7, Sunnydale, Ivybridge, PL21 0EE

Christopher’s South Hams are thrilled to present this utterly enchanting 2-bedroom cottage in the heart of Bittaford village.

Description: Aptly sitting at the end of Sunnydale terrace, this truly charming home perfectly exploits being within walking distance of the moors as well as delighting in far reaching views towards Dartmoor.

Whilst there is no designated parking to this cottage, a cute little lawn and walled frontage leads you to the front door and straight into the sitting room with its cosy log burner.

Beyond this is the kitchen with a fitted breakfast bar and plentiful storage including a walk-in larder. There are integrated appliances as well as space and plumbing for a washing machine.

A farmhouse style stable door invites you to the rear patio and garden. Stairs lead from the sitting room to the family bathroom and two bedrooms, one of which benefits from a built-in wardrobe.

All rooms from the rear of the house share in enjoying the views and there are original features including some exposed beams all adding to the character and age of this home.

To the rear is a block-built shed/store which can be accessed via the kitchen or side gravel pathway.

Adjacent to the shed is a newly laid patio/terrace ideally positioned to take advantage of the views.

A further stepped pathway guides you down through the south-west facing lawned garden which in turn invites you to another seating area, tucked away and an excellent space to take in the last of the day’s light, perhaps even hidden away with the warmth of a chimnea, a good book and a glass of something!

This cottage has been lovingly renovated to include internal and external decoration, new boiler, new kitchen and bathroom and new carpet and radiators upstairs.

It brilliantly blends contemporary and character and would make a very special home for a first-time buyer or those looking to downsize and thoroughly immerse into the landscape of Dartmoor.
