Property description
1 New Inn Cottages is a spacious mid terrace character cottage situated in the centre of the popular Mid Devon village of Chawleigh. The property is of traditional stone and cob construction under a tiled roof with rendered and colour washed elevations and uPVC double glazed windows throughout. Internally the property offers spacious three bedroom accommodation with a character Sitting Room, a large Kitchen/Dining Room, a First Floor Bathroom and a Cloakroom. The current owners have renovated the property to a high standard including re-fitting the Kitchen and Bathrooms, re-plastering all the walls, redecorating and re-carpeting throughout and installing a super oil-fired Rayburn in the Kitchen for cooking, room heating, providing domestic hot water and servicing radiators. Outside and to the front of the cottage there is off-road parking for two cars and a small walled garden, whilst at the rear of the cottage there is a large enclosed garden which is mainly laid to lawn with a paved patio area at one end creating a really super feature.
