Description

Situated in the serene hamlet of Upcott, Dartmoor Cottage stands as an appealing Grade II listed thatched property enveloped by the stunning Devon countryside, set within approximately 0.74 acres of mature grounds. This home offers not only beautiful views over rolling fields and the Dartmoor landscape but also presents an exciting opportunity for renovation enthusiasts or investors looking to breathe new life into a classic Devon cottage. The property boasts many traditional features, including exposed beams and stone walls, which highlight its historical charm, while modern upgrades such as new wooden windows add a touch of convenience. The interior layout includes several reception rooms full of character, complemented by a conservatory, kitchen, utility room, two spacious double bedrooms, and a bathroom — all awaiting your personal touch to restore them to their former glory.

Generous gardens surround the cottage, well-suited for various uses from vegetable patches to flower beds and recreational areas for family gatherings or peaceful retreats. A useful outbuilding enhances functionality while the extensive grounds offer scope for gardening enthusiasts or individuals desiring an outdoor sanctuary. Located near the vibrant village of Dolton with access to local shops and community activities along with nature walks nearby, Dartmoor Cottage is not just a home but an investment rich with potential in one of Devon's most picturesque settings.
