2 bed cottage for sale

Cofton Hill, Cockwood, Exeter, Devon EX6

Oyster Cottage

Wonderful harbour, estuary and countryside views are enjoyed from this deceptively spacious cottage set in the heart of the historic waterside village of Cockwood. This 17th century detached property has been run as a highly successful holiday let for ten years, yet would also suit a range of buyers looking for anything from a quiet bolthole or long-term let to a cosy permanent home in a friendly and vibrant village. Oyster Cottage is offered with no onward chain and briefly comprises a fitted kitchen, uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, spacious upstairs bathroom, two genuine double bedrooms, an attached enclosed courtyard, generous lounge/diner and separate utility room. It has been extensively renovated inside and out by the current owners, who report annual holiday let turnover of around £29,000. All contents can be included in the sale and an early viewing comes highly recommended.

Cockwood And Surrounding Areas

Cockwood boasts a picture postcard tidal harbour and a perennially popular 15th century gastro pub that was once the haunt of pirates and smugglers. The village lies on a main bus route, is only a mile from the nearest railway station and is just a 30-minute walk to the nearest Blue Flag beach. The Exe Estuary Trail cycle route runs around the harbour, as does the South West Coast Path, with the dog-friendly Dawlish Countryside Park also on the doorstep. The train from nearby Starcross reaches the centre of Exeter in 20 minutes, making commuting from Cockwood a cinch, and the dual-carriageway linked to the M5 motorway is a 10-minute drive away.
