*Watch the Video Tour* With a home office with stunning views, a charming three-bedroom period cottage with large garden and adjoining woodland for lovely winter walks. Ideal for commuting, with quick access to the M5 motorway and Tiverton Parkway station (London Paddington in 2 hours)
This delightful cottage is believed to date back to the 17th century and has been extended in more recent years to add a significant dining room and bedroom space above. An original fireplace with bread oven, ceiling beams, some low doorways and thick stone and cob walls add to the charm of the accommodation, whilst a wood burner in the sitting room ensures a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The shaker style kitchen with an oil-fired Aga enjoys the country views across the Culm Valley and beyond, and other rooms to the side of the property overlook the established gardens. Upstairs, there is a newly fitted modern bathroom, with three double bedrooms and a spacious landing, which is large enough to be used as a study.
The gardens are well-established and lovingly tended, with a beautiful array of climbing shrubs, lawn area, flower and shrub beds. At the top of the garden, there is a superb summerhouse with a patio to one side and a decked veranda with glazed balustrade, from which the enviable views and afternoon sunshine can be fully appreciated. With light, power, heating, full insulation and full double glazing, the summerhouse makes the perfect escape from the main house and is perfectly placed for dinner parties, a home office or studio.
On approach to the cottage, there is ample parking, a garage and carport, other sheds, a greenhouse and a woodstore within the gardens.
There is current planning permission granted to convert the existing outbuilding into a hobby room (Mid Devon District Council - 18/01222/clp).
Blackborough lies on a ridge of the Blackdown Hills, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with woodland walks on the doorstep and opportunities for horse riding and mountain biking. The village has a great sense of community and there are several popular clubs and societies and an active licensed social club in the village hall. Nearby Kentisbeare offers further amenities including a post office, pub, church, village hall and a highly regarded primary school, which feeds into the renowned secondary school, Uffculme School, Ofsted rated 'Outstanding'.
Cullompton and Honiton are a short drive away, both with a full range of services and motorway and A30 access, ideal for commuting. Tiverton Parkway Station (Paddington in c.2 hours) is situated near Junction 27 and Honiton has a mainline railway station with regular services to London Waterloo.
