2 bedroom terraced house for sale

Nestled at the foot of the idyllic village of South Zeal, this beautifully finished two-bedroom cottage blends period charm with modern comforts in a way that’s both welcoming and wonderfully unique. With its high-specification finish and thoughtfully restored features throughout, this home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy village living in a truly special setting.

The ground floor is a striking open-plan space, where original character details take centre stage. Exposed stonework creates a dramatic backdrop for the generous living area, flowing seamlessly into a rustic-style kitchen that has been tastefully updated with natural materials and warm tones. The layout encourages both relaxed day-to-day living and easy entertaining, with a sense of openness and flow that’s rarely found in cottages of this type.

Just off the kitchen area, the ground floor bathroom provides a touch of indulgence. A classic roll-top bath sits elegantly against more exposed stonework, softened by clean white render and complemented by quality fittings, a perfect spot to unwind at the end of the day.

Upstairs, the property offers two well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom is a comfortable double, full of light and character to the front of the home, while the second is currently arranged as a twin room, offering flexibility for guests, children, or additional workspace. Both rooms maintain the cottage’s charming feel, with thoughtful décor and finishes that continue the balance of rustic warmth and modern refinement.

A standout feature of this home is the staircase leading up to a converted loft space, currently used as a stylish and practical office area. With exposed beams and a skylight bringing in natural light, it’s an ideal retreat for home working, creative projects, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings from above.

To the rear, the property boasts a long and very usable garden, beginning with a charming patio area beneath a pergola adorned by mature wisteria, perfect for outdoor dining or morning coffee. The garden continues with a good stretch of lawn, with flower beds running along each side and ends with a stone-built store, ideal for bikes or tools. Next to this is rear gated access leading directly to a nearby car park, offering added convenience without compromising the cottage’s private, tranquil feel.

The property is situated within the heart of the thriving village of South Zeal, within Dartmoor National Park and a conservation area. The house is within easy walking distance of the primary school, the village hall/pre-school and post office, and two village pubs.

The Oxenham Arms, is a former 12th Century monastery and has hotel accommodation, and the Kings Arms is the social centre of the village. Just a few minutes from the door, you can be on the footpaths up towards Dartmoor’s Cosdon Beacon, wild swimming at Shilley Pool and many other fantastic walking trails.

South Zeal is close to Chagford, Throwleigh and Moretonhampstead, home to many independent shops, restaurants, and coffee shops. South Zeal is host to an annual folk festival and many other village events including open gardens and village fayres.
