Way House is a substantial Victorian detached home occupying a prominent plot on the edge of Shebbear. The house offers generous, well-proportioned rooms across three floors, including a bright garden room with bifold doors, a loft bedroom with en suite, and four double bedrooms — well suited to a growing family or multigenerational household. Character features such as sash-style windows, high ceilings and original fireplaces sit alongside modern refinements including engineered oak floors and an Aga in the fitted kitchen.
The large, landscaped gardens are a standout: formal lawns and a pond to the front, with low-maintenance chippings, raised beds, greenhouse and store to the rear. Practical benefits include a gated gravel driveway, double car port/garage and a PV solar array with a feed-in tariff. Services are a mix of mains electricity and water, private drainage via a bio-digester, and oil-fired central heating with underfloor heating in places.
Buyers should note a few material points: the property dates from 1864 with granite walls likely without built-in cavity insulation, the main heating is oil (not a community supply), and broadband speeds are reported slow. The property has an EPC C, very low local crime and sits in a quiet hamlet setting — ideal for those seeking rural life but less suitable for buyers requiring fast internet or an all-electric heating setup without further investment.
Overall Way House presents a rare chance to acquire a handsome period family home in a community-focused village, with scope to modernise energy efficiency and communications while enjoying versatile living space and extensive outdoor amenities.
