Brambling Cottage, Holsworthy EX22

Full Description

Brambling Cottage

Located on the north side of the pretty village of Bradworthy in North Devon, Brambling Cottage is one of five unique, cottage-style homes on the select new Honnacotts development. Built by craftsmen with an abundance of natural materials, this lovely home is filled with character and old country charm.

An Energy-Efficient, Cottage-Like Home

Compared to an old draughty cottage, this modern new build home will have much lower running costs thanks to the installation of an air source heat pump, underfloor heating, and the latest thermal efficient insulations. Unlike the bland rooms of standard new build properties, this cottage will be built with softly rounded walls creating the warmth and welcome of old country homes for which Devon is renowned.

In addition to the three bedrooms upstairs, including a spacious master ensuite bedroom, there will also be a downstairs bedroom and bathroom to comfortably accommodate family or guests and a further room to lend itself perfectly to being either a snug or fifth bedroom.
Inside

The sheltering, timber-framed entrance to this cottage will invite you to come inside where you will notice straight away the beautiful solid oak staircase and internal doors, set perfectly against the soft-edged walls and natural slate flooring.

Kitchen/Dining/Sitting Room

The open-plan double-aspect living area (4.4m x 8.3m) will be a wonderful space to spend time with family and friends, offering plenty of dining area and comfortable sitting, complete with a cosy log burner set in a beamed, cottage-like fireplace. The traditional shaker-style kitchen with its island will offer plenty of room for storage and preparation. Here, the bifold doors will allow light to flood in and give easy access to the patio and the large back garden for alfresco dining. The floor to the kitchen will be a timeless, natural slate, and both this and the wood floors of the sitting area will benefit from under-floor heating which will run throughout the ground floor.

Laundry Room

The laundry room (2.9m x 1.9m) will have a door to the garden, making it easy when hanging washing out or returning from a country walk with muddy boots. This useful room will also have convenient access to the integral garage.

Downstairs Bedroom/s 4/5

With the addition of a downstairs fourth bedroom (3.2m x 1.2m) with a large window looking out onto the back garden, and a downstairs bathroom (1.9m x 2.0m), as well as a snug/office/fifth bedroom (3.1m x 3.1m), this cottage lends itself to accommodating visitors or relatives and will offer plenty of space for a growing family.

Upstairs

Master Bedroom

The master bedroom (4.0m x 4.3m) will be light and spacious with a pretty dormer window to the rear and a second, full-length window looking out to the side. It will also have a beautiful handmade fitted, oak fronted wardrobe for storing away your clothes. As with all the bathrooms at Honnacotts, the ensuite shower room (1.9m x 4.3m) will be partly tiled in a soft neutral colour, with the floor in a natural slate colour, non-slip ceramic tile. An electric point above the sink will allow for a cabinet with lighting, shaving, and toothbrush charging. A lovely heated towel rail means warm towels await you after a bath.

Bedrooms 2 and 3

Bedroom two (3.4m x 4.0m) will have the added interest of a dormer window as does bedroom three (3.7m x 3.1m). The family shower room (2.8m x 3.1m) will be situated between the two.

Stairwell Feature

Notably, the stairwell is going to be quite a feature of this lovely modern cottage. Bathed in light from a bespoke glass window to the front and a roof light above, the craftsman-made, solid wood staircase with its glass balustrading will allow plentiful light to reflect around the walls.

Garage

The garage (5.9m x 3.0m) will include a retractable door that can easily be automated. It will also be built with the capacity to install an electric car charger. Should you ever wish, the space has the potential to be converted to extend the downstairs living area as it will be constructed to the same cavity wall specification as the rest of the house.

Gardens

The gardens to the front of the property will have a 3ft boundary natural picket fence that edges the lawn, creating a wonderful opportunity to design and plant with your favourite cottage garden flowers. A pathway will lead from your driveway to your front doorstep, finished in a natural non-slip ceramic slate and edged in brick. The generous back gardens will be laid to lawn with a patio leading out from the kitchen. The perfect space for extending your living area outside in the summer months. There will also be an outside tap for filling your birdbath and watering your plants and a handy electric socket for perhaps a sprinkle of fairy lights.

Devon Banks and Hedgerows

The surrounding countryside with its glorious meadows, Devon banks, and hedgerows are filled with wildflowers, from primroses and cow parsley in early spring to the bluebells, foxgloves, oxeye daisies, as well as the late summer abundant harvests of blackberries and sloes for delicious puddings and preserves.

Ease and Convenience

Honnacotts is a very convenient location, just a level few minutes walk from the village square, the center of Bradworthy, with its wealth of amenities. In fact, almost everything you need can be found in the village, including an award-winning primary school, a doctor’s surgery, food and household supplies as well as a garage for fuel and repairs. All this with beautiful countryside on your doorstep and the glorious North Devon and Cornwall coastline just a short trip away, the development is well worth a visit.
