About this property

Charming Three-Bedroom Period Cottage Close to Lympstone Village

Situated within easy walking distance of the heart of Lympstone village, this attractive three-bedroom cottage offers character, charm and well-proportioned accommodation throughout. The village centre, railway station, local shop, cafés and popular pubs including The Swan, The Globe Inn and The Redwing Inn are all conveniently nearby.

Full of period features, the property retains much of its original character, including stripped wooden floorboards, picture rails, working fireplaces and an oil-fired Aga that forms a focal point of the kitchen.

The ground floor provides two generous reception rooms. The sitting room enjoys a bright bay window to the front aspect and features a brick-built fireplace with an open fire, picture rails and ample space for seating. The separate dining room overlooks the garden and offers further character with stripped floorboards, an open fireplace, useful under-stairs storage, fitted alcove cupboards and access through to the kitchen.

The kitchen/breakfast room is a practical and sociable space with windows to three aspects, allowing plenty of natural light. Fitted with a traditional butler sink and wooden work surfaces, there is space for a washing machine, dishwasher and freestanding fridge/freezer, as well as additional furniture such as a dresser. The oil-fired Aga takes pride of place within the room, creating a wonderful cottage feel. A useful side porch provides additional storage for coats and footwear.

On the first floor are two spacious double bedrooms and a third single bedroom. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect with attractive countryside views and features an ornate fireplace. The second bedroom is another comfortable double, while the third bedroom would make an ideal child's room, nursery or home office and overlooks the rear garden.

The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a bath with shower over, pedestal wash basin and WC, complemented by extensive wall tiling and natural light from two windows.

Outside, the rear garden is arranged over different levels, with steps leading to a lawned area. Additional benefits include side access, storage sheds and an external brick-built cupboard. A further side garden offers a private seating area and extra storage space.

To the front, the garden is mainly paved for ease of maintenance and is enclosed by established shrubs and planting, creating an attractive approach to the property.

A delightful period home combining character features, village convenience and attractive outdoor space in one of East Devon's most sought-after locations.

Please note that an AML fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead.
