Description

This mid-terrace character cottage presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment, nestled within a conservation area in the picturesque town of Chulmleigh. Just a short stroll from local amenities, the property offers two bedrooms along with an open-plan kitchen/living room and a bathroom, all awaiting modernization to unlock their full potential. Chulmleigh is an active community at the heart of rural Devon, boasting a range of essential services including shops, a bakery, dairy, and health facilities. Families will appreciate the nearby Chulmleigh Academy, which provides education from ages 3 to 16. The town also features recreational options such as a community-run sports center and an 18-hole golf course. For broader shopping and amenities, both South Molton to the north and Crediton to the south are easily accessible, while Eggesford railway station (approximately 2 miles away) connects to Exeter and Barnstaple. Major road access via the A377 and North Devon Link Road enhances convenience for commuters. Church Cottage itself retains traditional charm with its stone and cob construction under a slate roof. The layout spans two floors, including an entrance hall that leads to the bathroom and the spacious open-plan kitchen/living area. The first floor comprises two bedrooms, each offering views of the surrounding area. While the property does require comprehensive renovation—replumbing, rewiring, and updates to fixtures—the potential for transformation into a modern living space is significant. Outside, there’s a small front garden perfect for planting flowers or creating outdoor arrangements that complement the charming exterior. The approach involves a shared pedestrian path leading directly to the property entrance. In terms of utilities, Church Cottage benefits from mains electricity, water, and drainage along with basic broadband capabilities—an important consideration for those looking to invest in or renovate this space. With no ongoing chain, this property offers not only a chance to restore a quaint home but also serves as an attractive investment opportunity in an evolving area rich with community spirit and local amenities.
