Christopher's South Hams are delighted to market this incredibly endearing semi-detached cottage in the popular rural hamlet of Yondertown, Lutton.

Description - Tucked away at the end of a shared pathway, pop through a gate to a courtyard framed by a traditional stone wall, established shrubbery and pretty roses giving this a quintessential 'chocolate-box' appeal.

Exceedingly picturesque with its double-fronted exterior beneath a slate roof and showcasing period features including beams, deep windowsills and thick walls, Backwater Cottage has been recently redecorated throughout offering a fresh and neutral pallete.
From the front door, the country-cottage kitchen welcomes you and makes clever use of its bijou space with a range of cupboards and space for a dining table.
The bright and airy sitting room retains its cosiness with a log-burner taking centre-stage within a large stone and slate hearth.
Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms - a double and a generous single and a modern, well-appointed shower room completes the accommodation.

Outside, the courtyard is laid to patio with space for an array of tubs and pot-plants to bring bursts of colour and make this a very personalised, private space. In addition, the owners of the cottage have a pedestrian right of way through another gate that leads to the access path if needed. There is also a separate stone-shed ideal for storage.

Incredibly engaging and offered with no onward chain, there is little to spoil the charm of this 'backwater'; a fabulous retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

Agent Note: Whilst this cottage sits in a flood-risk area, our vendors report no knowledge of a history of flooding to the property.

Situation & Amenities - Surrounded by beautiful countryside, Yondertown is a former mining hamlet located in an Area of Great Landscape Value on the edge of Dartmoor National Park and has close connections with the small community-focussed hamlet of Lutton that sits against the backdrop of the 13th century St. Mary's Church and the nearby village of Cornwood.
Divided by the Dartmoor National Park, Yondertown lies adjacent to the village of Cornwood, 1 mile away. Sitting above the River Yealm valley this was once part of an important trading route which carried tin, wool and cattle between Tavistock and Totnes giving it a rich South Hams history. The Cornwood Inn is community-owned serving food and drinks and acts as a focal point for activities that bring people together. It is a hub for outdoor activities, such as walking or cycling, with somewhere to store your equipment and meet up before setting out or a warm welcome on your return. Cornwood also hosts a weekly, visiting post-office, whilst Yondertown entertains a mobile library every other Friday (at the time of writing). Alongside the ever popular and successful Cornwood Cricket Club, the village is also home to the church of St Michael and All Angels. The Church of England Primary School (with a pre-school on the same site) feeds into Ivybridge Community College with its World Class Quality Mark Award and fantastic sport facilities.
Further community facilities such as Health Centres, Dentists, Libraries, Supermarkets, Leisure Facilities and Transport Links can be found in nearby Ivybridge (4 miles) and the vibrant Waterfront City of Plymouth (10 miles) beyond.
