Characterful two-bed cottage with large garden and no onward chain.
Two double bedrooms with character features and built-in storage
This well-presented two-bedroom end-of-terrace sits in peaceful Newton St. Cyres, a village location with easy access to Exeter. The home blends period character — exposed beams and original cob walls — with modern touches such as double glazing, a galley kitchen and a contemporary bathroom. The bright open-plan living/dining space will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a comfortable, move-in-ready cottage.
Outside, the large rear garden (approx. 25m x 10–12m) offers clear scope for landscaping, a vegetable plot, or a rear extension (subject to planning). Practical features include off-street driveway parking and roof-mounted solar panels to help reduce running costs. The property is offered freehold and with no onward chain, which can simplify a quick purchase.
There are notable considerations to factor in: the property is in a high flood-risk area and sits on historic cob construction, which can require specialist maintenance. Broadband is very slow on copper lines in this location, and there is an existing right of access through the garden — details should be confirmed. These items affect suitability depending on buyer needs and should be checked during survey and due diligence.
Overall, this cottage presents an attractive, characterful opportunity for a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who wants village life with potential to personalise and improve. Its size and layout suit flexible living, while the garden and parking add practical value.
