Characterful village home with large garden and workshop space for family living.
Grade II listed detached cottage, offered chain free
A Grade II listed three-bedroom detached cottage set on the edge of High Bickington, offered chain free and presented with much of its original character intact. The house sits on a large, well-enclosed plot with lawn, mature hedging, generous parking for up to five cars and useful outbuildings/workshop space — ideal for a family wanting outdoor space and hobby storage. A two-year-old private hot tub is included.
Inside, traditional features meet practical living: a dual-aspect sitting room with an inglenook and log burner, a spacious kitchen/dining room with island and ESSE range, utility and a downstairs shower room. Accommodation is arranged over two staircases and provides three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Ceiling heights are generally low and room sizes range from small to medium, reflecting cottage proportions.
Important practical points are clear and factual: the property is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate works or extensions. The walls are cavity-built with no confirmed cavity insulation (assumed), and double glazing dates are unknown — buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements. Mobile coverage is limited and broadband availability is variable in the area; confirm current speeds with suppliers if connectivity is critical.
Overall this is a characterful rural cottage for buyers who value village life, outdoor amenity and period features. It suits families or downsizers seeking a private garden, parking and workshop space who are comfortable living within the constraints of a listed building and prepared for possible upgrade works to heating, glazing or insulation.
