Read the full agent description
Beautifully positioned on the fringes of Bratton Fleming, Buzzard Cottage is a truly exceptional family home that effortlessly combines generous living space with beautiful countryside views across the rolling hills and wooded valleys that define this outstanding corner of Devon.
From the moment you arrive, the property impresses with ample off-road parking allied to a single garage. Step inside and you are immediately greeted by a home that has been thoughtfully arranged across three floors to provide flexible, generous accommodation for the whole family.
At the heart of the ground floor lies the kitchen and breakfast room/diner, where white shaker-style cabinetry, a substantial range cooker with splashback create a space that is as functional as it is full of personality. An exposed brick chimney breast with wood-burning stove forms a centrepiece between the kitchen and the adjoining dining and sitting areas. Windows bathe the room in natural light and the views towards open countryside beyond are simply glorious. A separate dining room, utility room, shower room and a comfortable sitting room with its own fireplace and far-reaching valley views complete an impressively versatile ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a particularly generous principal bedroom, alongside a family bathroom, all with space for freestanding furniture. The second floor reveals a loft with 2 individual rooms, flooded with natural light through Velux skylight windows, making them ideal spaces for a home office or additional guest accommodation.
Outside, the property truly excels. The generous rear garden is a haven for nature lovers and keen gardeners alike, featuring a wildlife pond, established planting, a greenhouse and a sheltered patio terrace that is perfect for entertaining whilst soaking up the wonderful rural panorama. A separate storage shed adds further practicality.
With the open spaces of Exmoor National Park on the doorstep and the market town of Barnstaple just a short drive away, Buzzard Cottage represents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial, characterful home in one of North Devon's most desirable village settings.
