THE PROPERTY.
Primrose Cottage is an attractive Grade II Listed mid-terrace period home which is located right in the heart of the highly desirable village of Beer. The property is conveniently placed for all that the village has to offer, as well as being within a short walk of the beach and Beer’s stunning cove situated on the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. Primrose Cottage is currently successfully let on a holiday basis and provides an excellent income, however, would equally make an ideal main residence or the perfect second home/bolt hole on the coast. It is prominently placed and is a house that is much admired by passers-by with its tall flint and Beerstone elevations and small pane windows nestled under a slated roof. Dating, we believe, from the mid-1800s, Primrose Cottage has been a large part of the village’s social history and was one of the original lace makers cottages with Beer Lace being highly regarded and even commissioned for part of the flounce on Queen Victoria’s wedding dress.

The property has been the subject of a significant programme of refurbishment and improvement in recent years and is found in superb order with great care and attention given to the fittings and overall finish. Some of the more major works have included replacing much of the heating system and installing a new boiler, re-wiring and fitting fire doors, as well as replacing the kitchen, shower room and the flooring throughout. Worthy of particular mention is the contemporary kitchen which has been stylishly fitted with a good range of cupboards under quartz tops with integral appliances including a dishwasher, fridge, gas hob and oven. From here a stable door leads out to the rear garden where there is a lobby area and utility room. Primrose Cottage benefits from two reception rooms, whilst to the first floor there is a principal bedroom and a superbly fitted shower room. To the second floor are two further double bedrooms.

OUTSIDE.
Primrose Cottage benefits from a sunny terraced rear garden where there are two gravelled seating areas which rise to a patio with artificial grass and a profusely stocked shrub border. There is a pedestrian access through to the rear garden over which the neighbouring properties also enjoy a right of way.

SITUATION.
Beer is a typical example of an unspoilt Devon fishing village and has a variety of shopping and recreational amenities such as restaurants, public houses, post office, galleries, primary school and sailing club. Glorious country and coastal walks emanate from the doorstep over a myriad of footpaths which include the South West Coastal Path from which there are stunning views over this dramatic stretch of coastline. The Regency town of Sidmouth lies some 8 miles to the west and is one of East Devon's premier coastal resorts with beautiful parks and an excellent variety of independent shops, along with a cinema, theatre and range of sporting facilities. The market town of Axminster is about 9 miles away and has a main line rail link to London Waterloo, and the Cathedral City of Exeter is approx. 23 miles distant with excellent shopping facilities, express rail link to London Paddington, international airport and M5 access.
