Petrockstowe, Okehampton, Devon, EX20

The property offers external elevations of colour wash render under a slate roof.

From the car parking a path leads to a covered entrance porch. Stepping into the sitting room you get a real sense of the character and quirkiness of this lovely home. Within the sitting room is found a raised fireplace recess with slate hearth that would be ideal for a log burner. A straight run of stairs leads to the first floor having plenty of storage under. The rear wall has a wonderful slope to it as can be seen by the angle of the sockets! Running across the back of the cottage is a good sized kitchen/breakfast room with two distinct areas at one end having space for a table and chairs with a part glazed door leading out into the sun trap rear courtyard garden. At the other end is found a range of wall floor and drawer units with associated work surfaces and under counter appliance space. Appliances include a four ring electric hob, with electric oven under and extractor above. An oil fired combi boiler proves for heating and hot water.

At the top of stairs is a small landing leading to a double bedroom, with built in illuminated cupboard, on the western side overlooking the front whilst the smaller of the two bedrooms, complete with eaves storage is found on the eastern side overlooking the rear garden. The bedroom window offers views to the distance across the neighbouring garden. Finishing off the accommodation is a shower room comprising corner shower, wash hand basin and close couple WC.

Outside
The westerly facing front garden is gravelled with minimalist planting of a hydrangea and palm. The low maintenance rear garden enjoys an easterly and southerly orientation and comprises a good sized patio, ideal for el fresco entertaining, edged by gravel borders and wood panel fencing.
