Description

THE PROPERTY A charming and deceptively spacious three-bedroom character cottage with a private south-facing courtyard, nestled in the heart of Moretonhampstead.

Set just off Fore Street in the historic Dartmoor town of Moretonhampstead, Wheelwright's Cottage is a truly unique and beautifully proportioned home offering space, flexibility, and convenience in equal measure. With no onward chain, this is an exciting opportunity for those looking to move swiftly and make the most of this thriving community. 

GROUND FLOOR This handsome end-of-terrace home blends period charm with generous accommodation spread over two floors.

Inside, the space unfolds into a warm and welcoming layout: the dining room at the front sets the tone, flowing through to a generous sitting room with original granite fireplace and gas effect wood burner - the perfect spot for cosy evenings. A further garden room area offers a lovely connection to the rear courtyard and links to the spacious kitchen/breakfast room.

The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned at the rear of the home and offers a generous and practical layout, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Fitted with a range of traditional-style base and wall units, it provides ample storage and worktop space, along with room for a dining table or informal breakfast area. A large window and glazed door flood the space with natural light while giving direct access to the rear courtyard - perfect for indoor-outdoor living in the warmer months. There is space for freestanding appliances including an oven, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. The adjoining utility room houses further storage and laundry facilities, keeping the kitchen clutter-free and practical, as well as a cloakroom.
 

FIRST FLOOR Upstairs are three light and bright bedrooms, including a notably large principal bedroom with dressing area and views towards the church. A modern shower room serves all rooms, and the property benefits from gas central heating and full double glazing throughout.

 

OUTSIDE Outside, a sun-trap courtyard garden with private gated access offers low-maintenance outdoor space for morning coffee, alfresco dining or a few well-placed pots and plants.

Whether you're looking for a family home, Dartmoor retreat, or downsizing without compromise, Wheelwright's Cottage combines timeless character with a central yet peaceful setting - just a short walk to shops, cafes, countryside trails and everything this vibrant town has to offer.
