Overview
Situated in the heart of the popular village of Bishops Tawton, just a short walk from the village pub, The Chichester Arms, this delightful 200-year-old character cottage blends period charm with modern convenience.
Owned since 2006, the property has been comprehensively refurbished to include re-rendering, re-roofing, re-wiring, re-plumbing, damp-proof treatment and the installation of a gas boiler approximately ten years ago, resulting in a home that is both charming and practical.
The ground floor offers a welcoming sitting room centred around a feature fireplace with wood-burning stove, slate-tiled flooring and a floating timber mantle. This flows through to a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room fitted with solid oak units and black granite work surfaces. A spacious ground-floor bathroom provides a modern three-piece suite and benefits from two Velux roof lights that flood the room with natural light.
To the first floor are two well-proportioned bedrooms, both retaining attractive character features. Outside, directly opposite the cottage, is a charming, low-maintenance block-paved garden—ideal for seating, entertaining or relaxing.
Previously operated as a successful holiday let, the property will appeal equally to those seeking a characterful permanent home, a weekend retreat or an investment opportunity. The village is well placed for Barnstaple, the Tarka Trail and the stunning North Devon coastline, with its beaches, countryside walks and golf courses.
