This elegant grade II listed three bedroom cottage sits in the hub of the historic village of Silverton. Thoughtfully restored by its current owners, the finish complements the property’s historic structure and texture throughout, bringing new life to a property that dates back to the 16th century. With an outlook towards St Mary’s Church and the village square, the setting ensures you are planted firmly into the buoyant village lifestyle and community.
The layout
Stepping into the cottage off School Road and into the entrance hallway, you’re met by the stairs to the first floor as well as the door into the sitting room. In here, you immediately notice the plentiful character features, with the beams above and fabulous feature fireplace and wood burner ahead. Continuing through, past one of many window seats in the cottage, you emerge into the dining room — complete with its curved walls and another feature fireplace. One of the two doors to the garden is found in the dining room, with the second in the recently fitted kitchen. Here, the beamed ceilings re emerge to provide the perfect blend of the old and the new. A social space, the kitchen is a wonderful spot to spend time as you enjoy the picturesque outlook down the garden.
Upstairs, a light filled corridor runs the length of the property down to the main bedroom. Along the way are the two further bedrooms and the modern but befitting shower room. A small and secretive door takes you up to the office on the second floor. This cosy nook is a real hidden gem, providing a perfect quiet space as well as a great vantage point over the village comings and goings.
Outside
A vibrant and colourful garden runs away from the cottage, with the parking / courtyard area at the forefront. The vehicular access is through double gates, opening in off School Road. Beyond, continuing away from the property, there are two ponds, an array of flowers and plants — including Wisteria and Magnolia — and the tulip lined pathway takes you up to the garden room. In a picturesque position, it provides alternative office space but is also perfect for enjoying the evening sun as it sets back behind the cottage.
The village
Silverton is located on the commuter friendly side of Exeter—as well as being handily located for access to Exeter airport and both Exeter St. David's and Tiverton Parkway train stations—and is thought to be one of the oldest villages in Devon. It continues to be an extremely sought after village as it provides the fantastic combination of the 'village lifestyle' whilst also being well connected to the city of Exeter. Amenities in the village itself are exceptional, with a brilliant Doctor's surgery, convenience store, post office, primary school and two pubs.
