Thorn cottages are tucked away in a private lane near the centre of Combe in Teignhead. No 2 is the oldest of the three cottages and some of the structure is purported to date back to the late medieval period. Features include huge oak beams, exposed stonework and a stunning centrepiece fireplace. Despite the age and character, the accommodation is free flowing and very useable, all the rooms being well proportioned. The property has been a family home and more recently used as a successful holiday let. Historically the lower part of the cottage may well have housed animals, but it s far too luxurious for this now. If you are looking for a well maintained and presented cottage in one of Teignbridge s premier villages with balanced accommodation and outside space, call to find out more and arrange a viewing.

Accommodation

2 Thorn Cottages is accessed across a private lane where the owner enjoys an informal arrangement to park one vehicle. The cottages is double fronted with a central front door opening into an access area suitable for boots etc. and onwards into an up to date and well equipped kitchen with substantial granite topped breakfast bar. Cooking while you are entertaining is certainly on the cards here. There are lovely character features in the kitchen but those in the living room are exceptional; the rich carpentry includes a chamfered lintel and crossbeam and the stone fireplace with inset log burner is exceptionally good. The first floor landing is light and airy and both of the characterful double bedrooms have unique and interesting features. The bathroom offers all modern amenities but is tastefully in keeping with the cottage. Adjacent to the back door there is a useful utility and storage area. The private rear courtyard has decked and patio areas and there is a useful outside WC. Both the location and this cottage are highly recommended by the selling agent.
