House For Sale £650,000
This charming farmhouse is situated on the edge of this desirable village surrounded by glorious Devon countryside. The village has excellent amenities which include a highly regarded primary school, a village Inn/Restaurant, an outdoor swimming pool and an active village hall. This idyllic setting does not mean the property is isolated, with both the M5 and A30 within easy reach providing swift access to the Cathedral city of Exeter and the coast. The local countryside provides excellent walking and horse riding facilities.
This 17th-century home has a wealth of character with many original features retained including exposed beams, rustic floors and feature fireplaces. A Victorian extension enables a highly versatile family home and would lend itself to be adapted to create an annex for an independent relative if ever required. The well-proportioned accommodation briefly comprises; reception hall leading to the spacious sitting room with feature Inglenook fireplace with inset wood burner stove and a similar sized dining room for more formal occasions. The open plan kitchen/breakfast room provides ample room for families to cook, dine and socialise together whilst admiring the pleasant views across the garden. The kitchen area is equipped with a range of painted oak fronted cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level allowing plenty of storage, along with granite worktops for food preparation. The traditional four oven oil-fired aga is inset in the original fireplace and a large utility/boot room offers additional storage and appliance space. A study area and ground floor shower room conclude the ground floor. The principal staircase leads to the landing with two spacious double bedrooms including the master bedroom with a large walk-in wardrobe/dressing room which could provide an en-suite facility if ever desired. The large family bathroom benefits from both a bath and separate shower cubicle and a second staircase leads to the third and fourth bedrooms with a small connecting door leading from the fourth bedroom to the second bedroom.
The outside has wonderful opportunities for a variety of businesses and has significant outbuildings including stables and partially converted dog kennels. The driveway allows room for plenty of vehicles including room for boats, caravans and access to the garage. The gardens and associated grounds extend to approximately four acres in total and includes a two acre paddock and the stables would provide equestrian possibilities. The formal garden has a large expanse of paving to provide a lovely environment to enjoy outdoor dining/entertaining in the summer months in an excellent degree of privacy and seclusion. There are mature flowerbeds with a variety of plants, shrubs and trees.
In all, a characterful property in need of refurbishment but has endless potential to provide a substantial family home with enough space to provide a home business or equestrian interests. Early viewing is strongly advised.
