A fully refurbished and beautifully presented, period family home in this popular East Devon village, with good local amenities, including a thriving community shop and primary school. Quick access to the M5, Honiton and Tiverton Parkway Station, ideal for commuting.

This classic, stone built cottage was originally built in 1780 and more recently, was significantly extended in 1982 to provide the spacious family accommodation on offer today. During our clients' occupation, they have completely renovated the accommodation throughout in a sympathetic style with a light and welcoming atmosphere and plenty of space for a growing family.

On entering the property, there is a useful porch for kicking off shoes and boots and hanging coats, and this leads to the large dining room, with space for an impressive dining table, practical, black, limestone flag flooring and a wood burner to one side. Beyond, the utility room has an adjoining cloak room and a door to the rear courtyard garden. The kitchen is next door, fitted in a timeless oak style with granite work surfaces and Delabole slate tiled flooring, a handy dining bar with storage, and integral appliances, including a Bosch double electric oven and dishwasher and a four ring, DeDietrich induction hob.

The extended part of the house includes the large sitting room on the ground floor, with attractive feature brick and stone work around the fireplace, housing a wood burner for a lovely cosy warmth in the winter and adding to the comfort of the oil fired central heating.

Upstairs, the generous landing gives way to the principal bedroom with an adjoining dressing room with fitted wardrobes and a contemporary en suite shower room. The family bathroom is similarly fitted and tiled in an attractive style with a white suite, including a luxurious, free-standing bath, separate shower cubicle, vanity unit and WC.

Within the first floor extension, there are three further bedrooms, two doubles and a good sized single, all beautifully presented with some wonderful artwork and wallpaper for children.

Outside, Normans Cottage is approached from the lane via a gravel path running alongside the front lawn and the larger garden area, ideal for children to play. To one side, a bespoke playhouse with a cedar shingle wood makes a great den, with play equipment outside. A path leads beside the house to the rear courtyard garden, which is a good size and enjoys a sunny, southerly aspect, so a real suntrap in the summer and perfect for barbecues and entertaining. The adjoining studio has been used as a home office and gym but would make a great playroom, with an upstairs den or useful storage space.

From the garden, a personnel door leads into the rear of the garage, which is a modern building accessed from the adjoining small development of Sandersfield, and has parking to the fore. There is further parking on the lane at the front of the property and it is understood that the original planning consent for the extension included provision for a parking area in the corner of the front garden, for convenience. Please check this detail with Seddons and your solicitor.
