Description
The Forge is set in the popular village of Cheriton Bishop, nestled amongst the rolling hills and farmland of Devon with Dartmoor National Park as a backdrop. With a wealth of character features and a versatile layout, this property will make a fantastic home for its next owner to enjoy.
The kitchen/diner is spacious and light with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and the doors to the garden provide a perfect view. There is an oil fired Aga and bespoke solid wood units and worktops. There is a handy utility room and hall with a window seat creating a perfect dining area. The cosy lounge has an inglenook fireplace with woodburning stove and is the perfect spot to relax and unwind. There is a bedroom on the ground floor that could also be used as a study or playroom. Stairs lead up to a further two bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom is an impressive room with vaulted ceilings and original timbers. The bathroom has a roll top bath and a separate shower with access through to the 2nd bedroom.
The annexe can be easily accessed through a door and although works perfectly as a separate living area (with separate external access) would also open up and work well as one home. There is a sitting room and kitchen/breakfast room with a bathroom on the ground floor and then stairs up to two attractive and spacious bedrooms with a large dressing area. There is solar PV panels and oil fired central heating.
Outside the beautiful enclosed garden sits surrounded by the house which is laid to lawn with a patio area perfect for outdoor dining with shrub and flower borders. A garage/workshops sets at the end of the property and gates lead into the spacious drive with parking for 3-4 vehicles.
