A beautifully refurbished and highly versatile residence, occupying a tucked-away yet central position within the sought-after coastal town of Lynton. Enjoying breath-taking views across the town, coastline and surrounding Exmoor landscape, the property offers a rare blend of character, flexibility, quality accommodation and further potential. Currently run as a successful holiday let, the property can be used either as one substantial home or as two separate units, making it ideal as a main residence with income potential, dual occupancy, multi-generational living or a continued holiday letting investment. Believed to date back to the early 1900s, Tarr Cottage has been vastly improved and sympathetically refurbished during the current owner’s 13-year tenure. The property presents attractive elevations of painted render, timber cladding and oak-framed double glazing beneath a slate roof, combining traditional character with a high-quality modern finish. The home has also been upgraded with sustainability in mind, benefiting from an air source heat pump, solar thermal and photovoltaic panels, oak-framed windows, timber cladding and additional insulation. The accommodation is arranged to provide a spacious main house together with an adjoining cottage, each offering beautifully presented and characterful living space. The main house is entered via an oak-framed porch into a large lounge/diner, a welcoming space with exposed beams, stone flooring and a feature fireplace with log burner, solid oak surround and slate hearth. There is ample room for dining, while stairs rise to the first floor with storage beneath. An attractive stained-glass wooden door leads through to the kitchen/breakfast room, which enjoys windows and patio doors to the front. The kitchen is fitted with bespoke shaker-style units, slate work surfaces, a double-bowl ceramic sink, integrated dishwasher, appliance space and a Lacanche range cooker set into the fireplace with extractor over. To the first floor, a large landing gives access to the bedrooms and bathroom, with solid wood flooring continuing throughout. The main bedroom is a dual-aspect room enjoying views over Lynton town, with a vaulted ceiling, built-in oak wardrobe and en-suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms within the main house, both enjoying attractive character features, including vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and skylights, with one bedroom also benefiting from direct sea and valley views. The family bathroom is stylishly appointed with a cast iron roll-top bath, mains-fed corner shower, tempered copper sink set within a solid oak storage unit and low-level WC. The adjoining cottage can be accessed either from the main house or independently via the patio garden, offering excellent flexibility. The accommodation includes an open-plan living space with sun room/dining area, vaulted ceiling, skylight, exposed beams, large oak-framed windows and double doors opening onto the patio garden. The kitchen area is fitted with oak work surfaces, storage, appliance space and a freestanding oven with four-ring hob. A cosy lounge features an oak-framed fireplace with log burner and slate hearth, while the dual-aspect bedroom benefits from fitted storage and an en-suite shower room. Externally, Tarr Cottage continues to impress, with two large terraces ideal for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply enjoying the exceptional outlook, with the added benefit of a wood fired hot-tub. There is very generous parking, a triple-bay car port and a useful storage room. A particularly exciting feature of the property is the extant planning consent for a striking contemporary coach house, incorporating garages with an office and gym/workshop beneath. The design includes a spectacular double-height glazed gable end to maximise the outstanding panoramic views across Lynton, the coastline and Exmoor. The scheme was created by the architect responsible for the prestigious Tors Park development in nearby Lynmouth, offering an exceptional opportunity to further enhance this already remarkable property. The property is connected to mains electricity, water and drainage. Heating is provided via an air source heat pump and thermal solar system, with solar PV panels providing additional electricity. Tarr Cottage represents a truly special opportunity to acquire a beautifully refurbished and adaptable coastal home in one of North Devon's most desirable Exmoor settings, complete with outstanding views, income potential, generous parking and exceptional future potential through the approved coach house development. Lynton and Lynmouth are among North Devon's most picturesque coastal locations, where Exmoor meets the sea. The property is conveniently positioned close to local amenities, including shops, cafés, restaurants and the famous cliff railway, which provides easy access down to Lynmouth with its attractive seafront and harbour. Barnstaple, Minehead and North Devon's renowned surfing beaches are all within comfortable driving distance, while the North Devon Link Road provides access onwards to the M5 and Tiverton Parkway railway station.
