About
A charming Grade II listed Duke of Bedford cottage in Tavistock.
Conveniently situated close to the town centre and Meadowlands park, as well as nearby supermarkets and a good bus route, this two double bedroom cottage retains many character features including original beams, exposed stone walls and fireplace and is a great opportunity for someone looking to live in Tavistock in a highly sought after property.
Downstairs is a cosy sitting room including an original fireplace that would be ideal for a log burner with an archway opening into a kitchen/dining room, which has plenty of units and some original built in cupboards.
There is a useful utility/boot room and a modern bathroom with quality fittings that was completely refurbished when the current owner purchased the property.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms which are both bright and spacious.
The property has recently been refreshed with new plastering, decorating, external fascias and roof work, that are all in keeping with the style of the original property.
Externally the main garden is to the front and is mostly laid to lawn with a patio area at the end.
To the rear is a courtyard with an outbuilding that is currently used for storage but would make the ideal development opportunity into a home office or studio (STPP).
Please note there is a right of way across both the front and back of the cottages.
