Positioned in the heart of Milton Abbot, with breathtaking views across the surrounding countryside, this stunning period cottage has been beautifully maintained and thoughtfully modernised. Believed to be one of the oldest original properties in the village, dating back to circa 1805, the cottage retains its historic character and charm while benefiting from contemporary upgrades.
The light-filled accommodation is arranged over two floors and is warmed by a modern gas combi boiler, offering a perfect blend of traditional elegance and modern comfort. On the ground floor, an entrance porch welcomes you into a spacious living and dining room, complete with a charming log-burning stove, creating a cosy focal point. The dining kitchen is generously proportioned, ideal for family meals or entertaining, while the extended family room or home office opens through bi-fold doors onto a covered BBQ and sun deck, offering a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en-suite cloakroom, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom. The cottage also benefits from a stone-built outbuilding featuring a vaulted ceiling, light, power, and a WC, providing versatile space for a studio, workshop, or additional storage.
Externally, the south-facing garden is a true sun trap, perfect for relaxing or entertaining, and there is convenient access to the front of the property. The cottage is set back behind a charming fore garden with a driveway providing off-road parking for two vehicles, completing this exceptional home.
The current owners rent an additional adjoining garden from Milton Abbot Village Hall, where the swings are currently located. While this garden is not included in the sale, it may be available by separate negotiation for the new owners to also rent this area.
