No Chain! This highly individual, refurbished and beautifully extended detached cottage offers old world charm, along with modern conveniences, set in a village location close to a shop, plus gardens, garage and parking!
DESCRIPTION Chapters is a south facing and beautifully refurbished Grade II Listed detached cottage set in a tucked away position in this pretty village, just a very short walk to the community stores with post office and the historic church.
The current owners have undergone extensive improvements to every room and added a wonderful timber clad extension with an impressive glass corridor connecting the two.
The kitchen diner extension is particularly impressive with the use of ash and oak for the worktops and units, plus a superb centre island with smooth slate worktop. There is an inset Belfast sink, two double doors to the gardens and space for a Range style gas cooker (available by negotiation) too. The large living room is set in the original cottage and enjoys a huge open fire place. There is also a utility room with WC, further sink and gas combi-boiler providing hot water and central heating to the property (Calor gas bottles). Heading up the staircase (enjoying the glass wall/ceiling!), the first floor offers three double bedrooms with a lovely en-suite shower room to the master and a separate family bathroom. The second bedroom has a great feature window which looks internally across the staircase to the kitchen area.
Outside the property has mature gardens to the front giving the cottage much privacy, plus a 25m / 81ft garden to the side/rear. The main garden is level, has areas of lawn, a footpath leading through the mature plants and shrubs growing, plus a fish pond. To the bottom of the garden is a detached garage with parking in front and to the side.

Kennerleigh is a village truly undisturbed by modernisation, sitting in an exquisite and rural part of Devon, on the verges of a shady, forested valley. It lies on the road to Black Dog and Thelbridge, 4 miles north of the market town of Crediton. Kennerleigh has a traditional style village shop/ post office – that stocks a diverse range of items and local produce. In addition, it features a wonderful example of a Norman church. A short drive away finds the larger village of Sandford, and one of finest pubs in the county; The Lamb Inn – with many accolades, mouth watering food and proper (job!) ales (and an open fire with the odd Jack Russell trotting about). For a modern selection of facilities Crediton is the place, with superb schools (both primary and secondary), a regular farmers market, a leisure centre, a host of interesting shops and two supermarkets.
