Set on an elevated position at the top of Mill Street, this end-of-terrace Victorian cottage offers commanding Torridge Valley views and a large southerly garden designed for sun, privacy and alfresco living. The ground floor flows from a cosy sitting room to a generous dining area and bright garden room, creating flexible living space for family life or home working. Solar panels and gas central heating reduce running costs, and the property includes a garage and off-road parking for practical convenience.
Accommodation includes two well-proportioned upstairs bedrooms, a family bathroom and a versatile ground-floor occasional bedroom or study with French doors to the courtyard. The kitchen is fitted with wooden units and there is a contemporary ground-floor shower room with plumbing for laundry. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and an airing cupboard adds useful storage.
The attractive southerly garden is a standout feature: level lawn, terraced beds, multiple seating areas, greenhouses, a powered shed and direct access to Torrington Commons. There is scope to extend the house (subject to planning permission), offering potential to increase space or improve value. Excellent mobile signal, proximity to the town centre and good local schools add to the property’s appeal.
Buyers should note a couple of legal/structural points: the garden’s far end is held under a signed statutory declaration from 2002, and the garage was previously subdivided to create an additional room — an indemnity policy will be offered. Broadband speeds are average and, as a pre-1900 building, some traditional maintenance should be expected.
