A very pretty and well-presented, mid-terraced period cottage in a sought-after village close to Exmoor. Open porch, entrance lobby, living room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and shower room. Rear gardens. Council tax band C. Freehold.
Situation - 2 Higher Locks Cottage is set in the very much sought after village of North Molton, which offers an excellent range of village amenities including primary school, public house, two churches, garage/petrol station and excellent sports club. The long standing village shop and post office recently closed due to retirement but there is now an excellent community shop. The village is easily accessible to the A361 North Devon link road which provides a direct route to the regional centre of Barnstaple to the west and Tiverton to the south east and further on to the M5 (J 27) with Tiverton Parkway railway station on the Paddington line. The market town of South Molton is 3 miles and offers a good range of social, shopping and banking facilities together with schooling to secondary level.
The boundary of the Exmoor National Park is only one mile from the property and the renowned North Devon coastline and some of the best beaches in the country at Croyde, Saunton Sands and Woolacombe is also within easy reach by car.
Description - Set in the middle of a row of three thatched Grade II listed cottages, 'Cosy Nook' is a delightful period property of stone/cob elevations under a thatched roof (re-thatched in 2020) that offers plenty of character and is well-presented throughout. The cottage is considered ideal as a second home or weekend retreat but can equally be used as a permanent home if required.
Accommodation - Steps lead up to a storm PORCH and to the front door. An ENRANCE LOBBY has a part glazed door into the LIVING ROOM which has a large stone inglenook fireplace with tiled hearth and an oil-fired 'wood burner'.

Both bedrooms enjoy fine views away over the village to countryside beyond. The SHOWER ROOM is fitted with a pedestal wash basin, WC and corner shower cubicle.
