Nestled in the tranquil hamlet of Loxbeare, this four-bedroom cottage offers a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in renovation potential. Set on 1.48 acres, the property features a charming workshop and several characterful outbuildings that retain historical elements of its past. Inside, the cottage greets you with a stable door leading to a cosy reception area that currently serves as a dining room, warmed by a Rayburn stove. The generous 24ft sitting room boasts a traditional fireplace and French doors that open onto the garden terrace, providing a perfect backdrop for family gatherings.
Upstairs, the property comprises four well-proportioned bedrooms filled with natural light, alongside a family bathroom that is ready for modernization. While the interiors have maintained their historic charm, they offer plenty of scope for reimagining spaces to suit contemporary tastes or creating an elegant country retreat.
Outside, the expansive gardens are dotted with mature shrubs and lawns that can accommodate various landscaping ideas or kitchen plots. The grounds also contain intriguing features such as a decorative stone well and water wheel. With additional outbuildings that could serve multiple purposes—from workshops to storage—and potential for future development (subject to planning permission), this property balances seclusion with accessibility; Tiverton’s amenities are just 3.1 miles away, connecting you easily to Exmoor and beyond.
This cottage is not only a home but also an investment opportunity ripe for transformation.
