Church House is a Grade II listed Victorian cottage in Diptford, offering three double bedrooms and three bathrooms across characterful, multi‑storey accommodation. Original features such as exposed beams, a stone inglenook fireplace and a wood burner create a warm, historic feel, while double glazing and an oil‑fired boiler provide practical comfort.
The southeast‑facing garden, patio, greenhouse and mature shrubs provide a pleasant outdoor space with views to the church and surrounding countryside. A carport leads to a single garage currently used as a workshop and wood store, adding useful parking and storage for family life.
The listing status and age of the property mean any changes will require listed‑building consent and sympathetic repair; this may restrict modernisation and increase costs. Rooms are described as modest to medium in proportion, so purchasers seeking large, open‑plan living should expect limitations or the need for careful alteration.
For families drawn to village life, Diptford offers a strong community, a good primary school and countryside amenities, with Totnes and mainline rail links within easy reach. The house suits buyers who value historic character and scope for sensitive updating rather than a turnkey, contemporary conversion.
