Description

Nestled in the desirable village of Newton St Cyres, this Grade II listed cottage, known as Little Pickwicks, offers a blend of traditional charm and promising renovation potential. Set along a quiet country lane near a serene brook, this property is the embodiment of peaceful village life, yet it maintains convenient access to both Crediton and Exeter via regular transport links. The community spirit is vibrant here, supported by local amenities such as an Italian restaurant and the well-regarded Beer Engine pub, making it an attractive spot for families and individuals alike. The home itself boasts classic cob construction beneath a thatched roof and features two inviting reception rooms that retain much of their period character. While the interior would greatly benefit from modern updates, the structure appears sound—offering a blank canvas for someone keen to infuse their own style gradually. On the upper floor, you'll find three bedrooms, including a master suite with ensuite facilities, along with ample storage solutions for family needs. The kitchen/dining area overlooks tiered gardens that provide various outdoor spaces for relaxation or gardening pursuits. Additionally, there's a sizeable timber store at the rear which could be repurposed into a workshop or home office with the appropriate permissions. Notably, the property also includes advantageous off-road parking and an attached garage—amenities seldom found in such village locations. Overall, this cottage represents an excellent opportunity for those seeking to create their ideal home within one of Devon's most appealing settings.
