Taw View Cottage represents an extensive and versatile detached country residence enjoying a delightful south facing setting nestled in the Taw Valley with superb countryside views. The house, which has been in the current vendors occupation for over 30 years, is believed to date in part from the mid 1800’s and was formerly two railway cottages that have later been amalgamated and extended to create one substantial family home. With the adaptable accommodation, it is thought that the property may provide scope for the creation of an annexe/dual occupancy or bed and breakfast type business, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

The well-proportioned light and airy accommodation briefly comprises on the ground floor, an entrance porch with cloakroom, hallway, large triple aspect living room, kitchen, separate dining room, breakfast/utility room, study/ground floor bedroom and a rear entrance hall. The first floor provides five good sized bedrooms (master with en-suite bathroom) and a family bathroom. From the kitchen, stairs lead down to the very useful cellar divided in to four large store rooms.

The property is approached off the A377 via a private entrance drive providing parking for up to four cars which leads to the large triple garage/workshop. Superb extensive enclosed gardens are situated to the side and rear of the property, principally laid to lawn containing a variety of paved patios, well stocked flower and shrub beds, pretty Pergola together with a useful range of outbuildings. The gardens enjoy a good degree of privacy, and seclusion creating an ideal environment for children, pets and outdoor entertaining. In total the property extends to about 0.62 acres.
