About this property

… peacefully hidden down hedgerow lanes around 2 miles from the centre of Aveton Gifford, a detached, Grade II listed stone-built cottage. With 15th cent. origins and, later, in the family of Nelson, it’s now a smart and spacious home with all the benefits of modern insulation and underfloor heating, charmingly teamed with big oak beams, slate/oak floors and stylish furnishings. Behind, a pretty, enclosed garden with tiered lawned area (picnic bench), games barn (table tennis, table football) and covered arch (5’2” beam) to sheltered, courtyard area, lavender and rosemary-planted with a sunny Mediterranean feel and small deck (table/chairs).  

From the gravelled drive, 3 steps up to front door to hall (space for coats/boots); huge open-plan length-of-house living/dining/kitchen with lime-washed walls, partially vaulted ceiling and exposed apex beams: at one end, sofas/chairs comfortably seating 5, woodburner,  study area (desk) and stable doors to garden; at the other, superb dining/kitchen area (dishwasher, microwave, large larder fridge, electric range-style cooker) with freestanding oak units, island with breakfast bar (stools for 3) and utility room (washing machine, tumble drier, fridge-freezer,  additional fridge and freezer). Small glazed doors open to courtyard (5’ head height) from kitchen and utility room. Also on the ground floor, three bedrooms – a double (5’ bed, footboard), a twin (footboards), and a family room with bunks and single day bed (footboard). Bathroom (suite with roll-top bath with hand-shower) and smart limestone-tiled shower-room (wet-room suite). Open tread oak stairs to first-floor and impressive living room (woodburner, TV/DVD), light and airy with high apex beams, big comfy sofas seating 8 and, at one end, a double bed (curtains for privacy). Best for maximum of 7 adults. Spring water. A peaceful, rural spot, just a few minutes’ drive from south Devon’s stunning coastline and a selection of lovely beaches and villages.
