3 bedroom terraced house for sale

Set within a quiet tucked away position in the heart of the popular village of Morchard Bishop, this Grade II Listed cottage offers the character and atmosphere that only a traditional cob home can provide. The village has a strong community feel with a good range of everyday amenities including a shop, primary school, pub and church, while a fantastic network of footpaths and country lanes surround the area.

Inside, the cottage is full of the period features many buyers hope to find. The living room centres around an impressive stone inglenook fireplace with oak lintel, bread oven and wood-burning stove, creating a warm and welcoming main living space. Exposed beams, window seat, traditional floorboards and the soft curves typical of cob walls all add to the sense of character throughout. To the rear is the kitchen and dining room which overlooks the garden and forms the everyday hub of the home.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms served by the family bathroom, fitted with a white suite and shower over the bath. From the third bedroom there is access to a useful loft room above, providing flexible additional space for hobbies, storage or occasional workspace.

Outside, the property benefits from off-road parking for two vehicles. The gardens extend to both the front and rear, with the rear enjoying a particularly attractive outlook across neighbouring fields. Immediately behind the house is a paved seating area with steps leading up to a further garden space, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxing. There is also a summer house, log store and outside tap. Please note that a right of way exists across the neighbouring garden to reach the front of the property. We are informed by the seller that this right of way is very rarely used.

Overall, this is a cottage with real personality, combining period charm, village life and countryside surroundings in one of Mid Devon’s most well-regarded communities.
