Situated in an extremely convenient location just a moments walk from Ivybridge’s bustling high street is this charming cottage which has been lovingly restored and renovated by its current owners, now presenting a home with a wonderful blend of character features and modern fixtures and fittings.

DESCRIPTION
Upon entry into this gorgeous home, a welcoming and tastefully decorated hallway greets you, provides space for the storage of coats and shoes, and also houses the staircase rising to the first floor with storage beneath. On the ground floor there is a surprisingly spacious sitting room at the front, with a uPVC double glazed ‘Sash’ window looking towards St. John’s Churchyard, and a feature fireplace with wood-burning stove. The alcoves have been nicely fitted with shelving and traditional cupboards, providing useful storage space. At the rear, a tasteful kitchen/diner can be found; a fantastic space which is wonderfully bright thanks to its southerly facing orientation. The kitchen comprises a range of modern wall and base units with attractive tiled splashback, providing integrated appliances such as oven, induction hob, cooker hood, dishwasher and washing machine. Space is also provided for a free-standing fridge/freezer. A door leads out to the rear garden from the kitchen, and there is plenty of room for a dining table and chairs.

On the first floor a central landing space gives access to three bedrooms and a bathroom. The master bedroom is a generous double room with a pretty open outlook to the front, boasting easy access to the loft space above which has been boarded for further storage. The second bedroom is a generous single or a small double, then the third bedroom is a superb single room which has been fitted with a captains bed which sits above the staircase; helping to maximise floor space. The family bathroom has been incredibly well thought-out, with a tasteful modern design including free-standing ‘Egg’ bath with wall taps, walk-in shower, toilet and corner basin.

Outside there is useful side access to the rear of the property via a shared alleyway, then to the rear is a delightful southerly facing garden which is laid with attractive paving, provides a feature pergola and has been beautifully planted to provide privacy and shade.
