Fore Street, Dolton, Winkleigh, Devon, EX19

Opening the gate onto the path that leads to the stable front door you get a sense of what owning this lovely home is all about. Well stocked gardens run beside you with the summer house positioned to take full advantage of the outlook. A sheltered gravel terrace adjacent to the front door provides a perfect spot to quietly read a book, take in the bird song or entertain family and friends. The stable front door with its low thatch opens into a small hall which is an ideal place to keep outdoor equipment. Opening up the inner door you are greeted by a wonderful cosy sitting room with the impressive stone inglenook fireplace taking centre stage with its bread oven and log burner sat upon a raised hearth and a window seat looking out into the garden. The stairs to the first floor are hidden behind the door in one corner. The dining room is no less impressive having ceiling beams and a connecting door to the study/office which has a large picture window overlooking the neighbours garden and a large walk in utility cupboard with space for a washing machine and on the wall a modern gas boiler. An opening off the dining room takes you into a small but perfectly formed refitted kitchen with work surfaces on 3 sides with electric hob & oven, under counter fridge space and Velux window. The first floor landing with its extra large built in cupboard, which is perfect for clothes storage, leads to both the double bedrooms, one being of a particularly good size for a cottage and also enjoying an outlook across the garden. Not a bad way to start the day! Rounding off the accommodation is a stylish bathroom with white 3 piece suite.

As previously mentioned the gardens are a true delight being laid to a swathe of lawn behind a low stone wall and over the years have been planted with a vast array of cottage style plants and shrubs with a fine acer sitting proudly centre stage.
Leave Torrington on the A3124 towards Winkleigh. Continue for approx 9 miles, passing through Beaford then turn right at Dolton Beacon Garage, signposted Dolton. Continue into the village and take the third right into Fore Street where the pedestrian gate will be found on the left hand side behind the low stone wall, before the post box.
