A delightful and well presented period cottage set in the heart of the town. Entrance lobby, living/dining room, fitted kitchen, cloakroom, 2 bedrooms and shower room. Courtyard garden with useful timber cabin. Council Tax Band B. Freehold.
Situation
Kingscot is located in the much sought after small town of Chulmleigh. The town is set on the eastern side of the highly attractive Taw valley amongst some of the Devon's most unspoilt countryside. The town offers excellent day to day facilities including post office, shops, churches, good primary and senior schooling and popular 18 hole short hole golf course.
The larger market town of South Molton is about 12 miles to the north and offers a further range of amenities. About 21 miles to the east is Tiverton and Junction 27 on the M5 is a further seven miles where there is also a station on the Paddington line at Tiverton Parkway. To the south, the Cathedral City of Exeter, about 25 miles, also offers direct access onto the M5 motorway as well as an airport and main line railway station with intercity rail service to London Paddington. There is also a sprinter branch line service running along the Tarka Line from Exeter to Barnstaple through Eggesford or Kings Nympton station within a short distance of the property.
Description
Kingscot is a delightful Grade II listed period property, which enjoys an outlook over the historic town centre and is only a few level steps from the town's main amenities. Believed to date back to the 17th century, the accommodation has been tastefully modernised while still retaining a host of features. In good decorative order, the property also benefits from oil fired central heating and lends itself to being ideal for retirement or holiday/second home use.
Accommodation
The front door leads into an entrance LOBBY which leads directly into the LIVING/DINING ROOM with an attractive stone fireplace with a timber surround and mantel. Off this room is a REAR HALL with tiled floor and stable door to the rear courtyard. The KITCHEN is fitted with a range of base units and matching wall units, electric Aga cooker, stainless steel sink with mixer tap, plumbing for dishwasher, part tiled walls and tiled floor. The CLOAKROOM is fitted with a WC and wash basin and has a useful store area, which also houses the oil fired boiler.
On the FIRST FLOOR there is a spacious GALLERIED LANDING with built in cupboards and doors off to the TWO BEDROOMS and SHOWER ROOM fitted with a modern suite.
Outside
To the rear of the cottage is a fully enclosed courtyard garden. There is a very useful LOG CABIN which has power and light connected and provides a further occasional living/study space.
Un-restricted parking is available outside the property.
Services
Mains water, electricity and drainage. Oil fired central heating via radiators. Mobile coverage is available for all major providers. Standard and superfast broadband are available.
