Description

Description
In the same ownership for the past 35 years Wood Cottage has been a cherished family home, extended from its 150 year origins, to create an adaptable and individual family property. The accommodation, much of which enjoys open views of the land, riverbank areas and extensive adjoining woodland, leads out into a private garden that borders on farmland and a copse. A generous garage/workshop is attached to one side of the cottage, offering further potential (subject to the necessary consents being obtained). The stables and outbuildings lie opposite the cottage, beside which are productive kitchen gardens that overlook the land and the valley.

The fields are generally level, with its full western border to Silverbridge Lake, a small river that flows into a creek off the River Yealm at Brixton.

Location
The secluded, quiet, and beautiful setting of Wood Cottage, offering remarkable seclusion, is easily accessible from the village of Yealmpton and the A38. The cottage conveniently fronts a little-used country lane, enabling straightforward trailer access of particular importance for equestrian purposes. Extensive mixed woodland shelters the property and the valley.

The nearby comprehensively equipped village of Yealmpton is accessible by way of a country lane or a delightful country walk (mainly public footpaths) of just over a mile, while the A38 is only about 1.5 miles to the north enabling quick access to Derriford Hospital and the business areas to the north side of the city. Exeter and the M5 are also only about 40 minutes (35 miles) distant. Local shops are to be found in Yealmpton, Plympton (about 2.5 miles), and Ivybridge (Tesco Lee Mill about 4 miles).

The waterfront areas of Newton Ferrers and Plymouth are within easy reach, providing excellent facilities for sailing enthusiasts. The City of Plymouth provides comprehensive retail facilities, an historic waterfront, the Hoe and the renowned Royal William Yard, thriving large University, Theatre Royal, major regional hospital, and many other facilities.
