2 Bed Detached House For Sale

A delightful Grade II listed detached cottage full of character, set in a picturesque village location with generous gardens. Beautifully presented and in excellent decorative order throughout, the property also offers ample private parking and a versatile selection of outbuildings, all set within approximately 0.18 acres.

Offering comfortable two-bedroom accommodation, the cottage retains many original features such as an inglenook-style fireplace with a bread oven, exposed beams, and window seats. The sitting room and dining room lead into a spacious, double-aspect kitchen/breakfast room, recently updated with quality fitted units, stone-tiled splashbacks, and a Rangemaster cooker. A charming garden room at the rear opens to the gardens with a well-appointed downstairs shower room accesed from this room.

Upstairs, both double bedrooms benefit from large en-suite bathrooms and an additional room which could serve as a useful home office or craft room.

To the front of the cottage lies a charming, enclosed cottage-style garden with low walls topped by iron railings. A front gate opens to a stone-paved pathway, flanked by gravelled areas and raised, well-stocked flower and shrub beds.

To the side, a gravelled area adjoining the road leads to a private driveway with parking for three cars and access to a detached garage with an electric up-and-over door. Behind the garage is a log store with double-glazed patio doors and a useful workshop.

A pedestrian gate from the driveway opens into a spacious paved patio, creating a sheltered courtyard feel at the rear of the cottage. Adjacent to this area is a versatile range of outbuildings, including a utility room with a fitted work surface and a greenhouse/potting shed featuring double doors with side panels. This outbuilding range may offer potential for alternative uses, subject to any necessary planning consent.

The rear patio overlooks attractive, well-maintained gardens divided into two principal sections. The upper garden is laid to lawn with mature shrub and tree borders, offering privacy and seclusion. A gate and laurel-covered archway lead to the lower garden with paved pathways, a large raised bed, fruit trees and a small garden shed. A private lawned seating area completes this peaceful space.
From South Molton proceed south out of the town on the B3226 and stay on this road for approximately 4½ miles before taking the right turn signposted to Chittlehamholt. Proceed up the hill and at the 'T' junction, turn left. Drive towards the village and the property will be found just after the "Exeter Inn" on the left hand side.
