Listed properties, Rose Cottage occupies a secluded position with pretty private gardens and glorious views across the hills and countryside.

Immaculately presented throughout Rose Cottage offers both historic period features and many modern upgrades. The property was fully renovated in recent years with the majority of the internal space and the roof being replaced. The cottage is arranged over two floors with rear access to the ground floor which features a large reception room running the width of the property benefitting from bay windows and window seats, a wood burner, ceiling beams and space for dining. Behind is a generous separate kitchen, central entrance hall and utility room with downstairs WC. An unusual and appealing curved staircase leads to the upper floor and three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one being en-suite to the main bedroom.

A gated driveway is to one side of the property offering good parking and there is a rear patio from which to enjoy the view. Below this is a small garden store room and the garden itself sloping gently away from the cottage with established trees and shrubs to the borders and central tiered lawns.
