Characterful two-bedroom cottage with vaulted dining room and sun-trap courtyard in sought-after Ipplepen..
• End-terrace period cottage with original character
• Vaulted, double-aspect dining room with French doors
• Cosy sitting room with woodburner
• Two double bedrooms and modern shower room
• Private courtyard garden with stone-walled raised beds
• Small rooms and low ceilings in parts of the house

Tucked down a quiet pedestrianised lane in sought-after Ipplepen, this end-terrace two-bedroom cottage combines original character with surprising living space. A cosy sitting room with a woodburner leads through to a rustic kitchen with exposed beams and a Rangemaster, while the vaulted dining room floods the house with light and opens by French doors onto a sun-trap cottage courtyard.
The accommodation is practical and well laid out for modern life: two double bedrooms upstairs, a modern shower room, walk-in pantry, downstairs WC and utility area. At 831 sq ft the size is typical for a period cottage but feels generous thanks to the vaulted dining space and double-aspect rooms. Fast broadband, mains gas central heating and very low local crime support everyday convenience.
Notable positives include freehold tenure, a pretty private courtyard garden with stone-walled raised beds, and a tucked-away position within a thriving village with shops, pub and good primary and secondary schools nearby. The property will suit first-time buyers, couples, those downsizing, or buyers seeking a village bolthole or rental investment.
Buyers should be aware of the cottage’s period limitations: low ceilings and relatively small rooms in parts of the house, and the original granite walls likely lack modern cavity insulation (as built). The garden and interior are charming but will benefit from refreshing and ongoing maintenance typical of pre-1900 properties. Limited off-street parking is likely given the pedestrianised approach.
