Chenson, Chulmleigh, EX18

Number 3 Chenson Cottages is a two bedroom end of terrace stone cottage set in a rural position near Eggesford Forest, with countryside surroundings and easy access to nearby transport links, including Eggesford station just two miles away & the property is within the Chulmleigh School catchment area. The property is being sold with no onward chain.

The cottage offers a straightforward layout with two reception rooms, including a main lounge with a wood-burning stove, providing a comfortable focal point. The additional reception room gives flexibility for dining or everyday use, depending on how the space is arranged.  The two bedrooms are both south facing doubles and have a lovely outlook over the garden.  The bathroom has a shower, wc & sink.

While the property would benefit from some updating, it provides a solid base for improvement and the opportunity to shape the interior over time.

Outside, the front garden is a particularly strong feature, south-facing and generous in size, offering space for seating, planting or further landscaping. There is also a garage and off-road parking.

A number of stone outbuildings sit alongside the property, offering useful storage or potential for alternative uses, subject to any necessary permissions.  There is a pretty stream running through beside the stone barns.

Overall, this is a cottage that will suit buyers looking for a rural setting with scope to update and make changes over time, rather than a fully finished home, with the benefit of outside space and good access to the surrounding area.
