Leigham Terrace, Kingsbridge

The Property:

Entering from the rear of the property, you'll find a well-appointed kitchen fitted with a range of base units, ample worktop space and an inset sink beneath the window. There is an integrated oven and gas hob, together with plumbing and space for a washing machine, creating a practical and functional workspace.

The kitchen opens into a spacious dining room, where traditional sash windows overlook the rear courtyard. There is built-in storage and additional under-stair cupboards which offer useful everyday practicality. Subject to any necessary consents, there is potential to reconfigure this area to create an impressive open-plan kitchen and dining space if desired.

To the front of the cottage, the sitting room is a wonderfully cosy retreat, featuring exposed wooden flooring, an open fireplace and a sash window enjoying pleasant views across the town. A door leads directly out to the enclosed front garden, allowing the outside space to become a natural extension of the room during the warmer months.

The first floor comprises two bedrooms and a modern shower room. The principal bedroom is a generous double positioned at the front of the property, benefitting from attractive town views, original floorboards and a decorative period fireplace. The second bedroom is a comfortable guest room or home office, also featuring a decorative fireplace which adds further character to the space.

Completing the accommodation is a contemporary shower room, fitted with a large walk-in shower, wash hand basin and WC.

The property enjoys several outdoor spaces, including a rear garden, a rear courtyard and a small front garden, predominantly laid to lawn, providing an attractive place to sit and enjoy the outlook.

The rear garden is accessed via a pathway and has a lawned area as well as a gravelled seating area and a shed at the top providing garden storage. A further useful brick-built store provides valuable external storage. The courtyard is directly outside the rear door making a good space for seating or further storage if required.
