Tucked away on Market Street in Buckfastleigh, this 1-bedroom terraced cottage combines period character with surprisingly generous space. The main reception room has exposed stonework and a coal/woodburning stove, while the kitchen/diner offers ample room for everyday living. A large loft room provides flexible additional space above the principal bedroom.
Practical features include gas central heating and a shower room; the property totals about 737 sq ft and sits within Dartmoor National Park, close to local shops, a station and several primary and secondary schools. The town location is quiet and convenient, with excellent mobile signal and average broadband speeds.
Important considerations: the house is Grade II listed and leasehold, which will restrict alterations and may complicate repairs. The interior needs modernisation throughout and shows signs that may indicate damp or past moisture issues. There is no obvious private garden, and the site has a medium flood risk — buyers should commission specialist surveys and check listed-building consent and lease details before committing.
For a first-time buyer or someone seeking a characterful project, this home offers real potential to create a cosy, well-located cottage near Dartmoor. Its size and loft room give scope for comfortable living, but be prepared for restoration work and the administrative limits of listed status.
