A charming Grade II listed thatched cottage in the heart of Monkokehampton, The Old Post Stores retains strong period character including exposed beams, inglenook fireplace and sash windows. The house offers comfortable family accommodation: sitting room with multi-fuel stove, separate dining room, well-fitted kitchen, utility, two ground-floor reception rooms and three first-floor bedrooms. An attractive enclosed cottage garden, summerhouse with power and gravelled parking for two add practical outdoor space.
This is a traditional property with genuine historic appeal but also some constraints. The thatched roof and listed status mean maintenance and any alterations will require specialist care and listed-building consents. Heating is oil-fired with underfloor sections; the EPC is band E. Broadband is very slow in this location and mobile signal indoors can be limited.
For buyers seeking rural village life and character, the house is well placed for countryside walks, the Tarka Trail and nearby village and market-town facilities. The property will particularly suit purchasers who value charm and are prepared to manage listed-building responsibilities and ongoing maintenance. Freehold with council tax band C and no flood risk.
