Quintessential 17th-century cottage with large private garden and stunning valley views.
Grade II listed thatched cottage dating from the 1600s
Town Cottage is a charming Grade II listed thatched cottage dating from the 1600s, offering authentic period character and far-reaching valley views. The sitting/dining room has an inglenook fireplace with original bread oven and a newly fitted wood burner, while exposed beams and window seats retain historic appeal. The southerly-facing, secluded gardens are large and well stocked, with fruit trees and a patio overlooking open countryside — a rare private outdoor space in a hamlet setting.
This two-bedroom home is presented in good order with modern electric central heating and a recently fitted bathroom, making it comfortable for immediate occupation and ideal for downsizers or those seeking a rural retreat. The property is chain-free and benefits from fast broadband, though mobile signal is only average.
Buyers should note the property’s Grade II listed status: repair, alteration and insurance requirements will be more complex and may restrict changes. The cottage has low-to-average ceilings and modest room sizes typical of period buildings, and there is a single bathroom. The hamlet location gives wonderful peace and views but is remote from larger services; Honiton is about five miles away. Local crime statistics are higher than average, which prospective buyers should investigate.
Overall, Town Cottage suits someone seeking historic charm, generous gardens and countryside outlooks who is comfortable with listed-building responsibilities and a rural lifestyle.
