SITUATION

This is a fantastic and extremely rare opportunity to purchase a superbly restored and extended village cottage which has been meticulously renovated and maintained on a virtually no expense spared basis. The property is south facing and benefits from a lot of natural light in all the principal rooms. The cottage is full of charm and character with many features throughout all of which have been very skilfully blended with a lovely modern finish. Of particular note is the excellent double sided brick faced fireplace in the sitting room and dining room, a most attractive open staircase rising from the dining area to the first floor, excellent slate style flag floor in the kitchen and dining area, the natural wood doors and architraves and skirtings, and the fabulous Shaker style cream fronted kitchen unit fitments with wooden worktops. On the first floor there are exceptional uninterrupted rural views out to the Haldon Hills from all bedrooms and the master bedroom with its balcony is a delight. The house also has underfloor heating with individual room thermostats, there are therefore no radiators thus freeing up lots of extra wall space.

Externally the excellent features continue and include an excellent gravelled and concreted parking area at the rear where up to five cars can be parked together with a further parking area at the front for two, an excellent level lawned garden and the position with the views over the adjoining fields at the side and across to hills and fields from the front is also fantastic. The property is extremely well located on the rural edge of favoured Exminster where there are a good range of local amenities including shops, post office, health centre and primary school together with regular public transport. Nearby there are some wonderful countryside walks, the canal towpath and river Exe are also conveniently nearby which are popular for walking and cycle rides. The cathedral city of Exeter is just 4 miles away and offers a host of additional facilities including schools, shops, banks and sporting amenities, etc.

DIRECTIONS

Travelling from Exeter drive through the village of Exminster turning right into Deepway Lane just before the parade of shops. Continue for approximately 1/2 mile and the property to be sold can easily be seen on the right hand side.
