PROPERTY SUMMARY Set along a quiet no through lane, within a few minutes walk from Chudleigh high street, is Hurlock Cottage. A gloriously light and quirky converted riding stables offering an appealing blend of character, practicality and low-maintenance living. The accommodation has been designed to make best use of the available rooms, creating a home that feels easy to use, straightforward to maintain and well suited to either full-time family home, a Devon base or continued use as a furnished holiday let.

The property has been successfully used as a holiday let, with the seller advising a strong letting history over the past five years. Its tucked-away position, parking within the undercroft and access to Chudleigh's town amenities make it a particularly convenient option for guests and owners alike.

Internally, the ground floor is finished with solid bamboo parquet flooring, giving the space a warm, distinctive feel while remaining practical and easy to care for. The overall arrangement has been considered with simplicity in mind, keeping cleaning and day-to-day management to a minimum.

There is no garden, which will suit buyers wanting a lock-up-and-leave home without garden maintenance. The undercroft provides a covered space with electricity which could be used for parking, as a work area or for children's play. The property also has efficient electric heating.

Chudleigh is a well-regarded Devon town with a strong community, local facilities and excellent access to open countryside. The town council highlights a choice of walks around Chudleigh, including scenic lanes, forest trails and river routes, while Dartmoor National Park offers extensive walking routes from tors and ancient woodland to villages and valleys. Haldon Forest Park is also nearby, offering walking, cycling and outdoor activities just off the A38. 

ACCOMMODATION The entrance hall gives an immediate sense of the cottage's practical layout, with the kitchen/dining room forming the main ground floor living space. Light, bright and easy to use, it offers plenty of room for cooking, dining and relaxed everyday living, with space for a table as well as a sofa, reading corner or children's area if required.

Also on the ground floor is one of the two bathrooms, adding to the practicality of the layout and helping the property work well for both short-stay guests and full-time use.

The flooring to this level includes solid bamboo parquet, adding warmth, texture and a sense of quality underfoot while remaining a durable and easy-care choice for a property designed to be simple to use and maintain.

The kitchen/breakfast room sets the tone for the cottage - simple, stylish and carefully considered.

This is the practical heart of the property, arranged to make everyday use feel easy, with space for cooking, preparing breakfast, making coffee and sitting down for a relaxed meal before heading out into Chudleigh or the surrounding countryside. The kitchen is designed to be clean-lined and efficient, with everything close to hand and no wasted space. It suits the rhythm of the cottage perfectly: manageable and straightforward, yet warm and inviting rather than purely functional.

From the ground floor, stairs rise to the first floor. The lounge is laid out with a great view to the front, giving the cottage a more individual and relaxed feel than a conventional layout. This is the space where the cottage becomes more than simply practical. The lounge provides room to unwind, read, work quietly or settle in after time spent walking, exploring the town or visiting the surrounding countryside. For holiday guests, the layout is memorable and easy to enjoy. For an owner-occupier, it gives the home personality without making it complicated. The accommodation remains compact and manageable, but the upstairs sitting room adds a sense of separation and purpose that works particularly well.

The sleeping accommodation continues the cottage's thoughtful use of space, with rooms that feel calm, simple and easy to enjoy. The main bedroom provides a comfortable place to retreat at the end of the day. Its proportions suit the nature of the cottage well, offering a restful room without unnecessary complication. The second and third bedrooms give the property valuable family accommodation.

The cottage is served by two modern bathroom facilities, an excellent practical advantage for a three-bedroom property and particularly useful for both families and guest stays. On the ground floor, the bathroom is positioned conveniently from the entrance area, close to the kitchen/breakfast room. Fitted with a modern white suite, it feels clean, fresh and easy to use, supporting the straightforward rhythm of the ground floor. Upstairs, the first floor shower room provides a further modern white suite, adding valuable convenience alongside the bedrooms and lounge. Together, the bathroom and shower room make the cottage feel well equipped and thoughtfully arranged.
