Raven, Manor House, Edginswell Lane, Torquay

The Approach

Raven Cottage is approached from Edginswell Lane, travelling out of Torquay, and is located just beyond P&P Lifts Ltd and before the left-hand turn into Sonny Bank and Hill Valley. A well-maintained, block-paved parking area, distinguished by a feature wishing well at its centre, provides an attractive first impression. From here, a pathway leads around to the property, where a timber picket fence with matching trellis archway and gate neatly encloses the low-maintenance front garden. A step then rises to the covered porch area and main entrance door, which opens into the inner hallway. This practical space offers a recessed storage area with hanging rail and overhead cupboards. It also offers an internal stained glass window to the kitchen, and a built-in cupboard housing a dedicated tumble dryer space.

Living room/kitchen

The property enjoys an open-plan living room and kitchen, enhanced by exposed ceiling beams which add character to the space. The living area benefits from a double glazed window to the front aspect with a central heating radiator beneath. To one side, a built-in storage cupboard houses the gas boiler, consumer unit and utility meters, while also offering useful additional storage. The adjoining kitchen area is fitted with a matching range of wall and base units with roll-edge work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. There is a stainless steel sink and drainer, under-counter space for both a fridge and freezer, as well as plumbing and space for a washing machine. Cooking facilities are provided by an integrated oven with a countertop gas hob above. From the kitchen, a staircase rises to the first floor, with a small under-stair recess providing further storage.

Bedrooms & Shower Room

To the first floor lies the principal bedroom, positioned to the front of the property and enjoying a double glazed window with a central heating radiator beneath. This is a comfortable double bedroom with space for freestanding furniture. The second bedroom is a smaller double, featuring two Velux roof windows providing ample natural light, together with a central heating radiator. The shower room is of generous proportions and benefits from fully tiled walls and a double glazed window. The suite comprises a corner shower cubicle with mains-fed shower, low level WC and pedestal wash basin, with a central heating radiator.
