We are delighted to bring to market this wonderful character cottage, positioned centrally within a picturesque Devonshire village. This period property has been sympathetically renovated over recent years, to provide a high specification of living accommodation, all whilst retaining its wealth of historical charm.

Continuing through to the living room, which is by far the true heart of the home. The traditional features have been embraced from the latch doors to the impressive lintels, this room revolves around the centrally located inglenook fireplace which boasts a woodburner and original clome oven.

To the rear of the cottage, you will find an efficiently designed cloakroom and utility room, a convenient practicality that provides further space for those much-needed household appliances. The lower-level hallway is a particularly beautiful area of this property, with very meaningful stained glass featuring, high ceilings and a wealth of natural light. Bedroom three can be found here also, benefiting from a Velux window and plentiful floorspace.

The sweeping central staircase brings you to the first floor, with offerings of a wonderful family bathroom and two comfortable double bedrooms. The master suite benefits from its own designated shower room.
