Description
Description
A charming and substantial country residence occupying a peaceful and private rural setting with no immediate neighbours. Successfully extended by the current owners, the property offers generous and versatile accommodation, together with approximately 2.28 acres of land, an array of outbuildings and some wonderful established features. The property provides an excellent opportunity for someone looking to create their own country retreat. The gardens and grounds have become overgrown in places and would benefit from some tender loving care and imaginative landscaping, but there is plenty here to work with, including mature trees and shrubs, productive growing areas, a small lake, greenhouse, fruit cage and an impressive 70' x 50' polytunnel. One of the stand-out features of the garden is the superb covered gazebo, which is in wonderful order and provides an exceptional space for outdoor dining and entertaining. A fantastic area for summer lunches, evening drinks or (truncated)
Situation
West Down Cottage enjoys a peaceful and private rural setting on the fringe of the attractive village of Ashwater, approximately 2 miles from the village centre. Ashwater is a small and friendly West Devon community, centred around its traditional village green and offering a good range of local facilities including a community shop and Post Office, village pub, parish church, village hall and primary school. The surrounding countryside provides wonderful opportunities for walking, riding and enjoying the outdoors, while the nearby Devon and Cornwall border offers easy access to the many attractions of both counties.

Launceston is approximately 10 miles, while the A30 can be reached at Okehampton or via the Broadwoodwidger access, providing fast dual-carriageway connections towards Exeter and Cornwall.

Exeter is approximately 40 miles by road, with the M5 motorway accessible via Exeter, while Exeter International Airport is also within easy reach. The coastal resort of Bude is approximately 16 miles away, adding to the appeal of this peaceful yet surprisingly accessible rural location.
