Cob-built period cottage (pre-1900) — ongoing maintenance likely
A charming four-bedroom period cottage set on a large, well-tended plot in quiet Woodbury Salterton. The house combines traditional cob-wall character and period features with useful modern upgrades such as double glazing and mains gas central heating. The garden is a standout: mainly lawn with mature hedging, established shrubs, a pond, raised vegetable beds and a paved terrace directly off the sitting room.
The ground floor offers flexible family living — a large, bright lounge with French doors to the garden, a snug with a substantial period fireplace and log burner, a kitchen breakfast room and two reception spaces that could suit home working. The detached studio/annexe (with full electrics and substantial storage) provides valuable ancillary accommodation or a potential home office, hobby space or garage conversion. Off-street parking for two cars sits adjacent to the studio with scope to increase parking if required.
Practical considerations are straightforward but important: the property has a single main bathroom plus a separate shower room, and its cob construction and age (pre-1900) mean some periodic maintenance may be needed. There is a medium flood risk for the area — prospective buyers should obtain up-to-date flood and insurance advice. Overall this is an attractive family home with lots of outdoor space and scope to adapt the studio and internal layout to suit modern family life or working-from-home needs.
