A picturesque cottage in the village of Cockington
Once derelict, this historic mill has been sensitively resurrected back to life as a two-bedroom haven in the heart of a quaint chocolate box village, a stone’s throw from Cockington Country Park. World famous as a preserved village of stone-coloured washed walls and thatched roofs, Cockington is a small village tucked away in a secluded wooded valley at the heart of the English Riviera. Enjoy Cockington Country Park less than 0.5 miles away, boasting three pretty ornamental lakes, a historic Manor House and a quaint 11th-century church. Explore Cockington village in miniature at Babbacombe Model Village 4 miles from the cottage, showcasing hundreds of uniquely hand-crafted model scenes set against 4 acres of award-winning gardens, plus a life-size mini golf course included in the entrance fee. Discover the atmospheric Georgian Greenway House (8 miles), former holiday home to Agatha Christie, situated in a romantic woodland garden curving down towards the River Dart.
The entrance hall welcomes you into the cottage and leads through to the well-presented open-plan ground floor, featuring excellent attention to detail as well as a hard wooden floor throughout. The living area is flooded with natural light by the latticed patio door, with comfortable sofas enjoying views overlooking the nearby river. Further through the space, you’re met with a large well-equipped contemporary kitchen boasting a wooden dining table and chairs. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious, lofted king-size bedroom featuring a viewing gallery mezzanine overlooking the lounge towards the fabulous surrounding countryside. At the other end of the upstairs, you’re met with a twin bedroom underneath the eaves of the cottage, featuring trundle beds, as well as a centrally positioned family bathroom with wonderful vaulted beamed ceiling and watery views towards the nearby lake.
Patio doors at the rear of the living area open out onto an enclosed patio garden with delightful views overlooking the river towards the rolling countryside beyond.
