2 bed property for sale

Silver Street, Bampton, Tiverton EX16

A charming two bedroom period cottage with delightful, secluded garden, quietly tucked away off a pretty side street in the heart of Bampton.

Quietly tucked away in the heart of the small country town of Bampton, this charming 18th-century cottage enjoys a convenient central location, within easy walking distance of the town’s excellent range of amenities, including independent shops, pubs and cafés, together with a primary school and doctors’ surgery. The larger market town of Tiverton lies approximately 7 miles to the south, providing access to Junction 27 of the M5 via dual carriageway, as well as Tiverton Parkway mainline station, with regular intercity services to London Paddington taking around two hours.

Believed to date from the 18th century, the cottage offers deceptively spacious and characterful accommodation, retaining a number of attractive period features including wooden latch doors, alongside double-glazed hardwood windows and oil-fired central heating. A stable front door opens into the entrance area, with stairs rising to the first floor and a useful cloakroom tucked beneath. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a good range of wall and floor units, incorporating an electric oven, with space for a washing machine and fridge freezer. The sitting room has a feature fireplace and an archway leads through to a conservatory, with double doors opening onto the garden.

On the first floor, the light and airy landing has a Velux roof light and airing cupboard with a radiator. There are two double bedrooms and a shower room.

The cottage is approached from Silver Street through a pedestrian door leading to a cross passage, with a wrought iron gate opening into a small courtyard in front of the property. To the rear is a pretty and secluded garden, laid mainly to lawn with an apple tree, timber garden shed and greenhouse. The property benefits from a right of way over the cross passage.
