Lower Town, Sampford Peverell, Tiverton, Devon, EX16

An individual detached house with gardens and a garage, situated in the centre of this sought after village.

Turberfield Cottage is an individual detached village house that has been occupied by the same owner since it was built 48 years ago.

The house occupies a demanding position within the village looking up through ‘Lower Town’, you can certainly keep your eye on village activities of which there are many in this very sociable and active village.

The property was built by a reputable local builder 48 years ago and the owners have kept the property in excellent condition ever since.

The drive sweeps off of the road and leads up a shared drive (along with two other properties) to a single garage and parking area. There is a further shared parking area at the foot of the drive.

The ‘formal’ front door is rarely used, the ‘back door’ entering into the utility is the perfect place to kick off your shoes. There is space here for a washing machine and a fridge freezer. Continue into the kitchen which you will find is well fitted with numerous base and wall mounted cupboards, and drawers, an inset ceramic hob, integrated oven and microwave, floor mounted gas fired boiler and the sink is found in the utility room. The dining room is conveniently placed just off the kitchen and between the sitting room and garden room creating a really sociable ‘flow’ to the house. The study however is quietly tucked away so that you can work in peace and quiet.

The sitting room is a lovely light triple aspect room, overlooking the garden to the rear and into the village to the front. A stone fireplace with an inset gas fire forms a central feature and there is plenty of room for sofas and armchairs.
The garden room is found just off the dining room, is heated and has a door opening out to the rear garden – this is a relaxing and very useable space year-round.

On the first floor are three double bedrooms, the master being dual aspect and a particularly good size, and a family bathroom with a large area of very useful under eaves storage.

The level gardens wrap around the property with an expanse of lawn to the front, side and rear, surrounding borders and part walled. A patio lies behind the property offering a good seating area, where you will also find a timber shed upon a hardstanding. The single garage has a roller door and power and light connected.
