Situation September Cottage is situated in the popular village of Chittlehamholt. The village has an award winning pub, The Exeter Inn, a community shop and village hall. On the southern outskirts of the village is the The Mole Resort which provides an excellent range of leisure facilities. The local market town of South Molton lies about 6 miles away and offers a good range of further amenities including schooling to secondary level and a multi-award winning pannier market. The larger regional centre of Barnstaple is about 13 miles and the Cathedral City of Exeter is about 28 miles to the south east.
Description September Cottage is an attractive detached period home believed to date back several centuries, occupying a mature plot of about a third of an acre. The property has been a much-loved family home for many years and retains a wealth of original character, including inglenook fireplaces, exposed beams and other period features throughout. Whilst well maintained, the house would now benefit from some updating, offering purchasers an excellent opportunity to modernise and personalise the accommodation to suit their own tastes. Outside, the mature and well-stocked gardens provide a high degree of privacy, complemented by private parking and a large detached garage/workshop.
Accommodation The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, extending to almost 2,500 square feet. An entrance porch opens directly into the characterful dining room, with its impressive inglenook fireplace. A wide opening leads through to the spacious sitting room which is another particularly attractive reception room, centred around a large inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove, whilst a separate snug provides a cosy additional living space. To the rear, the garden room has an outlook over the rear gardens. The well-proportioned kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of units and is complemented by a useful rear porch/boot room. A ground floor bathroom completes the ground floor.
On the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, together with a large family bathroom.
Outside To the right-hand side of the house, a private driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a large detached garage/workshop, offering excellent storage, workshop space or potential for a variety of uses.
Adjoining the rear of the house is a sheltered, paved patio, providing an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. The mature gardens are a particular feature of the property, being predominantly laid to lawn with well-stocked flower and shrub borders, together with a variety of mature trees creating a private and established setting. In all, the property occupies a mature plot of about a third of an acre.
