1 bed cottage for sale

Fore Street, Ivybridge PL21

Christopher’s South Hams are delighted to market this quaint and charming period cottage tucked away in the heart of Ivybridge.

Description

A private, shared passageway invites you through a pedestrian gate with the cottage awaiting you beyond.

The reception room, with its cosy log burner, leads to the kitchen which has been fitted with oak units to compliment the cottage’s rustic character. The reception room also has a rear door to a private walled passage that leads to the old external outhouse with WC, now used for storage. Hop across the pathway opposite your front door to your private, low maintenance garden/courtyard (with wooden shed), a small blank canvas ready to put your own stamp on and be creative.

Stairs from the kitchen lead to the large and spacious bedroom, flooded with light from its dual aspect. The bedroom also benefits from a built-in wardrobe and small walk-in boiler cupboard with shelving for additional storage. An immaculate ensuite shower-room completes the accommodation.

Recently re-roofed, re-rendered and neutrally decorated throughout, there is still plenty of scope to personalise this super cottage which should attract a wide audience, from first-time buyers, those looking for a retirement bolt-hole, downsizing or even an investor.
Viewings are highly recommended.
