*** VIRTUAL VIEWING TOUR *** The Good Life! A delightful individual Grade II Listed detached cottage in lovely rural location with fantastic access to Exeter and the A30, with many outbuildings and set in 6.5 acres with wonderful far reaching views.

SITUATION Chants Cottage is situated in a lovely rural location just 5 miles west of Exeter, which provides an extensive range of facilities and transport links to the rest of the country. It lies between the small village of Whitestone and the larger village of Tedburn St Mary with its A30 access (1.5 miles), which connects to the M5 motorway network. The boundary of the Dartmoor National Park is within 5 miles to the southwest.

DESCRIPTION Chants Cottage is a delightful detached Grade II Listed cottage which is set in land of 6.5 acres including two large paddocks, with plenty of space for horses, (or geese, sheep and chickens as the current vendors have!) plus areas for growing vegetables and masses of parking. There is great flexibility with the outbuildings too.

The English Heritage notes state that it dates from the late 17th or early 18th Century and was extended in the late 18th/early 19th centuries. It is of whitewashed elevations under a thatched roof, and has a wealth of character features befitting this period. Further historical information is available from www.imagesofengland.org.uk. The current owners have improved the property and grounds in their time, now benefitting from upgraded windows and central heating, as well as replacing the family bathroom too.

Front porch leads into the DINING ROOM which is a dual aspect room facing south and east with staircase to first floor. The SITTING ROOM is a triple aspect room facing south, west and north and has an attractive open fireplace and beams. Off the dining room is a KITCHEN, a dual aspect room with sink and a range of stainless steel cupboards and worktops and space for a gas ‘Range style’ cooker (available by negotiation). There is also a utility room to the front which is access from outside.

On the first floor, BEDROOM 1 is a good sized triple aspect double bedroom, BEDROOMS 2 AND 3 face south. Attractive rural views are enjoyed particularly from the first floor. The replaced white suite BATHROOM has a bath with shower over, wc and wash basin along with airing cupboard.

PARKING AND GARDENS  

The property is approached via its own drive which leads to the side of the house to a large parking area. The gardens lie to the rear and side of the property and are mainly laid to lawn.

OUTBUILDINGS AND LAND

A Gate leads into the STABLE YARD which has two stable blocks with up to 5 boxes (2 concrete block and 3 timber), which offer great potential to create an ANNEXE (subject to permissions) with the current owners using it as an occasional bedroom with its woodburning stove fired up. The GARAGE is attached to the second block. There’s an adjoining gently sloping grass field on the west side of the cottage. The field on the eastern side of the cottage has separate vehicular access to the road, and is partly level and partly sloping.

Overall the property amounts to about 6.5 ACRES.

DIRECTIONAL NOTE

From Exeter Exe Bridges take Okehampton Street next, continue out over the traffic lights and at the mini roundabout at Luggs Farm, on the outskirts of the city, go straight on to Whitestone. Go into and through Whitestone continuing to the top of the hill whereupon at Heath Cross continue straight on with the property being on the left hand side after a third of a mile, marked by a Helmores board.

From the M5 motorway proceed on the A30 west towards Okehampton. After 7 miles leave at the Fingle Glen exit signposted Tedburn St Mary. At the roundabout turn left signposted Tedburn St Mary and on entering the village turn right at the first mini roundabout.
