Description

Pretty as a picture, this gorgeous, THREE BEDROOM DETACHED COTTAGE, is one of Galmpton Villages landmark properties, dating back circa 400 years when it was, we understand, originally two cottages with a thatched roof. In more modern times the cottage has been extended at the rear and a had a garage and driveway added. A rare find indeed, a characterful and charming, good size cottage with an unexpectedly large rear garden, driveway and garage in the sought after village of Galmpton which is located midway between the bustling fishing port of Brixham and sea side town of Paignton. Local shops and sub post office are a short walk away along with highly regarded primary and grammar schools.
The Cottage was a much loved family home, having three bedrooms, W.C. and a study on the first floor, there is plenty of space for a family if required, and on the ground floor a generous living room with two fireplaces and good size kitchen/dining room along with bathroom/w.c. There are many original character features throughout, leaded light windows, beamed ceilings and beautiful fireplaces. As mentioned, Rose Cottage stands in a good size plot with large garden to the rear with two original pig sty's. The driveway providing ample parking is to the side and leads to a detached single garage. Internal viewing is highly recommended. NO CHAIN.

To the front and both sides of the cottage and driveway there are numerous climbing plants, roses and wisteria's, a real colourful show when in bloom!
The rear garden is a real delight, part walled, private and unexpectedly large, it enjoys good privacy and a sunny aspect. It is mainly laid to lawn with various specimen trees and well stocked flowerbeds, a damson and apple tree provide a bounty of fruit, along with a crab apple which is located nearer to the cottage. Ideal for home bakers.
At the end of the garden there is a garden shed and two original piggery's which have been kept in good order throughout the years-ideal stores.
A patio seating area flanks the rear of the cottage with hexagonal SUMMERHOUSE, again surround by beautiful climbing plants and interesting shrubs.
