Description
Located on Boringdon Hill, Ivy Cottage is perfectly situated for local amenities in Colebrook Village including the Colebrook Inn, local shops and a tearoom. It is also close to top-rated schools including Boringdon Primary and Hele`s Secondary, two golf courses are nearby (Boringdon and Elfordleigh) and Dartmoor starts at the top of the road!
Sited on a substantial plot with a large, secluded garden, complete with fruit trees and outbuildings, Ivy Cottage offers great potential. Keen gardeners will appreciate the mature planting which includes apple, cherry and plum trees, hazel bushes and pollinator plants. There is also a real opportunity for those that dream of The Good Life` to create something special. For growing families or those that have a grand design, the side and rear gardens offer up expansion space, and could be developed subject to planning permission.
Having originally been workers accommodation for the orchard, Ivy Cottage has been converted back to a single dwelling, believed to have been originally split into two around the 1900`s. For a bit of added exclusivity, reinstating the cottage as one dwelling has resulted in Ivy Cottage having its own unique postcode.
Entering the cottage, the ground floor welcomes you with a generous lounge and an exposed stone fireplace housing a recently fitted wood-burning stove. There`s a large downstairs shower room, an inner vestibule, a cottage kitchen with range cooker and a separate dining room. If desired, the kitchen and dining room could easily be transformed into a magnificent open-plan space, perfect for families and entertaining.
Upstairs, you`ll find four well-proportioned bedrooms, each brimming with a unique cottage feel. Deep window sills, thumb latch doors, and quirky features such as the stained glass window at the top of the stairs all add character to this unique home. A traditional cottage style family bathroom with exposed stone walls is at the rear with views over the garden.
Outside, the garden wraps around the cottage two out buildings are situated at the very top, a summer house with power and light, and a larger gardeners shed. The garden has views across Plympton and provides a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the City, and a lovely place from which to enjoy a cold drink on a Summers evening.
A double driveway and a large double garage with electric roller shutter door provide off road parking and storage, highly sought after in this area of Plympton.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a distinctive home in one of Plympton`s most desirable and characterful locations. Homes like this, with such potential seldom come to market and we`re confident you will love it as much as the current owners do.
