East Street, Bovey Tracey, TQ13

STEP INSIDE:
Crossing the threshold, you are welcomed into a warm and inviting living room, lovingly styled to complement the character and age of the property. To the right, a raised inglenook fireplace forms a striking focal point and is home to a recently installed log burner, perfect for cosy evenings. Exposed cob and stone walls add to the cottage’s charm. High ceilings throughout create a surprisingly bright and airy feel, particularly impressive for a cottage of this period.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with simplicity and sympathy for the home’s heritage, featuring a classic Belfast sink, wood-panelled walls and wooden flooring. The floor has been damp-proofed and insulated, ensuring the cottage remains warm and comfortable year-round.

The first floor offers a generous double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, where the window outlook draws your eye across neighbouring cottage rooftops towards the moors beyond. Also on this level is the family bathroom, complete with a Georgian-style slipper bath and beautifully crafted wave-effect wood detailing to the skirting boards and sink area.

A second staircase leads to the principal bedroom, an exceptional space with full-height ceilings and exposed beams. Natural light floods in through a Velux window, while a low-level window perfectly frames views over the rooftops of East Street and out towards Haytor. This is a home with true artistic spirit, full of individuality and character.

SELLERS INSIGHT:
“This property has many special things about it, and we love all of its quirky nature. The fireplace is incredibly inviting during the winter months and we really enjoy coming home to it after a long walk. Walking is our passion, and we often walk from Trough Lane up towards the reservoirs which is beautiful. One of our favourite parts of the house is the upstairs landing and how the stairs curl around. In our bedroom there is a floor level window which looks out over the moors. I often like to just sit and look out at the view, it is such a calm and relaxing space. The passageway which runs along the back of the property, has encouraged a real sense of community and a great relationship with our neighbours.”
