Welcome to Myrtle Cottage a real little gem, full of character and charm. Originally an old chapel, the building has since been converted into two properties, while still retaining many of its lovely original features, from beautiful arched windows to a traditional Victorian fireplace.

Before you step inside, there is a very handy outdoor utility room, ideal for keeping everyday bits and pieces tucked away.

Entering the cottage, you are welcomed into a good-sized living room with a lovely side-aspect window, giving the room plenty of light. This leads through to a lovely sized kitchen, with plenty of room for a dining table, making it a great space for everyday family life and entertaining.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms in total one double bedroom and two single bedrooms. The front-facing single bedroom would also make an excellent home office or study, depending on your needs. There is also a family bathroom with a bath and shower over, wash basin and WC.

Outside, the cottage really comes into its own. The garden is private and peaceful, with a good-sized lawn and patio area surrounded by mature shrubs, making it a lovely place to sit and enjoy the garden. A few steps away, there is also a useful storage shed, providing that extra bit of space that is always handy.

Myrtle Cottage is a lovely home with plenty of character, a peaceful garden and flexible living space. It is the sort of property that has a warm and welcoming feel from the moment you arrive and is just waiting for someone to make it their own.

The surrounding area is equally appealing. There are many excellent walks in and around the neighbouring parishes of Dolton and Dowland, with the beautiful woodland and riverside paths of Halsdon Nature Reserve right on your doorstep. The renowned Tarka Trail, part of the National Cycle Network Route 27 (Devon Coast to Coast), can be joined at Meeth or Petrockstowe, offering traffic-free cycling all the way to Bideford, Instow, Braunton and beyond.

The regional centres of Barnstaple and Bideford are around half an hour away by car, while the stunning North Devon coastline and its beautiful beaches are within forty minutes – popular with surfers, dog walkers and body boarders alike. Both Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks are under an hour away, making it easy to see why North Devon is such a sought-after place to live.
