Full Details for 2 Bedroom Cottage for sale in Exeter, EX5 :
Property
Woodhayes Cottage is a detached, Grade II listed cottage located in a stunning countryside location with no immediate neighbours and a large garden, a short distance from the popular village of Whimple. The cottage has been extended and completely renovated in recent years, providing character 2-bedroom accommodation. A large and airy kitchen / dining room is at the heart of the home, with bespoke oak cupboards and bench seating, Belfast sink, slate flooring and concealed cupboards for appliances. The characterful sitting room has beautiful original features including exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, with a top-quality wood-burning stove installation which powers a modern, thermostatically-controlled central heating system to all rooms. Sympathetic shelving and wood storage cupboards add practicality with period charm, and an adjacent study provides further built-in shelving and living space. A good-sized modern bathroom is located downstairs, with plentiful storage and natural travertine tiles. Upstairs are two bedrooms with window seats and fantastic views of the local countryside. The larger bedroom features a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers. Useful built-in storage is provided on the landing, and under the stairs.
Mains water is connected and there is a second supply from a well, which runs the toilet and outside tap. Drainage is private, using a septic tank.
Outside
The large gardens are a particular feature of the property, with far-reaching views over the surrounding countryside. To one side of the house, the kitchen opens on to a patio area and a lawn with flowerbeds, then a meandering path with stepping stones leads down through cottage gardens to a delightful timber workshop (16' 2\" X 9' 1\") and a greenhouse. Past this is a further lawned area which was previously sown as a wildflower meadow. From the patio, a path leads round the back of the house to a further large lawned area, at the end of which is a gravelled parking area for several cars. A traditional Devon bank separates this garden from the fields behind, and gives further lovely views to the south. A wooden gate ends the garden, and a gravelled parking area is found outside this. Planning permission has been granted for a large timber wood store adjacent to the parking area.
Directions
Proceed from Ottery St Mary up Barrack Road until you reach the roundabout and take the 2nd exit signposted Whimple. At the next roundabout continue straight across and continue on taking the second right signposted Whimple. Turn right into Woodhayes Lane, continue along the lane and the cottage will be on the right hand side.
Location
Whimple is a most sought after East Devon village approximately 9 miles from both Exeter and Honiton. It is unusual in having a main line Railway Station with regular service to Exeter and Waterloo. The village has a Church, School, Post Office, Hairdresser and two Public Houses, Tennis and Cricket Clubs and many other Clubs and Societies.
