26 Lower Street is located off street in a quiet spot with super views from the garden across the Teign Valley to the high moor. The cottage is stone built and fully gas centrally heated and has double glazed windows throughout.

Upstairs is a small landing, shower room and two bedrooms. The garden is over 18 metres long with a west facing side boundary for afternoon and evening sun and views to the high moor. The cottage has all mains services and Fowlers strongly recommend viewing.
Situation
26 Lower Street is located down a short alleyway and is in an off-street setting at the end of a terrace of three. The land adjacent to the cottage drops away a bit and affords the cottage some superb views across the Teign Valley to the moor from its garden over the southwest facing boundary wall. The bustling town square is only a short walk away where there is a wide variety of day to day and specialist shops, four pubs, cafes and restaurant. Chagford has a Parish church, Roman Catholic church and chapel, a Primary school, pre-school and Montessori, a library and surgeries for doctor, dentist and vet. The A30 dual carriageway is about 5 miles away and Exeter is approximately 20 miles.

Go through the alleyway and as you come out at the other end turn left and walk to No.26 which is at the far end of the terrace.
Entrance
Having entered the garden the front door is to the left and leads into the living room.
Living room
A slate floored room with a large, part exposed granite fireplace with an arched lintel, slate hearth and fitted wood burning stove with lined flue. A window seat is set beneath a vented upvc double glazed window that looks out to the garden and to either side of the fireplace there are recesses that can be used for shelving. There are four LED downlighters, a double panel radiator, a wall mounted central heating control box, concealed meters and circuit breaker box and a doorway to the inner hall.
Inner hallway
Slate floored, timber clad ceiling, one LED downlighter, understairs storage, fitted coat hooks, stairs to the first floor and a doorway to the kitchen.
Kitchen
The kitchen has a terracotta style ceramic floor and a range of base and wall cabinets with roll top work surfaces. There are three LED downlighters, a single drainer stainless steel sink, space for a slim fridge, an automatic washing machine and a gas cooker. A Vent Axia electric fan is installed in the upvc double glazed rear window and there is a wall mounted Vaillant gas fired central heating boiler and a gas meter.
First floor landing
White painted timber doors lead to all rooms and there is a slim hatch to the insulated loft space.

The shower room has a ceramic tiled floor and a fitted obscure glazed shower stall with tiled wall and Mira Jump electric shower. A low level w.c is fitted and a pedestal wash hand basin with tiled splashback, a mirror door medicine cabinet above and an adjacent wall mounted shaver point set above the double panel radiator.

Exterior
Garden
This 59'/17.98m garden has a very long west facing boundary wall and because the ground drops away a little behind the wall there are the most magnificent views across the Teign Valley to the high moor which gives the garden plenty of sunshine, especially in the summertime. The garden is laid just to grass at present but there is ample space for a vegetable and fruit garden if desired.

Property information from this agent
About this agent
This beautiful North East corner of Dartmoor is the softer side of the moor and has two attractive principal towns just four miles apart from each other. Both have vibrant thriving communities and superb ranges of amenities as well as great access to countryside, moorland and riverside walks. They have a good variety of day to day and specialist shops, doctors, dentists and veterinary surgeries, churches, chapels, pubs, hotels, cafes and restaurants. Each has a primary school and pre school and in the case of Chagford there is a Montessori as well. Both have super fast broadband. Chagford was voted best small town to live in rural Britain in the Spring of 2015 by the Sunday Times. There are also picturesque villages such as Drewsteignton, Throwleigh, Gidleigh, South Zeal, South Tawton and North Bovey and numerous other smaller rural settlements in the area. This part of Dartmoor enjoys a slightly drier climate, sheltered as it is by the higher moor to the North West, yet it has beautiful lush valleys, rounded hills and peaceful weathered granite tors. Major shops are just 15-20 miles away in Exeter. Fowlers have a prominent corner office in the bustling town square in Chagford and we cover all of North East Dartmoor. Philip Fowler has 34 years of experience as an estate agent and has practised solely in North East Dartmoor for 26 years after running estate agents in Middlesex and Buckinghamshire previously. North East Dartmoor enjoys a great community spirit with many village and town events, flea markets and craft fairs and there is even an annual music festival each July called Chagstock. There is a good arts scene with music, theatre and exhibitions all year round.
