Brimming with character, this attractive four-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage, located in The Square within the popular village of Whimple, is one to be seen. The property is in need of some updating to bring it back to its full potential.

Upon entering the property from The Square, there is a hallway with attractive tiled flooring, a cloakroom, a living room with dual-aspect windows and an attractive brick arched fireplace with a multi-fuel burner, a dining room with central beam & window seat, a study, fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the garden with beams and recess with oil fired Rayburn and heavy beam over. On the first floor there are 4 bedrooms, bedroom 1 with built-in wardrobes and a family bathroom suite.

The property also has oil-fired central heating. Viewing is highly recommended.

Outside
To the rear of the property is an enclosed garden with a lawned area, brick paved patio and summer house. There is also a store area (7'1 X 5'3) with access from the front which, combined with the study, forms part of the original garage.
