Barnstaple Street, Winkleigh, Devon, EX19

This Grade II listed cottage dates back to the 17th Century, showcased through features such as exposed beams and lintels, as well as the feature stone inglenook fireplace. It was then extended later in life, giving it the perfect balance of period charm with more modern day space and convenience. The front door opens into a porch allowing you to leave muddy shoes behind after a country walk before entering the accommodation space. The reception room spans the entire width of the cottage, and it has a large window to front and a log-effect electric heater in the inglenook at the far end.
