Asking price
Situated in the heart of the idyllic Devonshire village named Westleigh is this charming, picture postcard 2 Bedroom thatched cottage. It is within a short walk of all village amenities and it is close to the popular Tarka Trail and the coastal village of Instow. This home has been very well kept and features a charming Sitting Room with a wood burning stove, a Kitchen with adjoining Dining Room and an upstairs Shower Room. To the rear of the property is a generous lawned garden that enjoys spectacular views of the Estuary. The garden would suit a Summerhouse from which the views could be enjoyed. There are also various stone-built Outbuildings that are of a good size which could be utilised in various ways. In the right hands, and with a few minor alterations, this property would make a stunning permanent or holiday residence. We would recommend a viewing so that you can see the potential for yourself.
