This Grade II Listed thatched cottage in Symondsbury offers authentic period character and a peaceful village setting with countryside walks from the doorstep. The house has been sympathetically improved and presents well, with an inglenook fireplace, exposed floorboards and a garden room leading to a modest rear garden.
The layout is compact and practical: sitting room with woodburner, kitchen with utility cupboard, garden room, and three first-floor bedrooms served by a single bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys pleasant rural outlooks. The property benefits from ultrafast broadband and low local crime, making it suitable for home workers or a small family seeking village life.
Important considerations: the cottage is Grade II Listed and has a thatched roof — listed status and thatch maintenance will affect renovation options, ongoing upkeep and insurance costs. Heating is via electric storage heaters and main fuel is electricity, so running costs should be factored in. There is no obvious off-street parking shown and room sizes are typically small as expected in a 19th‑century cottage.
Sold with no onward chain and offered freehold, this cottage suits buyers after character, village location and countryside access who accept listed‑building restrictions and a need for periodic thatch and historic‑fabric care. A thatch condition report is available for review.
