We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
This attractive Grade II Listed semi-detached cottage features thoroughly charming accommodation and has been superbly maintained by the present owners, who have been in residence for over two decades.
The property occupies a peaceful position to the rear of the village, yet is within easy reach of a selection of useful amenities, including a primary school, church, village hall, community shop, along with the renowned Kings Arms public house and the ever popular Otterton Mill.
The cottage, which was re-thatched in 2024 to enhance the property's character, retains many original period features.
The accommodation is entered through a panelled timber door which opens into the kitchen. The kitchen is a lovely dual aspect space with windows looking out over the front and rear gardens.
There is a good selection of shaker style base and wall mounted units with a selection of integral appliances and a range cooker.
A door to the rear also provides access on to the rear gardens, and a stable door opens to the adjoining living room.
The living room is a pleasant reception space with a large inglenook fireplace featuring a woodburning stove and an oak bressummer, a charming window seat that overlooks the front, and a glazed door that opens on to the rear gardens.
A large opening connects to the dining room, which is another charming reception room with a dual aspect.
Stairs rise to the first floor landing, which offers useful fitted storage and connects the bedrooms and family bathroom.
Bedrooms 1 and 2 are both good sized double bedrooms that overlook the front and rear respectively. Bedroom 3 is a large single bedroom that overlooks the front.
The bathroom has been fitted in recent years and comprises a modern white suite which includes a panelled bath with an electric shower unit over, a wash basin with fitted storage below, and a low level wc.
Hinged timber gates are located to the left hand side of the cottage, which provide access to the rear gardens and additional parking.
Parking is also available to the front of the gates providing the adjoining path is not obstructed.
The rear gardens feature a large patio area, a lawn surrounded by established plants and shrubs and and a raised deck that offers a perfect place to sit and enjoy the quiet of the surrounding countryside.
There is a converted stable building adjoining the patio, presently used as a workshop and store. This space, is equipped with a selection of kitchen units and plumbing which includes a wc.
There is certainly great potential to convert this space further into an annex (subject to the necessary permissions). A charming cottage located in a popular East Devon Village.
Early inspection recommended.
