Set on North Street in the heart of North Tawton, this generous three-bedroom detached cottage offers spacious, flexible living across approximately 1,886 sq ft. Two large reception rooms — one with a wood-burning stove and one with a fireplace and utility/shower room off — plus a study and a 13' kitchen/breakfast room give comfortable family accommodation and scope for home working.
Externally the house benefits from a lawned front garden, a private rear courtyard and a garage. Period character is apparent throughout: exposed beams, traditional cob walls and a country-cottage feel. Practical upgrades include double glazing installed post-2002 and a mains gas boiler with radiators.
Important points to note: the property was constructed before 1900 with cob walls, which can require specialist maintenance and care. Some rooms are traditionally proportioned with lower ceilings and smaller footprints compared with modern houses, so buyers should view with room sizes in mind. The energy rating is C and council tax is moderate.
This home suits families wanting a central small‑town location with local schools and amenities within walking distance, or buyers seeking a character property with potential to personalise. Low local crime, good mobile signal and an overall large internal footprint make it a versatile purchase, but factor in ongoing maintenance for an older cob-built dwelling.
