Sunnyside

Sunnyside is a white cottage with a slate-hung upper storey in Stokenham, a covered porch marking the entrance from the lane.

A wood burner in a brick fireplace

The sitting room keeps a wood burner lit in a brick fireplace, two sofas and a leather armchair gathered around it, a cushioned window seat set between the cottage's curtained windows.

A grey shaker kitchen under a vaulted ceiling

The grey shaker kitchen has a Belfast sink, range cooker and open shelving under a vaulted, beamed ceiling, a wooden table laid for breakfast close by.

Two bedrooms and roll-top baths

Two bedrooms include a twin with two single beds looking onto the fields, and a double dressed in white linen between two bedside tables. The two bathrooms each keep a freestanding roll-top bath, one below a stone-framed window with a glazed corner shower, the other a separate shower room with a bowl basin on a wooden washstand.

A decked terrace over green fields

A decked terrace looks out over green fields and an orchard, a wooden bench set for sitting, the fenced lawn beyond running down toward village rooftops and open countryside, the stone parish church tower visible above the trees.

A period cottage for a small family near Kingsbridge

With two bedrooms and a decked terrace, Sunnyside suits a couple or small family wanting a proper period cottage in Stokenham, close to Kingsbridge, a washing machine and utility room covering the practicalities of a longer stay, the village pub and church both a short walk from the front door.
