On a level block of 1012 sq metres, only a few steps away from the fabulous Exeter General Store, post office and the railway station, sits this quintessential, picture book weatherboard cottage.

With a shady bullnose front verandah and private cottage garden positioned behind a lush laurel hedge. Lovely old beauties like this do not come onto the market very often. Currently a popular holiday let, this traditional cottage with a modern twist features polished floorboards and high pressed metal ceilings.

From the wide entrance hall there are three good sized bedrooms at the front of the house and a cosy formal sitting room with a gas log Rinnai fireplace in the middle.

The spacious new bathroom features travertine floors, Carrara marble topped vanity, electric wall panel heater, classic subway tiles and a stunning two tone, black and white freestanding bath and there is a separate w.c.

The large contemporary kitchen has 30mm Carara marble counter tops, a fabulous freestanding gas range and dishwasher. Flowing from the kitchen area is the open plan dining and living area. Two sets of French doors open to the paved patio overlooking the pretty garden with vine covered trellis and fabulous open fireplace, great for those crisp highland evenings.
