Full Details for 3 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Crediton, EX17 :
The Cottage is a Grade II Listed semi-detached village property situated in the quiet rural village of Coldridge, approximately 20 minutes drive from Crediton. The property, believed to date back to 1808, is of traditional stone and cob construction under a thatched roof with a more recent single storey extension encompassing the Kitchen/Breakfast Room and the Bathroom all with rendered and colour washed elevations. Internally The Cottage benefits from all the character features one would expect from a property of this period including an exposed stone fireplace in the Sitting Room with the original bread oven to one side, heavy beamed ceilings throughout and pretty lead light cottage windows. The property also benefits from an oil-fired stove in the Sitting Room providing domestic hot water and servicing radiators. Although in reasonable condition throughout The Cottage now requires some general improvement including updating the Kitchen and Bathroom and redecorating and re-carpeting throughout. Outside and to the front of the property there is a pretty cottage garden, whilst at the rear there is a larger enclosed lawned garden, creating a really super feature. The Cottage also benefits from off-road parking for one car situated at the side of the Kitchen extension.
