The Property:

Steeped in history and full of character, this beautifully refurbished Grade II listed thatched cottage dates back to the 17th century. Nestled on a quiet lane within walking distance of the village centre, it offers a wonderful blend of period charm and modern comfort. Retaining many original features—including exposed beams, wooden floorboards, and a striking inglenook fireplace—it provides a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The cottage is thoughtfully arranged into two distinct wings, offering a unique layout that enhances privacy and flexibility. Successfully operated as a holiday let for the past five years, it has generated a strong annual income but would also make a delightful permanent home or countryside retreat.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a bright and spacious farmhouse-style kitchen and dining area, featuring cream cabinetry, solid wood worktops, a Belfast sink, integrated appliances.

Just off the kitchen, a short staircase leads to the East Wing, which comprises a generous double bedroom with dual-aspect windows and built-in storage.

In the West Wing, the stunning sitting room serves as the heart of the home, boasting a magnificent inglenook fireplace with a newly fitted wood-burning stove, a window seat, and exposed beams. A beautiful stone spiral staircase leads to the principal bedroom, a spacious double with built-in wardrobes, original floorboards, and an en-suite shower room.

The ground floor also features a study with access to the rear garden, as well as a well-appointed family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower.

Outside:

The property enjoys a beautifully maintained private garden, predominantly laid to lawn and enhanced by mature shrubs, fruit trees, and flower borders. A shingle pathway meanders through the space, leading to a patio seating area—perfect for outdoor dining while enjoying the far-reaching countryside views. There are three parking spaces—one at the front of the cottage and two more at the rear—along with three outbuildings offering useful storage.

With its unique two-wing layout, timeless charm, peaceful setting, and proven holiday let success, this is a rare opportunity to own a quintessential Devon thatched cottage—ideal as a family home, investment, or idyllic retreat.
