Tucked away in Alphington, this Grade II listed Devon cottage blends historic character with recent sympathetic refurbishment. Exposed beams, stone fireplaces and working wood burners create a warm, authentic interior while modern updates—an insulated roof, a new shower room and a gas combi boiler—deliver everyday comfort.
The house offers flexible living: two generous double bedrooms upstairs, a large reception and a second reception that has served as a third bedroom, plus a cottage-style kitchen with a stable door to one of three mature gardens. High hedges and established planting give a surprising degree of privacy and a calm, country feel yet the city and commuter routes remain close at hand.
Outdoor space and parking are standout practical benefits: three separate garden areas and a wide private drive with space for two to three cars. The property is vacant and being sold freehold with no onward chain, ready for occupation.
Important practical notes: the cottage’s Grade II listed status will limit permitted alterations and could complicate major works. Several original single-glazed wooden windows remain, which affects thermal performance despite an EPC rating of C and recent roof insulation. There are private footpaths giving shared access to neighbouring cottages.
