This well-presented Grade II listed cottage sits on a quiet street in Witheridge and blends period charm with recent upgrades. The ground floor offers a sociable kitchen/diner and a cosy lounge with a wood-burning stove; two double bedrooms and a large family bathroom occupy the first floor. A new roof was fitted in 2023 and many internal improvements have been carried out, making the property largely move-in ready.
The plot is small but practical: a lawned rear garden and a powered outbuilding provide usable outdoor space and storage or workshop potential. Off-street parking is available to the front, though the historic use of a small area for parking should be checked for formal rights. Council Tax is band B, and the location benefits from low crime and village services including a primary school and regular buses to nearby towns.
Buyers should note the Grade II listing and cob-wall construction. Listed status protects historic features but can restrict extensions or substantial alterations and may complicate repair methods. Heating is oil-fired with an external tank, which can mean higher running costs and periodic fuel deliveries compared with mains gas. Double glazing is in place, but installation dates are not recorded.
This property will suit buyers seeking a compact, characterful family home in a rural village — those who value period detail and a ready-to-live-in interior. Investors or those wanting extensive remodelling should factor in listed-building constraints and fuel costs when assessing the long-term running and refurbishment budget.
