4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Edgcott Cottages, Exford TA24

Set in the centre of the postcard-perfect village of Exford—where wild ponies graze nearby and birdsong is your morning soundtrack—this beautiful four-bedroom cottage, built in the 1800s, is the kind of home that people dream about when they think of moving to the country.

With sweeping views across the Exmoor hills, a large garden (currently home to some very well-loved chickens), and a peaceful position that still feels part of a warm and welcoming community, this is a home with heart.

Step through the front door and you’re greeted by a traditional hallway that immediately sets the tone. To your left, the living room is cosy yet spacious, with light streaming in and lovely views to enjoy all year round. It’s a space that calls out for log fires, good books, and evenings spent with family.

The open-plan kitchen and dining room stretches across the length of the house, offering an ideal hub for everyday life. Whether it’s a big family brunch, a quiet cup of tea overlooking the garden, or a Christmas dinner with all the trimmings—this space adapts beautifully. The oil-fired Rayburn adds warmth and character, as well as a practical cooking and heating solution. Just off the kitchen is a separate utility room and a modern downstairs shower room, adding practicality without compromising the charm.

Upstairs, there are four bedrooms—each offering its own unique view and feeling of calm. The two larger rooms would make fantastic main and guest bedrooms, while the smaller rooms are perfect for a home office, dressing room or children’s bedroom. The family bathroom is a good size, with a bath and separate shower—ideal for muddy boots or sandy feet after Exmoor adventures.

Outside, the property really shines. The garden is a generous size with lots of potential—whether you want chickens, vegetable beds, or just a peaceful spot to sit and take it all in. There’s also a garage, outbuilding, and ample parking—so you’ve got plenty of space for tools, toys or even a campervan.

The property benefits from double glazing throughout and is offered with no onward chain, ready to welcome its next owners without delay. And what a lifestyle you’ll have: Exford has 2 fantastic pubs, village store, tearooms, and access to some of the best walking, cycling, and riding trails in the country. It’s a place where the pace of life slows, the air is fresh, and community matters.
