"A Characterful Edwardian Property with Bespoke Interiors and River Dart Views"
The Property
Flag Cottage sits prominently in period splendour amidst the tucked-away characterful houses of Cistern Meadow.
After parking on your very own drive head up the steps and approach the traditional front door, with ornate stained glass make your way indoors over the Carrara Marble tiled open Porch with original Edwardian wooden detailing into the Entrance Hall. Original stripped wood flooring underfoot and a large fitted full-height mirror draw your eye to the Edwardian-painted staircase ahead.
Take the door to the left off the Hallway to arrive at the grandly proportioned Sitting Room, bathed in light, with a handsome wooden fire surround with cast iron wood burner and slate hearth. Bespoke upholstered window seats sit within the large sash bay windows overlooking the front that draw in an abundance of light, whilst deep skirtings and high ceiling with plaster rose embody the elegance of this home’s period heritage.
There is more to this sensational home, head into the Kitchen/Dining Area, open to the Sitting Room but tucked away is this Neptune bespoke fitted Kitchen finished in muted Farrow & Ball colours and topped with thick Italian Arabasceto marble, a full range of built-in appliances and brass sink with Brass Perrin & Rowe Taps complete this space.
Turn around and sneak a peek at the oh-so-stylish Butlers Pantry again fitted with Neptune units and marble worktop with bespoke marble shelves and Devol Brass wall brackets. An ever so useful Shower Room with marble tiled floor, Burlington shower with black crittall style surround complete this floor.
Time to head upstairs and enter the Main Bedroom, a sumptuous room with a south-facing sash window encased with Plantation shutters.
The second Bedroom overlooks the rear Garden again with a sash window and plantation shutters. The third Bedroom has an upholstered cabin bed with a built-in wardrobe and storage cupboards, wood panelling and Plantation shutters make this an ideal Guest Bedroom. A stylish, contemporary Shower Room with Fired Earth tiling and Burlington shower and sanitaryware complete this floor.
Drift upstairs now to the top floor- noting the attractive storage area to the right. This delightful room with plenty of under-eaves storage has two velux windows providing views out over the rolling Devonshire countryside down to the River Dart.
Externally
Outside, the south-facing sunny Gardens feature a large raised deck to the front finished in ‘ Burnt Cedar’ Millboard Decking, established planting & historic flagpole.
