Membury, Axminster, Devon

Nestled in a tranquil rural setting, this Grade II listed thatched cottage, known as Nightlands, offers a unique opportunity for those seeking charm and character. Set within approximately 1.17 acres of gardens and grounds, the property boasts stunning views over the East Devon countryside and is available with no onward chain. Dating back to the 17th Century, this individual residence features colour washed stone elevations and was extended in the 1980s. Recent improvements include the replacement of two-thirds of the thatched roof in 2025, ensuring the property is well-maintained. The accommodation is spread across three levels, with many principal rooms enjoying a southerly aspect, perfect for soaking in the picturesque surroundings. Internally, the cottage comprises a spacious reception room with exposed beams and an inglenook fireplace, a sizeable kitchen/dining area equipped with an oil-fired Rayburn, and three double bedrooms. A study and utility room with WC add to the practicality of the space. Externally, access is via a private right of way leading to a parking area and a dilapidated garage. The expansive lawn is bordered by established shrubs and tree-lined banks, creating a serene environment. A large paved terrace provides an ideal spot for outdoor enjoyment while taking in the stunning views. Located in the peaceful hamlet of Hill Common, Nightlands is just a short distance from local amenities in Axminster and is well-placed for exploring the beautiful Jurassic coastline. This property presents an exciting opportunity for modernisation and improvement, allowing new owners to put their personal stamp on a historic home.
