Set in a peaceful hamlet, this detached converted chapel offers spacious single‑storey living across a generous plot. The bright interior includes two double bedrooms (one ensuite) and an expansive kitchen with exposed beams that emphasise the property’s period character. Large windows and a private rear garden deliver far‑reaching countryside views stretching to Dartmoor.
Practical benefits include off‑street parking for two cars, planning permission for a coach‑house extension (work started and signed off by building regulations), and sale with no onward chain. The home sits within easy driving distance of Holsworthy and local village amenities, making it a restful base with everyday facilities reasonably accessible.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property runs on oil central heating, the stone walls are likely uninsulated (as built), broadband speeds are very slow, and the EPC is E — which may mean higher running costs and potential insulation work. The started extension creates clear scope for more accommodation or additional income, but any further alterations should be planned with the rural location and services in mind.
This is a good opportunity for a downsizer or buyer seeking a character home in countryside surroundings who is prepared to invest modestly in energy improvements or to complete the extension. The combination of privacy, parking and dramatic views make it a compelling option for a peaceful rural lifestyle.
