Property description
INTRODUCTION
An Edwardian terraced cottage built in 1901 attractively faced in stone and brick. Retaining most of its period features, including the stone mullion window, timber windows, doors and sitting room fireplace and the signature Herringbone parquet flooring is believed to be still under the carpet. The accommodation comprises sitting room, dining room, kitchen, and shower room on the ground floor and two bedrooms (was three) on the first floor, the two rear bedrooms have been made into one. Outside there is a tiled front garden and to the rear is a good sized enclosed garden and recently built workshop. The property benefits from electric heating and an open fire in the sitting room, and still retains some of its period features. The kitchen extension on the rear has been built so a second story could be added. A fine example of a home built in the time of Sir Walter Trevelyan's development and improvement of Seaton in the last few decades of the 19th century and the property has been in the same family since it was built.
Services connected are mains electric, water and drains. The EPC rating is E.
The council tax band is C.
