House For Sale £895,000
A substantial four bedroom detached Grade II listed rural property package set in beautiful countryside within 2.32 acres.
This beautiful Grade II listed home has been extensively extended and improved over the years to form a substantial family home. The character of the original house has been embraced and enhanced alongside quality fixtures and fittings in the more modern extension.
The impressive kitchen/dining room extension is the heart of this wonderful home fitted with underfloor heating and locally crafted individual kitchen units. The kitchen is centred around a large island unit with an induction hob and electric oven, there is an oil-fired Aga, integrated dishwasher and a double Belfast style sink, either side of which is a matt finished granite surface. The large room has French doors opening to the patio and plenty of space for a substantial table and chairs as well as a sofa. Part of this space has been partitioned off to form a separate space which has been used as an occasional guest bedroom.
Back into the original part of the house is the sitting room with exposed beams and a stone inglenook fireplace which surrounds a contemporary wood burner. Also on the ground floor there is a utility room with clay tiled floor and a really useful boot room. Between the kitchen and lounge there is another space that has been previously used as a study.
On the first floor a large landing has a loft hatch and doors to three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and access to a large void area with a huge amount of storage. Worthy of note, the loft has been boarded and has light and power.
The property is located in a wonderful rural location between the villages of Plymtree, Broadhembury and Payhembury. These villages all have well regarded primary schools, pubs, churches, village halls, recreation fields and each with a community run shop. The town of Cullompton (5 miles) has a wider range of shops and facilities including a Tesco supermarket, whilst access can be gained onto the M5 (junction 28). The market town of Honiton also has a good range of amenities. The university and cathedral city of Exeter has the shopping, sports, recreational and night life opportunities that one would expect of a County Capital, together with a wide choice of state and private education and hospitals.
There are railway stations on the London Paddington line at Exeter and Tiverton Parkway (junction 27 of the M5) with stations on the London Waterloo line at Honiton, Feniton and Exeter. The East Devon coast is accessible, lying 11 miles to the south, offering a wide range of recreation opportunities including walking on the coastal path and sailing clubs at Beer and Sidmouth.
A real feature of this property package is its outside space and the amazing views all around it. A sweeping drive leads to a tarmac parking area for several cars in front of the double car port with double gates leading through to the stable area and paddock. The gardens are set predominantly to the west of the house with a landscaped entertaining space with patio, gravel paths, a pond and attractive planting. Beyond is the expansive lawns which are surrounded by mature hedges. The property backs on to open fields with a Devon bank.
Open fronted car port and bedroom four/bed and breakfast. Attractive open fronted car port with a secure utility space and fitted WC. Accessed via an external stair case the fourth bedroom which is currently used as a popular bed and breakfast. This beautifully presented space includes windows that overlook rolling countryside and a modern en-suite shower room. To the side is a log store. Behind the building is a small orchard and chicken run.
Stable Block. The stable block has two good sized loose boxes, a large tack room (which has been insulated and is currently used as a music room), two kennels, and a large store which has been made into an extremely useful workshop. To the front is a concrete yard area partly enclosed with post and rail fencing.
The Land. Beyond the gardens and stable block is a gently sloping paddock. The current owners have fenced part of this off and created a very productive growing area with raised beds and a green house. There is also a separate poly tunnel area across from this.
