Rose Cottage, located in Hansel near Slapton, Devon, presents as a charming character property. The stone exterior and wisteria-covered entrance create an idyllic image. The interior boasts features indicative of a traditional Devon cottage, such as exposed beams and a stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove. The kitchen and bathroom appear to be dated and may require renovation. The cottage benefits from two bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it suitable for a couple or small family.

The property’s main selling point is its picturesque location. It sits overlooking the Gara Brook, offering serene countryside views. However, its remoteness may be a drawback for those relying on public transport. The nearest schools are all several kilometers away, which might require car travel.

While the cottage has a small decked area and a potential outdoor space, it lacks substantial garden space. The accompanying planning permission for a new outbuilding (garage/workshop) could add practical value to the property. The property may benefit from updating in parts and the lack of precise square footage data makes a definitive judgement about its value per square foot impossible. In summary, Rose Cottage is a characterful property with a beautiful setting but requires careful consideration regarding the required modernisation, the lack of land and its remote location.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
