Description - We are delighted to offer for sale this exceptional detached property, located in one of the most sought after coastal villages in North Devon. Believed to have been built in the 1970's, this is the first time Cartlands has been on the market, having been in the same family since construction. Cartlands is situated in a private tucked away position, via a long 'no through' driveway shared by one other substantial property and enjoys an elevated position with views towards Braunton Burrows and Saunton. The property briefly comprises of a two bedroom detached reverse living house which is in in need of modernisation, a pair of two bedroom, attached single storey cottages with storage rooms below. There is an internal yard separating the two buildings with attached garaging, workshops and plenty of parking. There are extensive gardens to the rear and to the south of the entrance drive is an additional orchard measuring approximately 1.07 acres. A paddock of 4.1 acres lies below the house and this has a farming vehicular right of way over the field below, off Rectory Lane.
This is a fantastic one of a kind opportunity for a new owner to put their own stamp on. Although the property is in need of updating and general modernisation, it does offer tremendous scope for potential extension or development to create a grand designs style home, subject to planning permission. Furthermore, the property offers scope for a number of home and income uses, such as home with holiday lets or long term rentals. Alternatively, it could suit multi generational use by parts of the same family, or a combination of these uses.
