Property description
A Grade II listed thatched semi-detached cottage situated in a semi-rural location with views over neighbouring countryside.
Half Mile Cottage is a semi-detached thatched property which is currently run as a successful holiday home. The well-presented accommodation comprises a sitting room with an inglenook fireplace, a living room, a kitchen/dining room and a shower room. To the first floor are three bedrooms and a main bathroom. This Grade II listed cottage benefits from gas central heating, a fully integrated kitchen and white bathroom and shower suites, but also retains original features that include exposed timber beams and lintels.
A good size patio adjoins the rear of the cottage and benefits from a southerly aspect and extends to a further area of paved garden offering a good degree of privacy. Parking for one car is available at the front, with the centre of Sidbury under half a mile away, having amenities such as regular bus services to the surrounding area, a Convenience Store and Butchers, a Public House, Village Hall and Primary School. The town centre and seafront at Sidmouth is approximately three miles away, where there is a broad range of independent shops, High Street chains, Cottage Hospital, Health Centre, Cinema and Theatre and on the outskirts of town is Waitrose Supermarket.
