A detached three-bedroom thatched cottage offering a wealth of characterful accommodation with exceptional views across the surrounding Devon countryside. The property benefits from a detached one-bedroom annexe and several outbuildings and enjoys beautiful gardens that extend to just under half an acre. The cottage lies in a popular village in the desirable Exe Valley, just four miles north of Exeter.

On the ground floor, the entrance hall leads to two beautifully presented reception rooms of similar proportions, currently used as a sitting room and drawing room. Both benefit from south-facing aspects with plenty of natural light, as well as impressive original fireplaces fitted with wood burning stoves. From the sitting room there is access to the conservatory which features three sets of French doors that open onto the garden and offer panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. The ground floor also includes a useful study that adjoins a utility, a formal dining room and a well-equipped kitchen, with shaker-style fitted units, terracotta floor tiles, a split butler sink and a range cooker. The kitchen also features exposed timber beams overhead and French doors that open onto a terrace. A cloakroom completes the accommodation on the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned double bedrooms including a generous principal suite with built-in storage and an en suite shower room fitted with dual washbasins and a walk-in rainfall shower. The first floor also has a family bathroom with an over-bath shower.

The detached annexe provides further attractive and versatile accommodation, featuring an additional bedroom complete with an en suite shower room. Ideal for multi-generational living or guest accommodation, the annexe provides a flexible space to suit a variety of needs.

The house is set on a generous plot with gardens extending to just under half an acre. The entrance for vehicles is at the rear, where five-bar wooden gates open to a driveway with parking space for several cars, and access to the detached carport, workshop and store. The garden at the rear has an area of lawn bordered by mature trees and hedgerows, with a garden office at the end of the plot, which has bi-fold doors opening to a deck that overlooks the surrounding fields. At the side of the house there is a large patio area for al fresco dining, while at the front, the garden includes further rolling lawns, mature trees, a vegetable garden with raised beds and a greenhouse.
