2 Bed Cottage in Kingsteignton

About this property

This charming, tastefully renovated period stone cottage in Kingsteignton is ideal for couples, small families, dog lovers, walkers and cyclists. Perfectly positioned to explore South East Devon, it is close to shops, pubs, restaurants, parks and a 13th-century church, with Hackney Marshes Nature Reserve just 0.3 miles away and Newton Abbot Racecourse 0.5 miles away. Situated directly on the Stover Cycle Trail, it also offers easy access to National Cycle Routes 28 (Devon Coast to Coast) and National Cycle Route 2 (South Coast Route). Newton Abbot, with its wide range of shops, amenities and mainline railway station, is just 2 miles away. The beaches of Teignmouth, Shaldon and Dawlish are within 8 miles, while Dartmoor National Park is less than 7 miles away. Popular destinations including Ashburton, Totnes, Bovey Tracey, Dartmouth and Brixham are all within easy reach, alongside National Trust properties, country parks and the scenic steam railway and River Dart boat trips.

Inside the historic cottage, original features such as oak beams and exposed stone walls highlight its character, while modern comforts are conveniently blended throughout. Step in through the porch and hang up your coat before heading to the cosy lounge, where soft seating invites you to sit back, read, play games or watch your favourite film or show on the Smart TV. The dining room offers a solid oak table and six chairs, and there are two pretty arched seating nooks built into the wall. The well equipped kitchen provides everything necessary for your stay, including a small breakfast table and chairs. The large conservatory at the rear of the cottage, overlooking the tranquil garden, is another characterful space in which to unwind. For the perfect night’s sleep, head up the quaint staircase to find two beautifully-appointed bedrooms equipped with either Hypnos king-size bed or zip ‘n link super-king option. The king-size room has its own en-suite shower room, while the flexible 6’0 x 6’6” super-king/twin room has use of the family bathroom, with its Mediterranean-style natural stone tiling. The beautifully refurbished bathroom includes a tall rain shower and other ‘mod cons’, such as heated towel rail and a heated and backlit cabinet with shaver/toothbrush charging point.

A wonderful long, enclosed back garden offers a perfect spot to unwind on sunny days. Relax on the patio, with its table and seating for six, or settle at the wooden picnic table on the rear lawn, providing both peaceful surroundings and a perfect space for children to play. At the far end, a locked gate leads to a bridge over the leat (small stream) to Berry Lane, a pedestrian footpath that takes you one way to local pub and the other way to the 13th century picturesque church and mill. The property also benefits from private parking for one car, with on-street parking nearby (subject to availability).
