SituationBrixton Torr, set on the fringes of the South Hams, is an almost timeless hamlet, nestling in a beautiful wooded valley down which a babbling brook runs alongside a meadow to the tidal estuary of Cofflete Creek, an arm of the River Yealm. The setting is delightfully peaceful with tranquil walks through woods along the sides of the estuary; it is hard to believe that the busy city of Plymouth is less than six miles away. The village of Brixton is close by and very convenient for Plymouth with a regular bus service. The National Trust beach at Wembury is just 10 minutes by car, with further beaches at Mothecombe and the South Hams with its lovely countryside and coastline. The village has a church, 'Outstanding' Primary School, nursery, The Foxhound public house, fish and chip shop, general stores, Post Office store and a restaurant. Plymouth itself is an historic and vibrant waterside City, well provided with colleges, grammar and public schools, modern university, the Peninsula Medical School, Theatre Royal and cinemas, large department stores, cafes, bistros and restaurants. The leisure facilities are outstanding with superb water-sports in and around Plymouth Sound.AccommodationPoints of note include:Light and airy rooms presented to a high standard throughout, benefitting from an abundance of character features and excellent storage including wardrobes in all bedrooms.Open plan Kitchen/Living Room in two distinct areas with the Kitchen being fitted with a range of wall and base units with work surfaces over and cupboards and drawers under incorporating a single drainer stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap, built-in electric oven, integral fridge/freezer and dishwasher, induction hob with extractor over and splashback tiling.Useful Utility area with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, useful storage cupboard and hanging space.Downstairs Family Bathroom with fully tiled walls and floor and fitted with a matching suite comprising raised panelled whirlpool bath with mixer tap, corner shower cubicle, low level WC, inset hand basin with mixer tap, cupboard under and mirror-fronted cabinet over, heated towel rail and an airing cupboard housing the oil-fired boiler and slatted shelving.Lovely Snug with wooden panelled walls and ceiling and fitted with a lovely feature fireplace with wood burning stove set on a slate hearth with wooden surround and mantel.Master bedroom with a wooden panelled door to the side leading out to the garden, two built-in double wardrobes with extra storage under the window-seat and a further storage cupboard in addition and an En-Suite Shower Room with fully tiled walls and fitted with an enclosed shower cubicle, low level WC and pedestal hand basin with mirror-fronted cabinet over.Two further double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes/cupboards, with Bedroom 2 also benefitting from a decorative feature cast iron fireplace with wooden surround and mantel and access to the loft space.OutsideThe property is approached via a driveway, part of which is shared with two other properties.  There is a gravelled parking area solely for Ivy Cottage with external lighting, electric car charging point and a walled bank stocked with ferns, bulbs and numerous other plants to provide interest.  Steps lead up via the side of the house (with a door to the master bedroom), and around to the rear garden, which is cleverly arranged on four levels.  To the immediate rear of the house, and accessed from the Living Room, there is a covered gravelled patio, ideal for a morning cup of coffee or al fresco dining.  Steps lead up to a small lawn which then continues on to a further elevated seating area enjoying a gorgeous outlook over fields and woodlands beyond.  The highest level is currently used as a small vegetable garden with raised beds and a useful garden shed.  Overall the garden is well-stocked with a wide range of mature shrubs and other plants; walls, risers and steps are of stone with an abundance of ferns and other alpine plants interspersed amongst the gaps.ServicesMains electricity and water.  Central heating and hot water provided by oil fired boiler located in the utility area.  Private drainage via septic tank shared with one other property and located on neighbouring property.TenureFreehold.Council Tax and Local AuthoritySouth Hams District Council.  Council Tax Band E.ViewingsViewing strictly by appointment with Luscombe Maye Yealmpton .  Online viewing available upon request.DirectionsFrom the Plymouth area, proceed along the A379 towards Brixton and turn right just past the petrol station, going down past the Otter Garden Centre.  Continue along and under the railway bridge, taking the left-hand turning just after Fordbrook Nursery.  Ivy Cottage will be found near the end of the road on the left.From the Yealmpton area, proceed along the A379 through Brixton, taking the left-hand turning into Fordbrook Lane going down past the Otter Garden Centre.  Proceed as above from this point.LettingsLuscombe Maye also offers an Award Winning Lettings service.  If you are considering Letting your own property, or a buy to let purchase, please contact Andrew or Alex on or to discuss our range of bespoke services.
