East Street, North Molton, South Molton, Devon, EX36

3 Higher Locks is a charming, Grade II Listed cottage, beautifully maintained and part of a picturesque row of three traditional thatched homes. Set in an elevated, south-facing position in the village of North Molton, it offers an idyllic living space or holiday retreat. The property is available with no onward chain.

The cottage is accessed via stone steps leading to a thatched entrance porch and stable door, opening into a character-filled sitting room. This room boasts exposed beams, a window seat, and a 'Woodwarm' multi-fuel burner, making it a standout feature of the home. A few steps lead to a lobby area, where there is space for a washing machine, an under-stairs cupboard, the boiler, and stairs to the first floor. The ground floor also includes a kitchen/diner with a stable door opening to the rear garden. The kitchen is well-equipped with well fitted wooden wall and base units, a continuous worktop with tiled splashback, and a sink and drainer. It features an integrated hob with extractor hood, an electric oven, an integrated fridge freezer, and a dishwasher, plus space for a dining table and chairs.

Upstairs, a split-level landing leads to two double bedrooms, a bathroom, and a storage cupboard. The main bedroom is a spacious double with a front-facing gothic-style window and exposed timber beams. The second bedroom is also a generously sized double with dual aspect windows, and ample space for furniture. The partly tiled bathroom includes a WC, washbasin, and a bath with a shower attachment.

At the rear of the property is a tiered, low-maintenance garden, primarily laid with patio slabs and complemented by sections of established plants and shrubs. The top tier offers distant views of the surrounding countryside, providing a serene outdoor space to enjoy.
