Quietly situated within the picturesque Cockington Country Park, Little Cob is a charming Grade II listed countryside property that captures the essence of the local area. Quaint Characterful Barn Conversion, Well-Presented Accommodation, Lovely Location - Ideal for Dog Walkers, Two Bedrooms, Two Bathrooms, Low Maintenance Rear Courtyard, Allocated Parking & Visitor Spaces, Council Tax Band D, EPC Band E, Freehold.
Situation & Description - Quietly situated within the picturesque Cockington Country Park, Little Cob is a charming Grade II listed countryside property that captures the essence of the local area. This delightful home offers well-presented rooms, including two comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, a bright and airy kitchen/breakfast room, and a generous sitting room perfect for cosy gatherings by the fire. The south-facing rear courtyard provides a peaceful outdoor retreat, ideal for morning coffee or evening relaxation, and requires minimal maintenance. With allocated parking and its unique setting amidst scenic landscapes and walking trails, Little Cob offers a rare opportunity to enjoy countryside charm while still being within easy reach of local amenities.
Little Cob is situated in the idyllic village of Cockington, hidden in a deep valley just one mile from the bustle of Torquay where there are golden beaches, cliff walks, golf courses and plenty of recreational facilities. Cockington is often referred to as the most beautiful village in England, and is the epitome of the chocolate box postcard English village. With more than its fair share of thatched houses, a lovely old pub, village shops and local businesses, Cockington is really somewhere very different. Surrounded by Torquay, it retains its individuality and rural charm. This is a unique opportunity to live in a country paradise, yet only a short distance from the centre of one of England's favourite resorts, and within walking distance from the beach.
Nearby Torquay is situated on the South Devon coast and was a grand anchorage favoured by the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars. Torquay soon benefited from their presence as smart lodging houses were built to accommodate the officers. With a south-facing aspect, miles of sandy beaches and the arrival of the railway in 1848, its growth as a holiday destination for the rich and famous was spectacular. Tor Bay was chosen for the 1948 Olympic sailing events and the harbour with its large marina, elegant Georgian terraces, palm trees and subtropical gardens, remains the most attractive area.
Accommodation - This beautifully presented property offers a warm and inviting layout, ideal for anyone looking for character and a quiet courtyard setting. As you step into the hallway, you're greeted with easy access to the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room and a convenient downstairs shower room. A few steps up lead to the impressive lounge/diner, which features a charming fireplace with a decorative mantel. This versatile space is ideal for both relaxing and entertaining, with ample room for a dining table and chairs. Double doors open out to a private rear courtyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow, perfect for alfresco dining or enjoying a peaceful morning coffee.
The kitchen/breakfast room is thoughtfully designed, offering a range of matching wall and base units complemented by tiling. There's space for a freestanding cooker with a cooker hood above, as well as room for a washing machine and a slimline dishwasher, while the windows overlooking the front aspect bring in plenty of natural light. Upstairs, the property boasts two well-proportioned bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes for ample storage. The master bedroom features a front-facing double-glazed window, while the second bedroom enjoys natural light from a rear elevation Velux window. The well-presented family bathroom is fully tiled and equipped with a panelled bath, mixer tap, WC, and wash hand basin.

About this agent
Stags Torquay office is situated in Vaughan Parade, overlooking the harbour, with plenty of parking nearby in the Torquay marina car park. One of three beautiful towns forming the sheltered Tor Bay, Torquay is renowned for its warm climate, clear bathing waters and clean air. The local beaches form a golden arc around the bay with shingle coves scattered nearby. Torquay became fashionable for Naval officers and other affluent families during the first half of the 19th Century, which prompted the building of many large stylish villas and exclusive hotels. Today, Torquay is well served with direct rail links and by road via the A380 to the major cities of Exeter (22 miles) and Plymouth (38 miles). The town provides a wonderful quality of life for its residents with excellent shopping, waterside restaurants, a theatre and bars. Internationally renowned water sports are held in the sheltered deep water bay, with the marina providing excellent mooring facilities for luxury yachts and small motor cruises. The area has many scenic walks along South Devon's Jurassic coastal footpaths and there are a number of local golf courses within close reach. A short distance to the north is the magnificent Dartmoor National Park.
