Summary - CROSSHILL COTTAGE WOODBURY SALTERTON EXETER EX5 1PH
4 bed 3 bath Detached
Character-filled family home with large garden and village location.
Grade II listed thatched cottage with strong period character
Crosshill Cottage is a Grade II listed thatched cob cottage sitting on a very large plot in tranquil Woodbury Salterton. Traditional features — exposed beams, stone floors, open fireplaces and an Aga in a farmhouse-style kitchen — create a warm, characterful family home with period charm. The house offers four double bedrooms and three bathrooms across multi-storey living, comfortably suited to growing families who value character and outdoor space.
Practical benefits include a garage, off-road parking and a large lawned garden with a pond that provides scope for play, hobby gardening or quiet outdoor entertaining. The cottage sits in a low-crime village with good primary schools nearby and rural views over hedgerows and lanes.
Important practical points: the Grade II listing and thatched roof mean repairs, alterations and insurance will be more costly and regulated — any modernisation will require consent. Internal rooms have cosy proportions and some low ceilings, which may not suit those wanting expansive, open-plan spaces. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal average, and council tax is noted as expensive.
For buyers who prioritise authenticity, outdoor space and village living, this cottage presents a rare opportunity. Those seeking turnkey modern convenience, high-speed connectivity or unrestricted renovation should factor in additional costs and constraints before viewing.
