3 bed cottage for sale

Harpers Hill, Okehampton EX20

Description

Conveniently located a short walk from the village square, this detached residence is within walking distance to the village Inn, church, hall and primary school.

Typical with a Devonshire cottage of its era, we are cob construction underneath a thatched roof (which has been re thatched in recent years)

Measuring approximately 126 square meters of living accommodation, the spacious layout is quirky as to expect but it offers multiple reception rooms, WC facilities & utility area on entrance level which is completed with a useful work from home office / hobby room and dual aspect kitchen. To the first floor there are three bedrooms (two of which are large doubles) and a shower room.

Externally, this generous plot provides well tendered and thoughtfully created garden areas to enjoy along with a useful stone built outbuilding. From the gardens there are views towards Dartmoor and 'Yes Tor'. Subject to a sale, our vendors have viewed a property they would love to pursue further.
