Churchtown Cottage is a spacious three-double-bedroom detached country home set in a quiet West Anstey hamlet on the edge of Exmoor National Park. The stone-built cottage dates from the early 1800s, has been enlarged in later years and sits in established, tiered gardens designed for low maintenance. The garage, car port and generous gravel drive provide ample parking and storage for country equipment.
The house blends traditional character with modern energy features: original inglenook fireplaces and exposed stone sit alongside a 3.1 kW solar PV array with 4.8 kW battery storage and a biomass pellet boiler. Internally the layout works well for family living, with a dual-aspect dining room, separate sitting room, snug/study and a country-style kitchen. A single shower room serves three double bedrooms on the first floor.
Practical considerations for buyers are clear and factual. The property is in a very low crime area with fast broadband available, but mobile signal is reported as none. Construction is predominantly stone beneath a natural slate roof; wall insulation is not defined and walls are assumed to be uninsulated. Drainage is to a private system and council tax is higher than average (Band E).
This cottage will suit buyers seeking privacy, garden space and countryside living close to Dulverton and Exmoor. It also offers scope for further energy or fabric upgrades (wall insulation, glazing review) for those who want to reduce running costs or alter internal layout.
