Pines Corner, Cullompton, EX15 3JX

*Watch the Video Tour* A traditional, period, semi-detached cottage requiring some updating, lying in a convenient location on the outskirts of Culmstock.

With a large, detached garden, perfect for country living, some hens and fruit and vegetable production.

Pines Corner is named after the distinct Scot’s pine trees in front of it and has a pretty honeysuckle arch and path leading to the front door.

The original cottage is believed to date back around 300 years and was significantly extended around 1985 to provide extra bedrooms, living space and an enclosed, walled garden for a growing family.

The cottage offers very comfortable, much loved accommodation which has recently had a new roof and additional insulation to the original part, improving the warmth of the stone and cob walls, and with a wood burner in the sitting room is very cosy in the winter, yet nice and cool in the hot summer months.

The kitchen is the social hub of the accommodation and is fitted in an original oak style with ample cupboard storage, work surface, an integrated double oven with ceramic hob and extractor hood over, and space for appliances.

There is also space for a large dining table and chairs and from the kitchen, the utility room, with cloakroom to one side, leads to the rear garden.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, two doubles with fitted wardrobes and two singles, one of which is used as a TV room but would also make a useful home office.

The family bathroom has a separate bath and shower cubicle and whilst functional, is ready to be modernised to taste.

Adjoining the cottage, there is a walled garden, laid to lawn, with a gate leading out to the road and side access.

A short step from the cottage, across the road, there is an area of detached garden, approximately 0.1 acres, which has been used principally for vegetable and soft fruit production over the years and has some sheds which require repair or replacement.
