This Grade II listed stone cottage combines period character with comfortable, well-presented living spaces. Interior highlights include exposed beams, two generous reception rooms, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with slate flooring, and French doors opening to a private patio and garden — ideal for relaxed indoor-outdoor living.
Practical benefits include a garage with off-street parking and a decent plot offering superb countryside views. The house is double-glazed (installed after 2002) and has modern fitted kitchen units and some contemporary finishes, while retaining original features such as stone fireplaces and painted ceiling beams.
Important considerations: the property’s listed status means any alterations will be restricted and potentially costly. Heating is by electric room heaters (main fuel: electricity), so running costs will be higher than for gas-heated homes; the stone walls are uninsulated (assumed), which may require investment to improve thermal performance.
Set in the peaceful village of Stokenham with a primary school, two pubs and easy access to South Devon’s coastline and nature reserves, this cottage will suit buyers seeking a character-rich, low-crime rural home. It is especially appropriate for those downsizing or looking for a tranquil second home in an affluent area.
