This compact character cottage sits behind an archway on Castle Street in popular Combe Martin, offering authentic period features including exposed beams, cob stone walls and a wood-burning stove. The layout provides two double bedrooms plus a smaller third bedroom or home office, a kitchen/diner and a cosy living room — well suited to first-time buyers, small families or those seeking a seaside bolthole.
Outside, the property benefits from an enclosed suntrap garden and a courtyard area with useful outdoor storage and plumbing provision for a washing machine. A brick outbuilding offers potential to become a summerhouse or garden office (subject to necessary permissions). Allocated off-street parking for one car is included — a practical bonus in a village centre setting.
Practical realities are straightforward and should be considered: the house is small (approximately 666 sq ft) with a single bathroom and multi-storey layout, which may suit some buyers less than others. The building is of traditional cob construction and has double glazing of unknown installation date, so future maintenance and potential upgrades (windows, insulation, redecoration) should be factored into any purchase plans.
Set where Exmoor meets the North Devon AONB, the location is ideal for walkers and seaside lovers, with local amenities, good mobile signal and low local crime. Broadband speeds are average and the property is freehold with low council tax, making this a straightforward, characterful home or a manageable holiday-let/investment opportunity for buyers prepared to embrace a compact, historic cottage.
