Rockbeare, Exeter

On the market for the first time in over 80 years, this property must be seen to fully appreciate the opportunity it presents.

Sydney cottage sits in the heart of Rockbeare Village on a generous plot of approx 0.45 acres and offers amazing potential to create a beautiful family home.

Upon entering the property, the entrance hall leads to two generously sized reception rooms, both featuring open fireplaces. The fitted kitchen overlooks the rear garden, while a utility room and bathroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

Stairs rise from the living room to the first floor, where you'll find three well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying views over the front garden.
While the property does require refurbishment, the opportunity it presents is truly rare and not to be missed.

Outside 
The gardens extend around the entire property, offering various seating areas, a brick store, and greenhouse to the rear.  The front garden boasts attractive borders and a charming well.  Additional outbuildings include a driveway, two carports, a workshop, and a coal shed. Interestingly, these were originally two cottages, adding to its charm and potential.
