Charming lodge with original features set in beautiful countryside.
Two main rooms - probably 8 x 8 feet and 12 x 8 feet - plus tiny kitchen - needs updating!
Bathroom/kitchen requiring modernisation.
Creativity - home - garden - countryside - life in general
It has much potential!!Cx
ReplyDeleteI'd want it for the sink as much as the views.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine the price.
ReplyDeleteIt could be a wonderful home for one, or two very friendly and compatible people.
Perfect for the handyman and woman! Lots of atmosphere. But a little cool with the upcoming winter.
ReplyDeleteCute post.
Oh what potential - I'd love to get my hands on it.
ReplyDeleteOk, its a fixer upper, lol. It does have a lot of charm though. And plenty of fresh country air.
ReplyDeleteA very bijou des res ... I'd have wanted it to!
ReplyDeleteYou would probably get it for a good price! ;)
ReplyDeleteIt would be ok if the sky was always like that but this is the UK remember!!

Hi Jane,
ReplyDeleteI will not be showing this post to my husband. He loves a challenge :)
LOL I thought this place was bad when we came.
ReplyDeleteOh well, I expect the estate agents will describe it as a "fixer-upper" LOL
You know, the way people renovate in your country someone will do it one day!!!... and I bet it will be charming when they do!
ReplyDeleteCheers
Isn't it lovely coming across little gems like that? A girl can dream..............
ReplyDeleteIt'll do won't it?!! Lovely catch up Jane. Hope you are well and enjoying the sun x
ReplyDeleteEven has a belfast sink! Lovely find..........
ReplyDeleteYes, I can definitely see its potential! It could be a very cosy little home with a bit of work!! I always imagine old fallen down cottages as they would have been originally, even if there are only a few bricks left...they do have a special charm and nostalgia.
ReplyDeleteHope you're enjoying this sunny week.

Oh yes! I love it too. Like something out of a fairytale - you will fall asleep there and it will be magically transformed into a palace of a place . . .

Isn't it funny the way that sometimes a ruin will just spark the imagination? That happens with me too. "Potential" indeed!!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteWas it on the walk from Beer to Branscombe? Looks lovely - especially the outside sink!
ReplyDeleteWell, I swear your posts didn't appear on my blog yesterday - you're one I look out for! Now two to enjoy. Love this - now my place doesn't look so bad!
ReplyDeleteDo you write fiction, Jane? The cottage would make a good story starter, something to base a whole series of characters around, perhaps from different historical times. Do you know the series by Norah Lofts which follows the history of a house/inn through the ages? Published 1960s, 1970s.
ReplyDeletewhat a dream house
ReplyDeleteYes, clearl sleeping beauty potential. Are you Sleeping Beauty? Please say yes; a girl needs to dream.
ReplyDeleteMy music teacher,when looking for a house, used to march into estates agents where she lives by the sea in Normandy and ask to see their ramshackle ruins file.
You are not alone.
Love your descriptions.
