Lynnfield is located in the popular Dartmoor village of Lustleigh which is undoubtedly one of the most picturesque and unspoilt villages in Devon and sits in the beautiful Wrey valley within the Dartmoor National Park. The village has a thriving community centred around the Parish church and there is also a Methodist chapel, village shop with Post Office, the Cleave Public house and a village hall. There is an active village cricket team who play on a most attractive pitch adjacent to the Cleave Pub. Local primary schools can be found in Ilsington, Moretonhampstead and Bovey Tracey, whilst the renowned independent Stover School is just seven miles away.
Due to its positioning within the Dartmoor National Park, there is wonderful potential for riding, cycling and walking direct from the property. Dartmoor National Park covers an area of 368 square miles and features hills, valleys, granite tors and rivers, providing a dazzling backdrop to a range of outdoor activities. Exeter, approximately 15 miles away is the most thriving city in the South West, offering a wide choice of cultural activities with the theatre, the museum, arts centre and a wealth of good shopping, including John Lewis, and an ever expanding number of restaurants. There is also a Waitrose supermarket in the city. Many primary and secondary schools can be found in Exeter including Exeter School and The Maynard; whilst Exeter University is recognised as one of the best universities in the country.
Lynnfield has the benefit of a stone-built workshop/store with a one bedroom annexe and en suite shower above, providing excellent additional accommodation for guests or for letting via Airbnb. The property has a driveway leading to a separate timber-framed, slate-roofed carport with two ev charging points, providing ample space to park, also with an attractive strip of garden adjacent.
The garden is thoughtfully landscaped, enclosed by low hedges and looks out onto the verdant fields and woodland beyond. The rear paved terrace is elevated by a traditional stone wall and offers the perfect spot to dine al fresco and entertain whilst enjoying wonderful views. There is a pretty rockery adorned with various colourful plants, as well as an area of neat level lawn. Well thought-out and maintained flowerbeds border the edges of the garden and create interest, whilst several trees add height. Another space beside the terrace offers the ideal spot for a vegetable garden and contains a wooden framed octagonal greenhouse.
