Located in the peaceful hamlet of Milton Damerel, the equestrian facilities are the true standout feature. Approximately 50 metres down the quiet lane sits the main parcel of land, divided into well maintained post and rail paddocks and designed with both practicality and enjoyment in mind. Facilities include a superb 25m x 50m sand and fibre riding arena with mirrors, a 20m x 15m all weather turnout area, timber stable block with four loose boxes and tack room, hay store, kennels, additional outbuildings and extensive hardstanding with ample space for parking, trailers and easy turning.

Beyond horses, the setup lends itself perfectly to a smallholding lifestyle with space and versatility for goats, sheep, chickens, dogs and other animals, making it an ideal home for anyone looking to embrace countryside living to the fullest.

The cottage itself is full of warmth and character, blending period charm with practical everyday comfort. The welcoming living and dining room centres around a beautiful fireplace with wood burning stove, creating a cosy heart to the home. The country style kitchen features solid wood cabinetry and generous worktop space, while the utility and boot room is perfectly suited to muddy boots, dogs and country life.

Upstairs are two spacious double bedrooms enjoying lovely rural views, with charming original touches including shutters and built in storage. The bathroom is tastefully finished in a clean contemporary style that complements the age and character of the home.

Outside, enclosed courtyard gardens to the front and rear provide private areas to relax and entertain, with established planting, raised beds and an outdoor WC. A private driveway provides parking for multiple vehicles.

Set amongst rolling Devon countryside yet within easy reach of Holsworthy, Bideford and the North Cornwall coast, this is far more than just a cottage.
