Nestled just a short stroll from Tavistock’s vibrant town centre and the peaceful surroundings of Meadowlands Park, this charming Grade II listed Duke of Bedford cottage offers a wonderful blend of character, convenience, and period charm. Ideally positioned close to supermarkets, public transport links, and a range of local amenities, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive home in one of Devon’s most sought-after locations.

Stepping inside, you are immediately welcomed by an abundance of original features that celebrate the cottage’s rich heritage, including exposed beams, characterful stone walls, and a cosy sitting room centred around an attractive open fireplace. From here, a door leads into the well-proportioned kitchen, which offers ample fitted units and space for dining. A newly created cloakroom adds practicality, while the spacious living/dining room beyond enjoys direct access to the garden, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining.

Upstairs, the property boasts two generous double bedrooms, complemented by a recently installed contemporary shower room.

Outside, the principal garden is situated to the front of the property and is mainly laid to lawn, with a patio seating area perfect for relaxing and enjoying sunny afternoons. To the rear, a private courtyard incorporates a useful stone outbuilding currently utilised for storage. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, this versatile space could potentially be converted into a home office, studio, or hobby room, providing excellent flexibility for modern lifestyles.

Please note that there is a right of way across both the front and rear of the terrace.

This delightful cottage is a rare find in Tavistock, offering character, charm, and convenience in equal measure, with easy access to scenic walks, local amenities, and the town’s many attractions. We have also been informed that a parking space is available to rent nearby.

A detached parking space is currently rented by the sellers and may be available to a purchaser by separate arrangement. Please note that the parking space is not included within the sale and is available under a separate rental agreement, not through the purchase of the property.
