About this listing
Just a short walk from the centre of Winkleigh, this is a proper Devon cottage. Thatched, full of character and set in a village that still has a real buzz about it, with a pub, shop, excellent butcher, cafes and miles of walks all on hand. The cottage itself has been really well looked after and feels easy to live in. The living and dining space is cosy without being cramped, with a wood burner at its heart, and the kitchen sits neatly to the rear. There’s a nice balance here between character and practicality. Upstairs, there are two good double bedrooms and a clean, simple bathroom. Heating has been sensibly upgraded too, with modern electric systems alongside the wood burner, so it works just as well for everyday use as it would for a second home. Outside, there’s a south west facing courtyard garden, enclosed and easy to manage, ideal for sitting out without a lot of upkeep. The thatch has also been well maintained, with works carried out in recent years, so that side of things is already taken care of. It’s being sold with no onward chain, and would suit a range of buyers, whether as a full time home, a weekend place or even a holiday let. Please see the floorplan for room sizes.

WINKLEIGH is home to The Mad Butcher, the 750-year-old Winkleigh Fair, and is the only village in Devon with the remains of two 12th century castles. The centre of the village features winding, thatched-lined streets leading to the market square around which are dotted several shops, two pubs and a post office. In recent years the village has expanded to include modern housing developments taking advantage of the village’s position amid a good network of roads that quickly link it with towns further afield. Buses also make use of the road network and regular services run to Barnstaple, Exeter, Hatherleigh, and Okehampton, the latter of which has the nearest supermarkets to Winkleigh. It’s proximity to Chulmleigh Academy (OFSTED Good) is another lure, as is the village primary school (OFSTED Good). While the annual Winkleigh Fair unites the community in a week-long calendar of events, the thriving community centre, village hall, and sports centre, ensure there’s usually something going on daily and weekly. DIRECTIONS : For sat-nav use EX19 8HT, unrestricted on road parking is found on Barnstaple Street.
