A beautifully positioned Grade II listed family home enjoying stunning views, delightful gardens and generous accommodation within the highly sought after village of Gittisham.
Description
Occupying an enviable position on the edge of the highly sought-after village of Gittisham, Winsor Cottage is an exceptionally attractive detached period home that has been sympathetically enhanced and beautifully maintained by the current owners. The property offers a wonderful balance of character and contemporary comfort, set within established gardens and enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding Devon countryside.
The accommodation is both spacious and versatile, arranged around an impressive reception hall which provides an elegant introduction to the house. The heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen/breakfast room, featuring a traditional Aga, shaker-style cabinetry and a Belfast sink perfectly positioned to take in views of the garden. There is ample space for informal dining and family gatherings, while a pantry, utility room and shower room provide excellent practicality.
The triple-aspect sitting room is a particularly charming reception space, rich in character with exposed ceiling beams, a bay window with window seat and an impressive fireplace incorporating a stone hearth, limestone mantel and wood-burning stove. A separate formal dining room overlooks the front garden and village beyond, providing an ideal setting for entertaining.
On the first floor, a handsome staircase rises to a generous landing which serves the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom enjoys a dual aspect and benefits from an en suite shower room. A second double bedroom also features en suite facilities and attractive exposed brick detailing. Two further double bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. All of the bedrooms enjoy delightful views over either the village or the surrounding countryside.
Gardens and grounds:
Winsor Cottage is approached via a private driveway providing ample parking and access to a double garage. The gardens measure just over half an acre and are predominantly laid to lawn, framed by mature planting and established borders, and enjoy uninterrupted views across open farmland and rolling countryside beyond.
To the front, a charming garden with mature shrubs and colourful borders is accessed via a winding pathway leading to the front entrance.
A detached stone outbuilding, currently utilised as a studio/workshop, offers excellent versatility and potential for a variety of alternative uses, subject to any necessary consents.
Location
Winsor Cottage is situated on the edge of the pretty village of Gittisham. With its excellent and highly regarded country house hotel and restaurant called The Pig, charming thatched and cob-walled cottages, Norman church and village green, set against a backdrop of hills and woodland, it is the quintessential English village.
Honiton is about 2.5 miles away and is well served with a range of local and specialist shops and amenities as well as primary and secondary schooling. The popular coastal resort of Sidmouth and the World Heritage coastline known as the Jurassic Coast is just over 8 miles to the south.
The A30 provides a fast route to Exeter and its international airport and the M5 to the west, while the A303 provides excellent access to the south east of England.
