This grade II listed traditional cottage property has good room sizes and well-lit accommodation together with modern kitchen and bathroom. There is gas-fired central heating via a modern combi-boiler and the property is neutrally decorated.
Outside, there is a large private garden divided into two connecting areas with lawns, mature shrubs and a productive vegetable garden. The garden is enclosed by mixed hedgerows and has a rural outlook. There is a timber garage building, and parking at the front of the property for a couple of cars. The adjoining former farmhouse and neighbouring barn building share the entrance from the lane.
Howton Road is situated off the Newton Abbot to Bickington road, around two to three miles from the A38 in one direction and the town of Newton Abbot in the other. Newton Abbot has a modern pedestrianised shopping centre, choice of primary and secondary schools, leisure centre and mainline railway station with direct link to London Paddington. The rugged landscape of Dartmoor is just twenty minutes by car and the south Devon coast, with its sandy beaches and sheltered coves, around half an hour.
Directions : From the roundabout by Newton Abbot Leisure Centre/Coombeshead College, take the A381 Ashburton Road out of the town and after approximately two miles take a right, signposted Seale Hayne, into Howton Lane. Proceed up the lane towards the top and the property will be found on the right just after the s-bend.
