Set within the peaceful village of Poughill, this Grade II listed end-terrace thatched cottage offers characterful, compact living for buyers seeking a quieter pace. The house provides two reception rooms, two bedrooms plus a loft room, arranged across north and south wings to give flexible living space and cosy period charm.
Outside, generous enclosed lawns, useful garden sheds and a large store room create low-maintenance outdoor space and useful storage. Off‑road parking is available to the rear — a rare convenience for a property of this age and setting. Chain free sale simplifies a swift move for buyers ready to downsize or buy a comfortable second home.
Buyers should note the material considerations that come with an older listed cottage. Grade II status will restrict alterations and may complicate improvements. The thatched roof and traditional granite walls mean ongoing maintenance and higher insurance costs are likely, and wall insulation appears absent. The EPC is rated D and broadband speeds are slow, so modernisation works would improve efficiency and connectivity.
Overall, the cottage suits buyers wanting authentic period character, generous private gardens and village life close to the North Cornwall coast, provided they accept listed‑building responsibilities and some investment to improve energy performance and connectivity.
