"A very rare opportunity to purchase a generous plot in the sought after Montpelier area. Box Cottage was built in 1806 and still retains much of it original features and character. Of particular note here is the circa 140 x 32 rear garden, leading all the down to and fronting Cobourg Road. A Stable building turned garage is accessed here and subject to necessary consents being obtained could have a number of different potentials.
