House For Sale £800,000
The property itself is a five / six bedroom semi-detached barn conversion, with generous living areas throughout including a large kitchen / dining room & two living rooms both boasting fireplaces, three bathrooms in total, with utility and a bar / workshop area as the main accommodation.Middle Woolsgrove also has a large barn to its disposal, perfect for a large workshop / garage. To tie this all together, the stunning home sits within 4.55 acres of mature woodlands, gardens and meadow all with far reaching views.
From the parking area that can accommodate multiple vehicles you can enter the house via the initial entrance hall or the bar / workshop area. The first entrance hall allows us access the generous utility area, perfect for your white goods and food store. Another doorway to the property is just a few steps away that gives access to the large concrete yard and cob outbuilding, that is located opposite the second stairs case that gives access to the first floor, and the downstairs cloakroom with large shower unit that is perfect for washing off the dogs after a long walk!
A large kitchen that measures in at 25'7ft long, and 12'7ft wide is arguably the most impressive room in the property, with exposed beams that run the full length of the room towards the heartbeat of the home, the Aga. There is generous space for free standing worktop on all four sides of the room, which allows as much customizability as you would possibly need, while taking advantage of the five large windows that allow bundles of light to bounce through. The kitchen is such a large room that there is plenty of floor space to fit a large table for a more sociable style of living. From the kitchen the bar / workshop area is located along side, that adjoins the meadow, parking and access to the front gardens.
There are two further reception rooms, both currently being used as living rooms with their own individual and unique fireplace, but they could easily be split into one living room and one dining room. The living room next to the kitchen is home to a more traditional wood burner, whereas the living room has a integral heatilator fireplace that recycles cold and hot air, to keep the room incredibly warm. Just beyond the living room is a further room which could be used as a office or the sixth bedroom. The two reception rooms are split by a bright mezzanine hallway with an open modern oak stairs case that takes us to the first floor. Access to the front courtyard, and rear patio are also available.
On the first floor are five double bedrooms, all with exposed beams and beautiful a-frames that add immense character to the more modern level. Down one wing there are two double bedrooms and a modern family shower room, and to the other are a further two double bedrooms and a family bathroom as well as the master bedroom that has availability for an en-suit at the owners own disposal.
To me, the most incredible feature that Middle Woolsgrove has is the versatility that it can provide. With so many different varieties of lifestyle at its fingertips with the potential for a family that need space to be able to let loose all of their energy in the endless wooded area and gardens, to the individuals who like the idea of being self sufficient, to the polar opposite of people who are looking for a sizeable home with an outbuilding for the perfect workshop. There is endless opportunity and Middle Woolsgrove will suit everyone.
The outside space at Middle Woolsgrove is breathtaking. As soon as you step foot out onto the patio area, at any time of the day and are greeted with that incredible landscape, and the true definition of rolling farmland, as it intertwines with itself for miles upon miles.
The outside space is made up of a mixture of mature wooded areas, with hidden pockets that have been created in the 34 year ownership and generous laid lawn areas. The initial garden is where the majority of the time is currently spent, with space for plenty of seating, a fire pit and perfect position for a BBQ while the Devon countryside entices you to explore more. Furthermore around the corner, there is a large area that is home to chickens and geese currently, with another large lawn area before entering a beautiful and hidden copse. This guides us towards a hidden section of ground circa. 0.7 acres which has a wide variety of fruit trees, and is a perfect area to take in the view of Sidmouth Gap, some 30 miles away!Sandford is a popular village location for many reasons. Boasting a village school and pre-school, with a community run post office and local shop as well as the village Church.
