4 Bedroom Detached House

This semi-detached grade ll listed three/four-bedroom thatched cottage is situated in the village of Atherington and is presented in lovely order throughout, offering a wonderful blend of character features and modern comfort. The property immediately appeals with its traditional cottage facade and benefits from a private parking space to the front, a particularly useful feature in a village setting.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed into a central hallway with stairs rising to the first floor. There is a delightful lounge, full of character and warmth, featuring a working open fireplace and original bread oven as its focal point. Two windows provide dual aspect light, allowing plenty of natural daylight to fill the room.

The spacious kitchen/diner is another standout feature of the home. Finished to a very good standard, this room offers ample space for both cooking and dining. Both the lounge and kitchen/ diner benefit from electric underfloor heating, topped with attractive slate flooring, which not only complements the character of the cottage but is also practical and easy to maintain.

To the rear of the kitchen, there is access to a useful utility room along with a downstairs shower room, adding to the practicality of the ground floor layout. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a highly versatile additional room, currently used as a fourth bedroom but equally well suited as a home office, hobby room or snug, depending on individual needs.

Upstairs on the first floor, the accommodation continues to impress. The main bedroom is a generously proportioned room offering plenty of space for bedroom furniture. Bedroom two is a further spacious and comfortable room, whilst bedroom three is currently used as a home office but well suited as a single bedroom. The bathroom comprises of a white three-piece suite, with shower over the bath.

From the utility room, a door leads out to the rear courtyard garden, with a small patio area at the top along with a wood store. The courtyard also provides rear pedestrian access plus access to a substantial external storage shed, which offers excellent potential as a workshop, studio or even a separate home office, subject to requirements, making it a particularly flexible and valuable addition to the property.

After passing the Fishleigh Farm shop on the right hand side turn immediately right towards Atherington. Upon entering the village proceed straight across signposted to High Bickington, continue for a short distance and the property will be seen on the right hand side with a for sale board displayed.
