Chittlehampton

This intriguing Grade II listed cottage, believed to date back to the mid-16th century, presents a unique opportunity for those looking to create a distinctive village home. With planning consent already in place for a complete re-modelling, the proposed layout includes a hall, living room, open plan kitchen/dining room, larder, utility, cloakroom, and three en-suite bedrooms. The property features an enclosed rear walled garden, providing a private outdoor space. Situated on the eastern side of Chittlehampton's historic village square, the property benefits from its proximity to local amenities including a church with the second tallest tower in Devon, a Post Office/general store, and the popular Bell Inn. South Molton, just five miles away, offers additional facilities such as a health centre and various shops, while the stunning North Devon coastline and both Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks are easily accessible. Ardlui stands out with its characterful period features including a thatched roof, exposed timber beams, and an impressive inglenook fireplace. Currently in a stripped-out condition, this cottage requires comprehensive renovation, allowing buyers to tailor the project to their preferences. Significant alterations have been approved, including the conversion of the garage and shippon into ancillary accommodation. These consents provide a solid foundation for potential buyers to explore their visions for this property. The ground floor plans feature an entrance hall leading to a living room with an inglenook fireplace, an open plan kitchen/dining area, a larder, utility room, cloakroom, and a large double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom. The first floor includes two further double bedrooms, each with en-suite facilities. With its rich history and potential for sympathetic restoration, Ardlui offers an exciting opportunity to create a truly individual period home that harmoniously blends original charm with modern living.
