About
Description A charming two bedroom end of terrace thatched cottage located in the sought after village of Brampford Speke, a picturesque setting on the outskirts of Exeter.
Believed to date back over 300 years, this beautiful home is bursting with character whilst benefiting from thoughtful modern upgrades for energy efficiency.
The cosy living / dining room is full of charm with underfloor heating and an attractive wood burner creating a wonderful focal point.
Leading from the reception space is a rustic fitted kitchen, perfectly in keeping with the cottage's character. The ground floor also benefits from a modern fitted shower room / WC.
Upstairs there are two generous double bedrooms, both enjoying a wealth of character and natural light.
Outside, the property continues to impress with a recently built fully insulated garden room complete with electricity, separate access door and window, making it the ideal home office, studio or hobbies room.
To the front is a pretty cottage garden, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee, whilst to the rear there is a private and enclosed sunny garden accessed directly from the garden room.
The current owner has recently added solar panels to the roof along with modern Dimplex storage heaters to improve the property's energy efficiency.
We have also been made aware that the back and ridge of the thatch was replaced by a local thatcher approximately two years ago.
