This Grade II* thatched cottage blends notable period character with usable family space across three bedrooms. Thick stone walls, exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace create a genuinely historic home set in a large, private garden within a peaceful hamlet. Ultrafast full-fibre broadband and straightforward road access to Crediton make it practical for modern family life despite the rural setting.
Important practical points: the listed status (Grade II*) restricts alterations and may complicate repairs or insurance. The thatched roof and older fabric will require specialist maintenance and may carry higher upkeep costs. Heating is oil-fired and drainage is via a shared septic tank — both worth checking for condition and running costs before purchase.
Accommodation is comfortable and well laid-out: a generous sitting room with wood burner, a fitted kitchen/diner, three bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom. Off-street parking is available with additional on-street space nearby. Low local crime, good nearby schools and easy footpath/cycle links to Crediton make this a compelling cottage for families seeking countryside living with town access.
Suitable buyers are families or buyers seeking a character home who understand the responsibilities of owning a listed thatched property. If you value historic charm, outdoor space and rural calm, this cottage offers rare appeal — but allow for specialist maintenance and listed-property constraints in your budget and plans.
