Property description
Rose Cottage is a delightful detached period slate roof cottage situated in the most sought after Mid-Devon hamlet of Penstone, which is just under a mile from the village of Coleford (with the highly regarded New Inn public house) and about 4 miles from Crediton. There are some lovely rural walks to be found nearby, and the area is surrounded by some of Devon's loveliest countryside. A few yards along the country lane lies the excellent Penstone Glade, which is a lovely community space for the hamlet adjacent to the River Yeo, which provides a very pleasant green area for village residents to enjoy. There is also a village car park nearby.
The cottage occupies a central position and is presented in excellent condition having been used in recent years as a holiday home. The rooms are characterful with a large wood-burning stove and bread oven in the living room, a useful study recess to the dining room gives additional space plus a light garden room to the rear overlooking the courtyard. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and the bathroom which has also been well fitted. There is a mix of storage heaters to give background heating plus the wood-burning stove which is linked to the hot water system and radiators giving great flexibility through the seasons. Outside is a pretty front garden with area of lawn and planted beds plus of course the numerous rose plants that give the cottages its name. There is an enclosed and private rear courtyard style garden with seating areas, a side access and useful store plus there is room to park on the road directly to the front of the property.

COLEFORD is just a mile or so away and is a conservation area with many picturesque thatched cottages. The hamlet is nestled in a peaceful valley approximately 3 miles west of Crediton. There is a particularly well-restored ancient thatched inn (The New Inn), which together with the carefully preserved adjoining properties provides an unspoilt example of a traditional small Devon community. King Charles 1 is reputed to have visited the hamlet during the Civil War and he stabled his horses there on 27th July 1644 and also inspected his troops from the porch of Spencer Cottage.
