3 Bedroom Cottage

Set in the heart of a North Devon village, this Grade II Listed, 17th Century thatched cottage has been renovated over the years by the current owners, retaining its period character while accommodating modern living. CosyGlazing secondary glazing has been fitted throughout, and full of character, this is a home that demands to be seen in person, with the selling agents advising an internal inspection to fully appreciate the quality on display.

Approached through a handmade curved top Dartington gate and hedged archway, a cobbled path of great character leads through the garden to the front door of this beautiful and charming home. Inside is a hallway with a large storage cupboard. To one side sits a single bedroom, which would work equally well as a snug or home office, with a window overlooking the front garden. The dining room sits at the centre of the home, with a stone inglenook (currently non functional) set beneath a timber bressumer beam and exposed ceiling timbers. There is room for a farmhouse table, a window looking onto the garden, and a staircase to the first floor. The sitting room has a second inglenook fireplace with a cast iron wood burner on a slate hearth. Dual windows look over the garden and countryside, and a glazed door opens to the patio.

Towards the rear, the kitchen has slate flagstone flooring, exposed beams and cream shaker cabinetry with timber worktops, along with a larder and a plumbed in dishwasher and fridge. A bay window provides space for a breakfast table. The kitchen extends through a lobby into a kitchen extension offering further storage and space for a large fridge freezer, with a door to the inner courtyard, off which sits the utility/WC.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom is a double with bespoke fitted furniture provided by Sharps. The second bedroom is dual aspect, with views over the garden and countryside. The bathroom is a standout feature of the cottage, fitted with a four piece suite, it combines a hand wash basin, traditional WC and a walk in shower with a striking contemporary freestanding slipper bath, positioned beneath the window with its sweeping sculptural lines making it very much the centrepiece of the room. Wood effect flooring and part sloping ceilings complete a space that balances the cottage's character with a genuinely indulgent finish.

Outside, the garden is a stunning feature and wraps around much of the cottage. The main lawn is laid to two levels and edged by deep, well stocked borders planted for year round interest, with a mature multi stemmed acer and an apple tree giving height and structure, the whole is enclosed by hedging and stone walls that keep it private. Three distinct seating areas make the most of the plot through the day, including a flagstone patio set against a stone wall, a sheltered spot for outdoor dining. A courtyard to the rear provides space for pots and a raised bed, along with a log store and bin storage. Double gates off Chapel Street open to private off road parking for two cars, with a storage shed beyond.
