Atway Cottages, Bovey Tracey TQ13

Dating back to 1525 this Grade II Listed thatched cottage is steeped in local history, being part of Atwell which was originally a hamlet on the edge of Bovey Tracey and still retains that rural feel, with far reaching views, yet gives easy access to the town centre and all local facilities.

A wooden stable door leads into the kitchen fitted with a range of cream fronted wall and base units with worktops over incorporating a one and half bowl sink with mixer tap above, an inset electric oven with induction hob and extractor hood. Spaces for a washing machine, slimline dishwasher and an upright fridge freezer. There are additional wall mounted units which are glazed fronted with complimentary lighting and attractive wall mounted display shelving.

An exposed stone fireplace with a large wooden lintel houses a wood burning stove, giving a warm and welcoming focal point to the room. To the right of the fireplace is a storage and display shelf housing the T.V, with further storage behind. Further cupboards have been beautifully crafted giving the room so much useful storage. Stairs lead to the first floor, each stair benefitting from complimentary lighting.

On the first floor are two double bedrooms, the principal of which benefits from a large multi paned window to the front overlooking the garden. There is a small ornamental feature fireplace, with an array of built in wardrobes and storage beautifully built to either side. Completing the accommodation is the bathroom, refurbished with a claw foot bath, a walk-in shower cubicle fitted with an electric shower, wash hand basin and w.c. A lovely room to enjoy a soak at the end of a busy day.

Outside, the cottage continues to marvel, set beside a delightful garden, mainly laid to lawn with planted borders from which to enjoy an array of mature shrubs, bulbs and flowers and with seating areas from which to enjoy far reaching views and the peace and tranquility of the surroundings. There are two useful sheds, one connected with mains power.
