Spacious, flexible rural home with huge gardens and stables near Exmoor.
Backs onto East Lyn River with private jetty and fishing rights
Little Mead is a mature detached chalet-style cottage set on a very large plot at the fringe of Brendon, backing directly onto the East Lyn River. The house offers flexible accommodation over two floors with a ground-floor bedroom, two first-floor bedrooms, two reception rooms, and generous kitchen/breakfast and utility spaces — suitable as a principal home, second base or holiday let. The garden is private and sweeping, with a deck/jetty to the river, an orchard, and a triple stable block.
Practical strengths include ample off-street parking, fishing rights to the river, oil-fired central heating supplemented by electric heaters, and double glazing. The property is freehold and currently business rated, reflecting its recent use as a holiday/lets base. Its location inside Exmoor National Park gives excellent access to walking, riding and coastal amenities at Lynton and Lynmouth about 4 miles away.
Important constraints are clear: the plot and riverside position place the site at high flood risk, which will affect insurance and any future works. Mobile signal is effectively non-existent and broadband speeds are very slow, limiting remote working without alternative connectivity solutions. Heating runs on an oil boiler (private tank) and the property sits in an ageing rural area; some services are limited locally.
Overall, Little Mead will particularly appeal to buyers seeking rural privacy, outdoor space and river frontage, or those wanting a holiday/letting property with established accommodation. Buyers should factor in flood implications, connectivity shortfalls and ongoing maintenance of a large garden, orchard and outbuildings when considering purchase.
