RESERVE WILL BE MET WHEN THE GUIDE PRICE IS REACHED.
This is the first time in decades that this lovely cottage has come to market, and although it is in need of some modernisation, it appears to be in sound condition. The front door leads to a porch and onto the living room with a period fireplace, and beyond are the dining room and kitchen. Upstairs are two well proportioned bedrooms, with the primary one having built in wardrobes, and there is a separate shower room. This is where this property gets interesting! Back downstairs next to the kitchen is a garage with roller shutter door and plenty of space to park a car, and there is also a WC. To the rear of the garage is a private garden with a separate accommodation area comprising an office / hobby room / spare room and conservatory. There is also a greenhouse and summerhouse, and to top things off, there is an outbuilding that fronts onto Barnstaple Street. The footprint of the office / conservatory, garage and outbuilding provide an incredible opportunity for someone with vision to increase the overall accommodation space by converting this footprint, subject to the necessary consents. An opportunity not to be missed!
The property is located outside the conservation area but in the heart of the charming village of Winkleigh. The village has a vibrant community, and local amenities include a general stores, post office, butchers, cafes, doctors surgery and public houses as well as a highly respected primary school. Further amenities can be found in the nearby towns of Hatherleigh (15 min) and Okehampton (20 min). The A30 is a 20 minute drive away, and Exeter can be reached in approx. 40 minutes.
Services: Mains electricity, gas, water, drainage.
EPC Rating: E (47)
Agents Note: This property is being sold by auction as seen, including any remaining contents. We understand a slate has recently slipped and left a small open space on the rear gable roof.
Subject to legal fee of £750 + VAT and administration fee of £1575 + VAT.

†Traditional auction
Exchange occurs at the end of the auction. This means that if the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, the successful bidder is legally obliged to pay the purchase price and the seller will be legally obliged to sell the property. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the buyer is automatically charged a holding deposit, which is held in a secure client account, pursuant to the terms of a holding deposit agreement.
* Pricing Information
The Guide Price amount specified is an indication of each seller's minimum expectation. It is not necessarily the amount at which the property will sell. Each property will be offered subject to a Reserve (a figure below which the property will not be sold) which we expect will be set no more than 10% above the Guide Price amount.
