Set in the sought-after village of Abbotskerswell, this Grade II listed semi-detached cottage offers authentic period character and a straightforward renovation project. The house includes two bedrooms, a lounge, conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, wet room and cloakroom; double glazing was installed after 2002 and many original features remain. The south-facing rear garden and decent overall plot give clear scope for landscaping or modest extension (several lapsed planning consents exist; plans available to view).
Important practical points are upfront: the property requires full modernisation throughout, has an EPC rating of F24, and is being sold via probate. Heating is currently electric/night storage; mains gas is present to the property but not connected. The cottage’s listed status will affect any structural or external alterations and may create additional consent requirements and costs.
This home suits a buyer looking for a character-filled project in a very low-crime, affluent village with good local facilities and strong school options nearby. On-street parking only, and granite external walls likely lack modern insulation. Medium flood risk is recorded for the area, so buyers should check insurance and flood-prevention measures. Overall, the cottage presents value for those prepared to renovate sensitively within listed-building constraints.
