Venn Hill, Milton Abbot, Tavistock

This charming three-bedroom cottage, designed by the renowned Sir Edwin Lutyens, offers beautifully proportioned accommodation, character features throughout, and a generous south-facing garden. Occupying a central village position with views towards the local church, the property is within easy walking distance of the village primary school and local amenities.

The accommodation is entered via the original front door into a welcoming entrance hall featuring attractive parquet flooring and useful understairs storage. From here, doors lead to the principal reception rooms and kitchen.

The spacious sitting room is a particularly attractive space, centred around a log-burning stove set on a slate hearth. A striking bay window with a deep window seat provides delightful views across the communal green and towards the church beyond, while a floor-to-ceiling fitted bookcase adds both character and practicality.

A useful utility room provides plumbing for a washing machine, external access to the rear of the property, and leads through to a ground-floor shower room.

The first floor is accessed via a staircase with distinctive shallow treads, enhancing the sense of space throughout the home. A large triple window on the landing floods the area with natural light and frames attractive views of the church.

There are three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect via two dormer windows, creating a bright and airy feel, while Bedrooms Two and Three each benefit from dormer windows with deep window sills. Bedroom Two also features a useful built-in storage cupboard.

Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom, fitted with a bath, wash hand basin and WC, with original stripped floorboards adding further character.
