Description:
A modern detached house on the edge of this sought after village with large gardens enjoying wonderful views. 3 bedrooms, 1 reception room, kitchen/diner, bathroom. PP for extension and garage. Extensive parking. Large gardens. Ability to rent paddock.
SITUATION
Middle Cross Cottage is situated on the edge of the sought after village of Lustleigh, which lies on the fringe of the Dartmoor National Park, the property itself backing onto farmland. Lustleigh has an excellent range of local facilities including church, modern village hall with many activities, as well as a cricket field, dairy/general store with post office facility, tea rooms and well regarded Cleave Inn. Lustleigh lies in a valley surrounded by some of the most picturesque landscape within the National Park with fabulous walking. The town of Bovey Tracey, which has an extensive range of local facilities, is only 3 miles (with bus service from Lustleigh). Just beyond Bovey is the A38 trunk road which leads into Cornwall in the west and Exeter and the M5 motorway to the east.
DESCRIPTION
Middle Cross Cottage, built in 2000 for the present owners, offers cottage-style accommodation set within large gardens and with extensive parking, and adjoining fields (which are available to rent). The house is of colourwashed elevations under a slate roof and has oil-fired central heating and double glazed timber windows. Planning permission granted, by Dartmoor National Park in November 2010 (Ref:0483/10), for an extension to provide a large entrance hall with cloakroom, plus garage over which would be a master bedroom with wardrobes and an ensuite shower room.
Front door to ENTRANCE HALL with staircase to first floor, INNER LOBBY giving access to the SITTING ROOM which is a wonderful triple aspect room with a period-style fireplace surround with inset multi-fuel stove. Attractive outlook over the gardens and beyond over farmland to the wooded hills beyond. The KITCHEN/DINING ROOM are now combined (though previously were divided). This is a dual aspect room with stable-type door to the garden. Once again attractive views in two directions. The kitchen end is fitted with a range of base cupboard and drawer units under extensive worktops with inset sink unit plus space and plumbing for washing machine. Oil-fired combi boiler. Space for cooker and fridge. Range of matching wall cupboards. Recessed ceiling lights. The shower room has a shower cubicle with electric shower, basin with vanity unit and wc.
The cottage-style staircase leads to the landing with airing cupboard and slatted shelving. BEDROOM 1 has two deep storage cupboards with hanging rails and enjoys attractive views. Part sloping ceiling. BEDROOM 2 is another double room with eaves storage cupboards. Attractive views. Part sloping ceiling. BEDROOM 3 is a single room with views across to the wooded hills in the other direction. The BATHROOM has a panelled bath with shower over, basin in vanity unit and wc. Recess with space and plumbing for washing machine.
OUTSIDE
The grounds of the property are a particular feature, being approached over a private shared gravelled lane through a double five bar gate, and with the property's own drive leading down to the house. On either side of this drive are grass verges with ample space for extra parking or for further vegetable garden areas if required. There is a second vehicular access via gates from the village lane direct onto a chipping parking area with a path to the front door.
The main drive leads to a turning and parking space at the side of the house where there is a heather bank and shrubbery. Beyond the parking area is a large level lawn with post and rail boundaries and at the far end is a raised deck which enjoys wonderful views back to the house and beyond to the wooded valley. Also at the front of the house is an enclosed sitting out area with shrubs and chipping base. To the side of the house is a further lawned area, GARDEN SHED (6'4' x 6'7') plus WORKSHOP (7' x 7') both with light and power. Oil tank behind fencing. At the other end of the house is a brick paved patio with loggia, climbing plants and further garden area at the rear of the house backing onto a pasture field, from where wonderful views are enjoyed back across to the wooded hillside on the far side of the village.
