Characterful 3-bed village cottage with countryside views and no onward chain.
Three bedrooms including large top-floor bedroom with far-reaching views
A pretty end-terrace period cottage set in the heart of Down St Mary, presented with sensitive modern upgrades while retaining rural character. The ground floor offers a contemporary shaker kitchen with granite worktops and integrated appliances, plus a cosy lounge centred on a certificated wood-burning stove. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a spacious top-floor bedroom with a picture window and countryside outlook.
Practical upgrades include uPVC double glazing and mains gas central heating. Outside there is a decorative walled front garden, a powered store shed and an outside toilet. The property is sold freehold with no onward chain — appealing to buyers wanting a straightforward move.
Notable constraints are the small plot and the fact the rear garden is shared/used rather than owned outright (1/6 share of a small plot only). The cottage is older stone construction with assumed no wall insulation, and the EPC is E — there is potential to improve thermal performance. Drainage is private; purchasers should confirm maintenance responsibilities.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking a characterful village home near walking routes and countryside, including first-time buyers or those downsizing who want a low-crime, peaceful location. Broadband in the postcode can reach around 35Mbps but actual speeds vary; mobile signal is excellent. Council Tax Band C (Mid Devon).
