Property description
Mount Pleasant Cottage is conveniently situated close to the heart of this picturesque semi-rural village surrounded by beautiful rolling Devon countryside providing excellent walking/riding facilities. Although this lovely setting creates an ambience of being remote, the nearby market town of Cullompton, major supermarkets and access to M5 north and south are approximately only a 15-20 minute drive away as is the Cathedral city of Exeter.
The property has been extensively refurbished in recent years, whilst being sympathetic to the age of the property; retaining many original features creating a 'ready to move into' characterful and charming home. The beautifully presented and spacious accommodation is extremely versatile and would lend itself to create an annexe if ever required.
The property briefly comprises; reception porch, sitting room with feature fireplace, exposed beams and Plank and Muntin screen. The kitchen/dining room is another impressive spacious room enjoying a dual aspect and fitted with a range of traditional timber cupboards and drawers both at base and eye level with ample worksurfaces and room for modern appliances. There is plenty of room for a family sized dining table and chairs and a large window seat creating a lovely environment for families to cook, dine and socialise together. A utility room offers additional storage and appliance space. There is a good size office and another spacious dual aspect room would lend itself as formal dining room if ever required; this is currently used as a work/hobbies room. This is situated near the shower room, providing potential as a ground floor bedroom/annexe if ever required. The ground floor is concluded by a lovely drawing room which is again another characterful room with Inglenook fireplace, exposed beams and a lovely dual aspect room with French doors giving direct access on to the landscaped gardens.
On the first floor are four good sized bedrooms with the master benefitting from a particularly spacious luxury en-suite facility. The en-suite and family bathroom are both fitted with a stylish white suite. There are pleasant views across the garden towards the surrounding countryside from most of the principle rooms. The property also benefits from a modern oil fired central heating system.
In all, a superb Grade II Listed characterful and charming cottage with spacious accommodation which must be viewed to appreciate all on offer
Outside, the property is approached by a five bar timber gate leading onto a long and substantial gravelled driveway providing off road parking for numerous vehicles including boats, caravan etc. There is a large timber workshop with light and power and garden sheds.
The garden is a real feature of this property and would please any keen gardener, with deep, well established flowerbeds bursting with a variety of specimen plants, shrubs and small trees.
There is a large expanse of lawn providing plenty of room for children to run and play with a substantial paved patio area to enjoy outdoor dining/entertaining in this idyllic setting along with an attractive summerhouse.
The gardens and grounds extend to approximately half an acre.
