3 bed cottage for sale

Petrockstow, Okehampton EX20

A cottage with soul, sustainability, and space to grow, Harmony Cottage offers it all. Nestled in the heart of Petrockstowe, a picturesque and highly sought-after Devon village, this beautiful thatched home combines period charm with modern, eco-conscious living. With uninterrupted countryside views and a peaceful setting just a short stroll from the village church, it’s the kind of home that feels like a retreat from the moment you arrive.

The striking thatched roof and whitewashed façade immediately capture the imagination, setting the tone for what’s inside, a home filled with warmth, character, and thoughtful details. Step through the front door and you’re welcomed by two inviting reception rooms, each brimming with charm thanks to exposed beams and cottage-style features. The dining room is perfect for family meals or hosting friends, and it opens into a generous living room, ideal for cosy evenings by the fire or weekend gatherings.

The kitchen has been carefully laid out with plenty of worktop space and storage, making it a practical and pleasant area to prepare meals. Completing the ground floor is a well-located bathroom at the foot of the stairwell, adding convenience to the home’s layout.

Upstairs, the character continues. Two spacious double bedrooms benefit from wonderful natural light and offer sweeping views across the Devon countryside. A third, smaller bedroom provides flexible use as a guest room, child’s bedroom, or a peaceful home office. The clever Jack and Jill cloakroom shared between the master and third bedroom adds a layer of practicality.

To the rear, the property enjoys a detached and gated garden, an enclosed, private space that offers something for everyone. Whether you’re looking to grow vegetables, relax in the sun, or entertain guests, this peaceful spot provides the opportunity. A garage and summer house add further versatility, with the potential to use the latter as a workshop, home office, studio, or extra storage.

Harmony Cottage has also been upgraded to embrace modern sustainable living. Solar panels and an air source heat pump help reduce running costs while lowering your environmental footprint, making this beautiful period home one that’s ready for the future as well.

Situated within the idyllic Devonshire village of Petrockstowe, this impressive residence is within close proximity to the village centre and its amenities on offer.

There is a thriving local community, alongside two churches and the parish hall, the nearby Tarka trail is quite the attraction. The nearby market town of Hatherleigh is approx. Four miles from Petrockstow, with further benefits of cafes, a post office and shopping opportunities.

Schools can be found at Hatherleigh and Merton for primary education. Secondary education can be located at neighbouring market towns, Okehampton and Torrington. The private school of Shebbear is only four miles from the village also.
