Property description

Rose Cottage is a period detached house found in the heart of this popular village which has great access to Exeter, the A30 and beautiful Dartmoor. The cottage also enjoys far reaching views of rolling Devon countryside onto the moors in the distance.

The accommodation includes three double bedrooms and a large family bathroom upstairs, the spacious downstairs includes two reception rooms, kitchen with larder, sun room, cloakroom with WC and a sizeable workshop/hobbies room. The house is in need of improvement, but is largely double glazed.

Outside, the property enjoys a large, level and South facing garden with areas of lawn with mature flower beds with bushes and shrubs growing, there’s a small orchard, caged area ideal for growing fruit and berries, plus a space for vegetable plots if desired. There is a fantastic amount of parking and an integral garage too.

POTENTIAL SITE (using half the garden) – With a government drive for more ‘Starter Homes’ to be built, it may be possible to get planning here within the next 18 months – The vendor has provided preliminary drawings for 3 houses to be built which we hold a copy of.
