About this property

GUIDE PRICE £400,000 - £425,000

Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Rockbeare near Exeter, Pound Cottage is a picture-perfect Grade II listed thatched home, rich in history and full of warmth. Believed to have once been the village post office, this double-fronted cottage blends timeless character with modern comfort, offering the best of both worlds for those seeking a slower, more peaceful pace of life.

As you step inside, the cottage instantly feels welcoming. The dual-aspect lounge is light and inviting, with a feature fireplace that creates a lovely focal point


the perfect place to relax after a country walk. On the opposite side, the dining room enjoys a similar dual aspect and offers an elegant setting for family meals or dinner parties.

To the rear, the charming kitchen-diner is the heart of the home, complete with an AGA and a stable door opening to the side. It’s a space that feels made for country living


where mornings start with fresh coffee and sunlight spilling in, and evenings are spent cooking and chatting around the table. There’s also a practical utility area and a downstairs WC.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three beautifully presented bedrooms, including a stylish master with an en-suite. The family bathroom features a stunning roll-top bath


perfect for soaking away the day. Every room showcases thoughtful styling that complements the home’s heritage, from exposed details to soft, timeless finishes.

Outside, the front garden is beautifully maintained and offers plenty of space for children to play or for relaxing on sunny afternoons. At the rear, a private courtyard provides a peaceful spot for morning coffee or evening drinks, and also gives access to the garage with an electric up-and-over door. Beyond the courtyard, a delightful summer house provides a versatile additional space


ideal as a playroom, home office, or a quiet retreat surrounded by the sounds of nature.

Rockbeare is a highly desirable village known for its sense of community and rural charm. It’s home to a popular primary school and the award-winning Jack in the Green restaurant and pub, perfect for Sunday lunches or special occasions. Nearby Cranbrook offers everyday conveniences including shops and a railway station with direct links into Exeter, while the M5 and Exeter Airport are also easily accessible.

Pound Cottage is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Devon’s history – a beautiful, character-filled home where every detail invites you to slow down, unwind, and enjoy a true countryside lifestyle.
