This detached two-bedroom cottage in Chilsworthy sits in a sought-after village location and is offered chain-free, making it a straightforward purchase for someone looking to move quickly. The house benefits from generous gardens and a useful stone outbuilding — ideal for storage, a workshop or potential conversion subject to consents. Interiors show strong period character with exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, though the property would benefit from a programme of modernisation throughout.
Practical details: the home is freehold, has LPG-fired central heating with a boiler and radiators, and double glazing installed before 2002. Broadband speeds are very slow in the area but mobile signal is excellent. There is no flooding risk recorded and the property lies close to Holsworthy, which provides a good range of shops, amenities and school options.
Important drawbacks are straightforward: the property needs renovation and updating, EPC is to be confirmed, and mains services include LPG rather than mains gas which affects running costs and availability. The wider area is classified as remoter and agricultural communities and local deprivation indicators are higher than average, which may influence resale or rental demand. Buyers should factor in modernisation costs and consider service and insulation upgrades.
For buyers seeking a countryside bolt-hole or a character home to refurbish, this cottage offers strong potential thanks to its garden, outbuilding and village setting. For those prioritising instant modern convenience and high-speed broadband, the property will require work to meet those expectations.
