3 Bedroom End of Terrace House for sale in Chulmleigh

2 3 1

Set back from the A377 close to the villages of Eggesford and Chawleigh, this charming stone cottage is one of just four former Earl of Portsmouth properties, set in a lovely rural position with open countryside views and easy access to both Crediton and Chulmleigh. Despite its setting, the location is well connected. The A377 for road links, while Eggesford station on the Tarka Line provides a useful rail connection, and nearby Eggesford Forest offers fantastic walks right on the doorstep.

The cottage itself is very much a home with potential. It is perfectly liveable as it stands but would benefit from some cosmetic updating, giving a new owner the chance to put their own stamp on it and create something really special. With the space on offer, both inside and out, it represents excellent value for money.

On the ground floor, there is a comfortable living room with a wood burner that not only provides a cosy focal point but also runs the radiators and hot water (with immersion heater as back up). There is a kitchen and a separate dining room, along with a useful rear lean-to providing utility space and a covered store, ideal for pets or additional storage.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the front two enjoying a pleasant outlook over the surrounding countryside.

Outside, the property really comes into its own. There is parking for three to four vehicles, a garage and three stone outbuildings, offering plenty of storage. The gardens are positioned to the front and provide a generous amount of outdoor space, with open views and a real sense of countryside living.

The property benefits from a private, treated and tested water supply along with private drainage, meaning there are no mains water bills, and it is connected to mains electricity with the option to switch to a generator if required.
