This three-storey end-terrace cottage in Moretonhampstead blends genuine period character with practical living. Exposed beams, winding staircases and an inglenook fireplace create a warm, individual interior, while a modern kitchen/diner, ground-floor extension and large contemporary bathroom meet everyday needs. Vaulted ceiling and dormer windows on the top floor bring light and countryside views.
Set back from a quiet lane and moments from the town’s shops, amenities and primary school, the cottage suits someone seeking a low-traffic, village-edge location with Dartmoor on the doorstep. The property is chain-free and freehold, making it straightforward to purchase and occupy.
Buyers should be aware this is a Grade II listed property, which will constrain alterations and may make some changes more complex or costly. Heating is by electric systems rather than gas, and broadband speeds are very slow — factors to consider if you work from home or prioritise low running costs. The plot is very small, so outside space is minimal.
Overall this is a character-rich cottage for a buyer who values period charm, proximity to Dartmoor and a town-centre location, and who is comfortable managing listed-property responsibilities and modest external space.
