3 bedroom cottage for sale

GUIDE PRICE £475,000 - £500,000

Tucked away in the heart of picturesque Cockington Village is this immaculately presented, quality modern 2 bedroom attached cottage. Formally a 3 bedroom cottage, the owner is happy to reinstate it back to its original 3 bedroom layout if required. With fantastic, secluded gardens and timber outbuildings this will appeal to new owners who may have a dog, work from home or enjoy the potential of a large garden set within stunning countryside. With many of the cottages dating back to the 16th century, Cockington oozes history and rural charm with hundreds of acres of gorgeous trails and a charming country pub just a short stroll to the sea and Torquay harbour.

As you enter the gated drive you will see that you have parking for at least 3 cars with an electric vehicle charging point; a timber gate leads you to a private frontage and entrance door. Enter the hallway and into the good-sized lounge with AGA log burning stove; you will love the LVT flooring and glazed oak doors giving it a practical and stylish interior. There are windows to the front, a door out to the garden and French doors open to a lovely, bright dining conservatory. There is a well-equipped kitchen with inset electric hob and oven, fitted dishwasher, stainless steel sink drainer unit, a good range of wall, base and drawer cupboards, breakfast bar and plenty of worksurface. Completing the ground floor is a useful study/utility area with an airing cupboard/gas combi boiler and plumbing for a washing machine; also a downstairs w/c and an understairs storage cupboard

Stairs lead you to the 1st floor where you will find 2 double bedrooms, one with ensuite. This property could easily be made into three bedrooms by reinstating the dividing wall in bedroom 2 and uncovering the existing door. Bedroom 1 has a tasteful ensuite with low level w/c, wash hand basin and shower cubicle. Built in wardrobes are a useful addition and a glazed door leads to a lovely, decked patio area where you can relax in this private sun trap. Bedroom 2 is a great size with windows to the front and rear and a built-in storage cupboard. The main bathroom is well equipped with low level w/c, wash hand basin and panelled bath with shower over.

A real attraction of this property is its extensive and private outside space; there are large gardens that back onto Cockington Country Park with your own gated access, ideal for taking your dog for a walk or accessing the numerous gravelled trails in the protected Country Park. There are steps from the decked patio that take you to a good sized lawned garden with carpets of spring bulbs, a range of shrubbery, small spinney and fruit trees. Double timber gates take you to a further area of private gardens; here you will find a pretty, octagonal summerhouse and good quality garden outbuildings currently used as a workshop and a large store. With good insulation levels to both, the workshop could easily be made into an office or hobby room as it is equipped with power and light.
