Full Details for 3 Bedroom Detached for sale in Exeter, EX6 :
Beautifully presented and lovingly maintained, this detached, Grade II listed cottage offers a wealth of historical character and charm, estuary and countryside views, an enclosed, southerly aspect garden, a further, detached garden, double garage, workshop and parking for at least four vehicles.
Described by Historic England as being remarkably well-preserved, both internally and externally, the Grade II listed Southbrook Cottage is believed to have been built in the late 17th Century and oozes a wealth of character and charm. It is also believed that the property formed two separate cottages at one time and was even in the ownership of The Earl of Devon until as recently as 1957. The character features include exposed timber beams and flooring, deep window sills, ledge and brace doors and several fireplaces. The majority of the rooms enjoy a bright and sunny, southerly aspect.
On the ground floor is the living room with impressive Inglenook fireplace, versatile bedroom/reception room, dining room and kitchen/breakfast room. The dual-aspect dining room provides access to the garden as well as a separate study area. The kitchen/breakfast room, forming part of an extension the rear of the property, enjoys an everchanging outlook over neighbouring fields. Also forming part of the extension is a useful utility and a wet room. On the first floor are two further double bedrooms, both enjoying views towards the Exe Estuary, an ensuite bathroom, separate dressing room (also enjoying the views) and a bathroom.
The garden is a real feature of the property, being totally enclosed and enjoying both a sunny, southerly aspect and a high degree of privacy. Located on the other side of the road is a detached wild flower garden, a gravelled driveway providing parking for at least four vehicles (including a boat/trailer) and a double garage with adjoining workshop.
Southbrook Cottage would suit a variety of buyers including professional couples, the semi-retired/retired and those seeking a traditional holiday home, be it just for weekends away or extended breaks. The property has also previously been run as a successful, five-star rated holiday letting business.
