Location, location, location! This elevated residence boasts one of the most desirable and picturesque spots in Miltown, Muddiford. With sweeping views of Muddiford Valley, it's conveniently close to Marwood Primary School and the local village pub, as well as just a short drive to Barnstaple or Ilfracombe. The bus route at the bottom of the hill provides easy access to these towns as well.

Upon arrival, the undeniable curb appeal of this cottage is enhanced by its stunning front elevation and practical parking arrangements, set back from a no-through road. The current owners have made considerable improvements, including the addition of fully owned solar panels (with fixed tariff till 2035), a refitted kitchen and utility area, a Worcester Bosch oil combi boiler (installed in 2022), and tasteful cosmetic updates throughout.

Inside, Venwood Cottage retains original features such as an inglenook fireplace, a log burner, and beautiful wooden beams, along cottage style UPVC double-glazed windows throughout that frame stunning views from every room.

As you step through the front door, you're welcomed by a spacious hallway that grants access to all living areas and stairs leading to the first floor. The dining room/snug overlooks the front elevation and features steps that lead up to the main lounge, which boasts a log burner set in a stone surround. Both rooms offer ample floor space for large sofas, side tables, and freestanding storage units.

The ground floor also houses a newly fitted kitchen, complete with matching wall and base units accommodating an eye level double fan oven and an induction hob. All alongside plenty of worktop space for preparing the evening meal on Quartz work-surfaces throughout. The kitchen also boasts space and plumbing for a dishwasher, American style fridge freezer, washing machine and tumble dryer if desired.

The kitchen seamlessly connects to the conservatory, which comfortably accommodates a six-seater dining table—perfect for enjoying morning coffee with a view. French doors lead back to the front elevation, ensuring the conservatory remains bright and airy. 

The first floor features three spacious double bedrooms and a further single/study, alongside the main family bathroom and double door storage cupboard on the landing. The master bedroom currently accommodates a king-size bed and freestanding wardrobes, with a convenient vanity wash basin, creating a relaxing retreat. The second and third bedrooms are also generously sized, each housing double beds and freestanding furniture. The main bathroom has been fitted to a high standard, featuring a four-piece suite with a low-level WC, walk-in shower, wash basin, and a luxurious roll-top bath.

Outside, the next lucky owners can relish privacy in the walled patio garden adjacent to the main house, with handy outside WC (perfect for those summer afternoons in the garden). From the patio area, steps lead to a rear plot that is both level and secluded. Hidden gardens are scattered throughout, offering various seating areas, lawn sections, and patios, as well as a large greenhouse, garden shed, and additional potting shed—all showcasing stunning individual views over the valley.

Throughout this established plot, you'll not only enjoy breathtaking views but also a variety of mature plants, trees, and shrubs that all bloom beautifully all year-round. This home enjoys additional plots of land surrounding Milltown Hill with a large insulated metal shed towards the base of the Milltown Hill. 

This character cottage also benefits from a larger than single garage adjacent to the main entrance with electric roller doors, LED lighting and a mezzanine storage area, perfect for anyone with a classic car or looking for a workshop.
