3 bedroom terraced house

This beautifully presented early 19th century grade II listed cottage sits at the very heart of the Exe Valley village of Silverton, in the shadow of St Mary’s Church and with the excellent village amenities within walking distance, including the village shop and post office just across the road.

THE LAYOUT

A shared covered passageway provides side access through to the back garden and it’s along here where you also find the front door, meaning you don’t enter directly off the public pavement. Once inside the property, you see the sitting room to the right, complete with woodburner and in built shelving, providing a cosy and characterful main living space. To the left, the kitchen offers the room for a table, with oak top worktops and a small AGA ensuring a rural property feel. The recently carpeted stairs lead from the kitchen, on to the three bedrooms, which are accompanied by a modern and spacious bathroom.

OUTSIDE

Along the shared passageway, the side gate takes you into the split level garden. The lower level is gravelled to provide a low maintenance area, and this also offers an opportunity to extend out from the kitchen, like many of the neighbouring properties have done. Steps up from here open to a lawn with surrounding flower beds — a real sun trap with its open south aspect.

THE VILLAGE

Silverton is located on the commuter friendly side of Exeter—as well as being handily located for access to Exeter airport and both Exeter St. David's and Tiverton Parkway train stations—and is thought to be one of the oldest villages in Devon. It continues to be an extremely sought after village as it provides the fantastic combination of the 'village lifestyle' whilst also being well connected to the city of Exeter. Amenities in the village itself are exceptional, with a brilliant Doctor's surgery, convenience store, post office, primary school and two pubs.
