About this property

    A Grade II Listed Thatched Cottage in an Idyllic Rural Setting

    Tucked away in a peaceful and highly sought-after rural setting, just four miles from the historic city of Exeter, this exquisite Grade II listed detached cottage offers an exceptional blend of period charm, lifestyle amenities and modern convenience.

    Steeped in history and believed to date back to the 15th Century, the property showcases a wealth of original character, with magnificent exposed beams and timeless architectural details throughout. Perfectly positioned for those who appreciate the outdoors, the cottage enjoys easy access to the renowned walking and cycling trails of Haldon Forest.

    The beautifully appointed accommodation includes a stunning full-width conservatory, bathed in natural light and enhanced by underfloor heating, creating an elegant year-round living space overlooking the gardens. The welcoming kitchen/breakfast room centres around a traditional oil-fired Aga, while the impressive dining room features a striking inglenook fireplace, providing a superb setting for entertaining and family gatherings. Adding a touch of luxury, a private sauna offers the perfect retreat for relaxation and wellbeing.

    Approached via a private driveway, the cottage enjoys an enviably secluded setting with two single garages and beautifully landscaped south-facing gardens extending to approximately 0.63 acres. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the grounds feature a superb heated swimming pool, together with a dedicated barbecue area complete with a pizza oven, creating an outstanding outdoor lifestyle environment.

    The roof was re-thatched in 2022, ensuring the continued preservation and integrity of this remarkable historic home.

    Combining centuries of heritage with exceptional amenities, glorious gardens and a highly convenient location close to Exeter, this is a truly unique country residence offering an enviable lifestyle in the Devon countryside.
