A compact Grade II listed cottage in the heart of Devizes, currently operating successfully as an AirBnB and offered with no onward chain. The house delivers characterful living with exposed beams, original elm floorboards and a cosy sitting room overlooking The Green. Private allocated parking and a south-facing lawned front garden are rare benefits so close to the town centre.
Internally the layout is practical: a characterful sitting room, a country-style kitchen opening to a rear courtyard, two first-floor bedrooms and a refitted shower room. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and the property has an electric combi-boiler with radiators. The size and configuration suit short-term-let use, downsizers or buyers seeking a low-maintenance pied-à-terre.
Important considerations: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate some upgrades. The property’s timber-frame construction is understood to have no installed insulation, and heating is electric, which can be costlier than gas. The area records above-average crime rates, which investors and residents should factor into insurance and lettings decisions. Overall, the cottage offers a turn-key letting opportunity with character and town-centre convenience, balanced by listing constraints and some energy and security considerations.
