House For Sale £450,000
An attractive Grade II listed thatched cottage nestled in the heart of the stunning Dartmoor National Park. On the outskirts of the pretty rural hamlet of Ponsworthy, the property benefits from its stunning moorland surroundings and on the doorstep of some of its delightful walks. EPC Band: E.
Situation - The property is situated in the idyllic village of Ponsworthy, and offers a magnificent base to enjoy rural peace and tranquility. The cottage is one of a collection of period properties in Ponsworthy, near the Webburn River, nestled in the heart of Dartmoor National Park. Popular villages nearby are Poundsgate and Widecombe-in-the-Moor, the latter having a range of amenities to include two well regarded public houses, several gift shops, a small convenient store with postal counter, and St Pancras Church.
Ponsworthy is only a short drive from the A38 Devon Expressway with it's links to Exeter and Plymouth and the larger motorway network. It is also within an hour's drive to some of South Devon's finest beaches.
Description - Splash Cottage is one of the more iconic cottages within the Dartmoor National park. Nestled beside the Two Moors Way footpath, a 116-mile path connecting both of Devon's beautiful coastlines, plus its picturesque sylvan setting beside a ford, of which its stream is a tributary to the Webburn river, perfectly encapsulates the idyllic moorland setting.
Having been sympathetically modernised by the current owners, the 19th century property now offers a fine opportunity for private moorland retreat or as an investment purchase having been run recently as a highly successful holiday let.
Accommodation - The ground floor offers suitable accommodation including a cosy reception space currently configured as a sitting/dining room. A beautiful exposed stone wall with a wood burner set within a fireplace with remains of a former bread oven to the side creates an excellent centre point for the room with exposed beams overhead and a south facing window.
To the rear of the first floor is the properties kitchen, with a range of traditional style white units with wooden worktops and integral appliances some of which to note include an electric oven, dishwasher and a fridge/freezer. In addition, the bathroom is situated to the rear of the property and comprises a shower over bath, wash basin and WC. Separately there is a utility room with a rear door to the garden plus space for a washing machine.
The first floor offers the properties two double bedrooms with windows on the properties on the southern aspect with the master bedroom featuring ample space for storage.
