It occupies a tranquil and tucked away location with only a handful of neighbours and is surrounded by a patchwork of fields with far-reaching views. Enjoy a comfortable and relaxing break in this dog-friendly retreat set in beautiful rolling Devon countryside.
Originally two separate cob and stone barns the property has been sympathetically renovated and linked with a modern kitchen extension. You enter the property through the centrally located front door into a hallway that leads to the lower barn and the kitchen/living area.
The kitchen, with a lantern roof, seating and dining area with a large patio door that can be slid open to bring the outdoors in, is fully equipped with a double oven, 5 ring ceramic hob, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer, washing machine, dulce gusto coffee machine and even a popcorn maker! there is a small, single seat breakfast bar providing a spot to socialise or charge your devices using a USB socket. With a selection of board games and books this a great place to relax and look out onto the garden.
The lower barn hosts a large spacious double with a king bed and the addition of a daybed and TV and just off this is the other smaller bedroom which has a single bed. They share a roomy en-suite with a monsoon shower via jack and gill doors. Beds are dressed with plump pillows and soft white satin stripe cotton bed linen and the en-suite is full of luxury cotton bath towels. This all makes the lower barn a perfect family suite.
Outside there are two good sized lawn areas for outdoor games and a separate south facing patio area surrounded with fragment shrubs and fruit trees; with a Mexican style BBQ during the warmer months you can sit on the picnic bench and watch the sun set. There is additional seating on the patio area just outside the kitchen if you fancy having your morning coffee al fresco. The garden is fully enclosed with stock fencing and surrounded by farmland and the location is such that you’re unlikely to hear anything more than the rustle of leaves and the morning bird song. There is gated off-road parking for at least three cars.
