Are you looking for a property with unique character features, while boasting beautiful rear gardens, and a prime location in a popular village with easy access to major cities, coastal routes, and Dartmoor?
Located in the heart of a picturesque village, this Grade II listed detached cottage combines historical charm with modern comfort. Set within a conservation area, the property offers three spacious bedrooms, inviting living spaces, and beautifully landscaped south-facing gardens. With the addition of off-road parking, a single garage, a stone cob barn, and a small paddock, and within walking distance to the local village inn, this home perfectly blends historic living with modern convenience.
Upon entering the cottage, you are welcomed by an entrance hall leading into the living room. This room features a woodburner, original wooden beams, and period windows, creating a cozy atmosphere. From the entrance hall, you can access further accommodation, the kitchen/dining room, or move up to the first level. A few steps down, adjacent to the ground floor shower room, is a dining area ideal for family meals.
The recently upgraded kitchen/dining area features a modern Howdens kitchen suite, combining modern style and functionality with updated cabinets, integrated appliances, and ample counter space. There is also plenty of room for a dining table, perfect for quick bites while overlooking the meticulously manicured gardens.
Upstairs, the cottage has three well-proportioned bedrooms, each with its own historic features. The master bedroom showcases exposed wooden elements and a lovely garden view through recessed, thick cob walls adding to its charm. The additional bedrooms are equally charming, with bedroom two offering dual-aspect windows and splendid views of the rear garden. The family bathroom is also on this floor, providing easy access for all three bedrooms.
The cottage is set within beautifully landscaped, south-facing gardens that offer a private outdoor space that would lead you to believe you are completely rural. Mature trees, vibrant flower beds, and well-tended lawns create a picturesque setting for enjoying late evenings or weekends with family. At the far end of the gardens, raised vegetable beds await green-fingered enthusiasts who seek self-sufficiency.
Practicality is ensured with off-road parking for a couple vehicles and a single garage for secure storage. Adjacent to the home is a stone barn used for storage, and behind it is a small paddock just under a quarter of an acre, with 16 solar panels providing additional electricity to the home through the daytime, and a feed in tariff throughout the night.The property is situated in the heart of the popular and unspoilt conservation village of Sampford Courtenay. The village offers local facilities which include a historic Grade I Listed church and thatched 17th century Inn, which has recently been overhauled.
The village itself lies within rolling typically Devonshire countryside with many opportunities for riding, walking, fishing and other country pursuits. In addition, there is easy access to the north and south coasts of Devon with some attractive beaches and delightful coastal scenery.
