Tucked along a country lane in the sought-after village of Ashton, this charming three bedroom, double fronted detached cottage is conveniently situated for access to the South West Coast Path and the delightful, rugged coastline beyond.
Light and vibrant, the home offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout, with white washed exposed stonework, white beamed ceilings, exposed floorboards and a pleasing blend of traditional features and modern comforts.
Well proportioned and enjoying a sunny outlook the charming ground floor has a cosy lounge with a feature white washed stone wall, wood flooring and a local stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove, ideal for cosy evenings after a coastal walk. Across the hall, the dining room enjoys the same characterful stonework and beams, and opens directly into the modern fitted kitchen, equipped with a good range of cupboards, drawers, and integrated appliances.
A useful utility room, together with a nicely appointed downstairs shower room with a generous walk-in shower, completes the ground floor picture.
Upstairs, attractive exposed floorboards run through the landing and all three bedrooms. Both double bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes and views towards the sea in the distance. The third bedroom is a versatile space, ideal as a single room, home office or nursery, and is complemented by a family bathroom with a modern white suite and overhead shower.
Outside, the front has an established bed with shrubs & plants, whilst an adjacent driveway provides off road parking for a number of vehicles. The driveway leads on to the garage, alongside which, a gate opens out into the well tended rear garden. A real highlight the garden is neatly enclosed by fencing and Cornish hedging and enjoys a pleasant rural outlook to the rear. Largely laid to lawn and relatively level, it features raised beds and a stone chipped patio which would seem a lovely spot in which to relax and enjoy afternoon and evening sunshine.
