Summary - 2 WESTCOTT COTTAGES DOCCOMBE NEWTON ABBOT TQ13 8SU
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
Stone cottage with 3.5 acres, stables and flexible two-cottage layout.
3 bedrooms across two linked cottages, flexible layout
Set on the edge of Dartmoor in a peaceful hamlet, this stone end-terrace cottage offers flexible accommodation arranged as two linked homes. The property includes refitted bathrooms, a recently refitted kitchen in one cottage, original features such as a stone spiral staircase and an impressive fireplace, and a cosy wood-burning stove for authentic rural living.
The plot is substantial: approximately 0.15 acres of immediate garden, ample adjacent off-street parking, and about 3.5 acres of pasture and woodland that include a stable block and field shelters. That land suits equestrian use, livestock or smallholding and adds clear income or lifestyle potential for buyers seeking space and privacy.
Practical considerations are apparent. The property has an EPC rating of F, assumed stone walls with no added insulation, and relies on a boiler with wood logs for heating; council tax is described as expensive. Broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal — important for home working — and the cottages require ongoing maintenance and possible upgrading if you want to improve energy performance or combine the two units into a single home.
This home will suit families wanting a rural retreat, buyers looking for a multi-generational layout, or investors seeking holiday-let or rental income from a dual cottage arrangement. Viewers should expect characterful accommodation with upgrade tasks to enhance comfort and running costs, balanced by large grounds, stables and a superb Dartmoor-edge location approximately 30 minutes from Exeter.
