Mirey Lane, Woodbury EX5

A charming period mid-terrace cottage, dating back to the 1800s, situated in the heart of Woodbury. This characterful home boasts an abundance of original features, including a prominent chimney stack and character solid wood brace and ledge doors.

The cottage is entered through a stable front door, opening directly into the open-plan lounge diner.

A winding staircase rises to the first floor, with a useful storage cupboard neatly tucked beneath. The property also benefits from gas central heating throughout.
At the rear of the property, the kitchen is fitted with bespoke solid wood shaker-style wall and base units complemented with black old-style handles and hinges, and topped by a black marble-effect worktop with white ceramic inset sink, enhancing the traditional feel. From the kitchen, a door leads to the bathroom, where a white bath with a wooden side panel is accompanied by a shower over. The sink, a bowl-style design set upon a wooden pedestal with shelving, adds to the home's rustic character. A WC is positioned to the side, and the walls are adorned with cream limestone-effect tiles and a decorative tiled dado rail.
Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation. The second bedroom features a large character chimney breast with an ornate Victorian black cast iron fireplace, complete with a wooden mantle and surround. The primary bedroom is a bright and airy space, with twin windows that flood the room with natural light and offer picturesque views over the village.
