Charming two-bed cottage with large garden and period features, ideal for downsizers.
End-terrace 2-bedroom cottage with strong period character
A charming 2-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage in Old Feniton, marrying period character with modest modern updates. Exposed beams, an inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove and rustic kitchen surfaces give a cosy, village feel. Double glazing and electric underfloor heating add comfort, while the plot and private garden provide outdoor space rarely found in cottages of this size.
The property sits on a large plot and includes a separate garage a short walk up the road. The ground-floor shower room and practical layout make single-floor living easy, appealing to buyers seeking to downsize without losing traditional features. Nearby amenities, a good primary school and a mainline station make the village convenient as well as peaceful.
Buyers should note the cottage’s age and construction: cob walls and a pre-1900 build require appropriate ongoing maintenance and sympathetic repairs. Heating is electric (underfloor and room heaters), which can mean higher running costs compared with mains gas. The garage is not attached and the kitchen is compact, so there is limited internal storage and scope for expansion without reconfiguration.
Overall this is a characterful village cottage suited to someone wanting manageable, characterful accommodation on a generous plot. It will particularly suit downsizers or buyers who value charm and a private garden, and who are comfortable with period maintenance and electric heating.
