Description
Christopher’s are proud to present this recently renovated period cottage set close to the heart of this popular South Hams town. The property offers flexible accommodation with an abundance of character laid over 3 floors. The entrance vestibule welcomes you into a large farmhouse style kitchen/diner which has been upgraded to include a range of fitted eye-level and base units, original fireplace housing a log-burner and beamed ceiling. There is also space for a large dining table perfect for friends and family to gather. Beyond the kitchen is a utility/boot room with matching units and enough space to accommodate a washing machine, and even an American-style refrigerator. From here, you can access the garden. An original staircase leads you from the kitchen to the first-floor landing where you are invited into a light and airy sitting room with its feature fireplace and exposed beams. This room has been used as a bedroom in the past before the kitchen was modernised. Also on the first floor is a luxurious family bathroom, recently refurbished to include bath with drencher-head shower above. The original staircase continues to the second floor where there are 2 spacious double bedrooms.
Outside, a private path leads from the rear door to the private garden which has been re-landscaped with a large, paved terrace and barbecue area with level lawn beyond and a large composite deck at the far end of the garden. Adjacent to the path is a large store shed.
This charming home is thought to be around 250 years old, yet has avoided being listed. The extensive renovation has included re-wiring, re-plastering with lime plaster in keeping with the age of the property and replacement of the majority of the windows to hardwood to reflect its history.
