Description
The Rising Sun is a stone-built property dating back to the 1800s, situated in the historic village of Diptford. Once a bustling public house, it is now a charming family home in need of some renovation, offering a wealth of original features and potential. The current owners have cherished the property for over 30 years, maintaining its character while leaving room for modern upgrades.
As soon as you enter the house you are greeted by a welcoming atmosphere with its beautifully proportioned large, light-filled rooms and high ceilings. Many of the original features remain intact, including stripped pine doors and surrounds, skirtings and picture rails, enhancing its period charm. The kitchen is spacious enough to accommodate a table and chairs, making it an ideal family space.
The sitting room features double-aspect windows, a wooden mantelpiece with an open fire and a lounge showcasing a striking Ashburton stone fireplace. A sunroom facing south offers tranquil views over the flat, enclosed garden.
Stripped pine doors and skirtings continue on the first floor with a spacious landing leading to 4 bedrooms, all with views and a large family bathroom. With its prominent location, historical character and renovation potential, The Rising Sun presents an exciting opportunity for those looking to restore and personalise a unique period property.
Outside, the property has an enclosed, walled cobbled courtyard that provides off-road parking. Wooden doors lead to a substantial garage which could, subject to planning permission, be converted into additional accommodation or a separate annexe. The south-west facing rear garden is completely enclosed, offering a private and level outdoor space.
