House For Sale £182,500
Pretty two-bedroom end-terraced cottage situated in a quiet location on the fringe of Okehampton town in a row of terraced cottages that border the West Okement river and sit below the old castle ruins. From the property it is a level walk to town centre and a wide range of amenities including supermarkets, pharmacy, dentistry, doctors, retail outlets along with leisure facilities as well as primary and secondary schooling. One can also walk a short distance to the end of the cottages where there is a bridge over the river leading to walks directly to the golf club and open moorland beyond.
The property itself has been with the current owner for over 30 years and has been exceptionally well maintained, with heritage style double glazed windows, gas fire central heating and modern kitchen. Much of the original charm and character has been retained as the property has been sympathetically modernised over recent years. To the ground floor is a sitting room, further kitchen/breakfast room and lean-to garden extension to the rear. On the first floor are two bedrooms and a large family bathroom.
Outside, there is an enclosed courtyard garden to the rear with the former outside WC now being used as a useful garden store. To the front of the property is vehicular access and parking as well as a generous front garden which enjoys south/westerly aspect with a vegetable garden at the far end.
A number of the neighbouring cottages have been extended to provide additional accommodation giving the potential for future expansion if desired, subject to planning permission. These properties rarely come to market and generally prove highly desirable, so call early to register your interest.
