This Grade II listed thatched cottage dates from the 1500s and offers rare historic character in Braunton. Spacious rooms, four double bedrooms (plus a versatile fifth room) and three bathrooms suit growing families or those wanting generous flexible living near the coast. The gated driveway and large private garden are significant practical benefits for village living.
The house has been sympathetically maintained — including recent partial rethatch and refurbished windows — yet the listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate works or extensions. There is a medium flood risk in the area and broadband speeds are slow, which should be considered if you rely on fast home internet. Council tax is above average.
Internally the property blends period features with practical spaces: inglenook fireplace, log burner, a garden room, study, utility and a wet room. The large garden has mature planting, a shed and a summerhouse/workshop with decking, providing usable outdoor space for family life, hobbies or home working.
Offered chain free, this cottage is a rare opportunity to own a spacious historic home a short walk from Braunton village and a short drive to award‑winning beaches. Buyers should budget for maintenance typical of a thatch property and for any specialist consents tied to the listed status.
