A Grade II Listed Georgian/early Victorian style semi detached cottage. Located in the popular district of Alphington Exeter, just a short distance from the City Centre, Alphington Primary, Bow Hill & West Exe Schools, local supermarkets, post office, pubs and country park. Easy access to M5 & A30.
A charming, grade 2 listed character cottage, with three bedrooms, a balcony, garage, parking and a courtyard garden, conveniently located a short distance from the local supermarket and shops, in the city of Exeter, with easy access to the City Centre.
This charming property is believed to have been originally constructed in the 18th century and later extended into what is now a spacious family home, with period features including low ceilings with exposed timbers and a wonderful, curved bay window.
The accommodation briefly comprises, an entrance hallway, with a staircase to the first floor and a built-in cupboard, a ground floor bedroom, which is a decent single with dual-aspect windows; this would also make a great study, ideal for those working from home. A spacious extended kitchen/dining room, that has loads of worktop and cupboard space, a range cooker providing the excellent cooking facilities, a separate gas hob, floor space for an upright fridge/freezer and space with plumbing for a washing machine and another appliance, and the boiler, beside the range, provides the central heating. There is a convenient ground floor cloakroom with a WC and basin, and a spacious living room with a living-flame gas fire that makes a nice focal point for the room, and a superb, curved bay window that is a wonderful period feature, and has a pleasant outlook over the courtyard.
Upstairs, a spacious landing makes a great alternative study area, and there are two further generously proportioned bedrooms, both excellent doubles, one with a wall of built-in wardrobes and an airing cupboard containing an insulated hot water cylinder, and French doors open out onto the balcony, with a wrought-iron balustrade that makes a fabulous space to enjoy the summer sunshine.
Outside, the paved courtyard garden is divided into two areas by a raised bed and is adorned in a mature wisteria, stunning when in bloom, and is fully enclosed making it safe for both children and pets. The more secluded area is accessed through a wonderful gothic archway and makes a fabulous private space for entertaining, be it alfresco dining or a barbecue. The second area has more space for seating and ample parking for at least two cars in front of the single garage, which has an up and over door. A double gate provides access to the driveway, for which the property has right of way access. Additional parking is on-road if required.
