A charming and extended period cottage, set in the heart of a tranquil South Dartmoor hamlet. EPC Band: D.
Situation - Nestled in the heart of the tiny and tranquil hamlet of Sigford, enjoying a peaceful setting surrounded by the extensive Dartmoor countryside. The area offers immediate access to walks, rides and open moorland, perfect for those seeking an active rural lifestyle. Just two miles to the southeast is the bustling moorland town of Ashburton, with a superb range of independent shops, artisan food outlets, and excellent schooling. The A38 dual carriageway is within easy reach at nearby Caton, placing Exeter, Plymouth and the wider South Devon region within convenient commuting distance.
Description - Little Sigford Cottage forms the centre of a picturesque row of three stone-built cottages, tucked below the quiet lane and enjoying lovely views across surrounding fields and wooded slopes. The cottage has been tastefully extended and updated, blending traditional features with modern-day comforts. Notable highlights include a granite fireplace with wood-burning stove, exposed stonework and ceiling beams, and a smartly fitted kitchen-dining room.
Accommodation - A spacious entrance hall with timber panelling and wood-style flooring leads into the main living room, a cosy and welcoming space featuring a granite fireplace with wood-burner, a ceiling beam and window seat overlooking the front. Beyond lies the well-equipped kitchen-dining room with a stylish range of white gloss units, distressed wood-effect worktops and Beko range cooker with LPG hob. A door leads to the rear yard and store.
