Description

This former mill house sits on the outskirts of this small quiet rural village enjoying approximately three acres of pasture, woodland and gardens. There is ample parking for several vehicles. Internally the cottage offers a spacious living room with woodburning stove set into and inglenook styled fireplace. There is a generous kitchen dining room, off which is a small rear hall in turn leading to a generous conservatory extension to the rear. On the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom.

To the front and side is ample parking for numerous vehicles and a drive runs down past the side of the cottage to the outbuildings at the rear. There is space to create a small paddock around the buildings and beyond this a five bar gate leads to a further enclosed paddock. Above these two areas lies a stretch of woodland that also goes with the property. To the front and side are pleasant formal gardens and steps leading up through a small orchard area into a further small paddock which has a separate road access gate.

The village of Cookbury is a delightful rural village surrounded by open countryside and a wide selection of ferestry for country or woodland walks. The nearby towns of Holswortyh and Okehampton are both easliy accessible by car, as is the A30 corridor some 20 to 25 minutes drive away. The North coast and coastal town of Bude is also about 20 to 25 minutes drive away offering sandy beeches, surfing and coastal walks.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Planning map: Flood Zone 3, about 10 metres away.

Surface water
