Description

Nestled in the heart of the desirable South Hams village of Holbeton, this charming character cottage offers a unique living experience, blending historic charm with a thoughtful reverse-level layout that maximises light and space.

Forming part of the village's historic cider press, the property immediately impresses on the upper level with its spectacular vaulted lounge/diner and kitchen. Adorned with exposed beams, distinctive stonework, and multiple windows, this naturally bright and spacious open-plan area provides an ideal setting for both daily life and hosting. The well-appointed kitchen area features ample workspace and storage, complete with an integrated oven and hob. Also on this level is a separate WC.

Descending to the ground floor, you will find two well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a convenient storage room, also used as a utility room. The principal bedroom offers direct access to the rear terrace. Outside, the property will benefit from a lawned garden, perfect for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying the peaceful village atmosphere. There will also be two allocated parking spaces.

The property does require updating, but the price does reflect this.

The property is offered with a Share of Freehold, providing additional ownership benefits, and represents a rare opportunity to acquire a property in an unspoilt, picturesque village setting. The property will be sold on a 999-year lease. There will be no ground rent, and a proposed service charge of around £50 per month will go into a sinking fund covering communal maintenance and building insurance.

Holbeton is a highly sought-after South Hams village, known for its friendly community, popular pub, primary school, and church. It boasts excellent access to Mothecombe Beach, the South West Coast Path, and the beautiful surrounding countryside. Plymouth is also within easy reach of broader amenities and transport connections.

With its blend of character, appeal, and comfortable living space, this cottage is an ideal choice for a main residence, a tranquil second home, or a successful holiday retreat in this esteemed coastal region of South Devon.
