Would you benefit from additional reception space, a quiet countryside setting, or perhaps a slice of West Devon village life, with the added appeal of nearby moorland walks and coastal adventures? Tucked away in the heart of Exbourne, this charming Victorian cottage blends historic character with impressive versatility, offering spacious living in one of the area’s most sought-after villages.
The cottage occupies a prime spot on a quiet lane, just moments from the community-owned shop and café, well-regarded village pub, and primary school, everything you need within walking distance, and all just a 15-minute drive from Okehampton and the A30. Step inside and you’re welcomed by the warmth and charm that only a home of this era can offer, original fireplaces, timber details, and a comforting sense of history, softened by a practical and well-considered layout.
Two front reception rooms provide ideal spaces for family gatherings or peaceful evenings by the fire, with the added benefit of a recently fitted multi-fuel stove. To the rear, the kitchen opens into a light-filled sunroom, flowing into a generous multi-purpose space currently used as a home office, gym, and utility area. For those looking to create a truly open plan lifestyle hub, planning permission is already in place to reconfigure this area into a vaulted kitchen diner with additional utility and shower facilities.
Upstairs, the accommodation continues to impress with four bedrooms and a smartly finished family bathroom. Whether you’re upsizing or looking for flexibility in your next move, the layout offers an adaptable footprint to suit modern family life, multigenerational living, or even remote working.
Externally, the home enjoys the benefit of both front and rear cottage style gardens, each thoughtfully planted to provide colour and privacy throughout the seasons. The rear garden in particular offers a sociable and usable outdoor retreat, complete with patio seating area, firepit and covered BBQ shelter. Across the lane, the garage store and off street parking provide valuable practicality.
This is a home that balances space, charm and future potential, set within a vibrant, welcoming community. With Dartmoor and the North Devon coast easily accessible, and Exeter within reach via rail or road, this could be your perfect next step, whether you're dreaming of a lifestyle change or simply searching for somewhere that feels like home.
