3 bedroom detached house

Thimble Cottage is an attractive stone-built period property offering light-filled attractive accommodation arranged over three floors, sympathetically modernised to combine the amenities of modern living with character features
including exposed beams, recessed windows with
window seats and a large fireplace with fitted wood burner. Planning permission was granted by South Hams District Council to extend the property on all three levels in December 2017. Planning Ref: 2874/17/HHO.

The ground floor accommodation briefly comprises a sitting/dining room with an open fireplace with woodburning stove, window seating and French doors to the rear garden together with a spacious kitchen with a range of contemporary wall and floor units with composite stone worktops, range cooker and front entrance door. Stairs from the sitting room rise to the first floor which provides a generous front aspect principal bedroom with window seating, two further well-proportioned front aspect bedrooms and a modern fully tiled family bathroom.

The lower ground floor, accessible from the garden terrace, offers a fitted utility room/ cloakroom and studio/fourth bedroom with shower room.

The cottage is located a short walk from Batson
Creek in a picturesque tranquil position in Higher
Batson on the outskirts of the renowned estuary
town of Salcombe, famed for its uncommonly temperate climate, verdant unspoilt countryside
and spectacular coastline.

The property is approached over a gravelled side
driveway providing private off-road parking with
further parking to the other side of the cottage.
The enclosed rear garden includes a large block
paved terrace accessed from the sitting room - an
ideal elevated, outdoor entertaining space from
which to enjoy panoramic views over the Batson
Valley and surrounding countryside. A grassed
slope leads past a large garden store with double
doors to the mainly lawned garden bordered by
well-stocked flowerbeds and a wide variety of mature shrubs and trees.
