Stableways is a substantial family home set in about 3.45 acres of gardens and paddock, designed around leisure and entertaining. The layout includes multiple reception rooms, a large conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room and versatile ground-floor bedrooms ideal for multigenerational living or guests. Outdoor facilities include a recently resurfaced all-weather tennis court, extensive lawns and specimen planting that create private, sheltered garden ‘rooms’. Solar panels generate income; an air source heat pump provides main heating.
Leisure amenities are a major draw: a detached pool house with an indoor heated swimming pool, sauna and shower/changing room, plus a beachcomber hot tub (currently needing repair). The pool heating is run from an oil-fired boiler separate to the house, which should be considered when budgeting running costs. There are three single garages, generous parking and vehicular access from gated entries.
Practical points to note: drainage is via two septic tanks and broadband speeds in the area are slow. Council Tax is Band F, reflecting the property's size and running costs. The pool building offers conversion potential to single-storey accommodation subject to planning. Overall, this is a large, well-presented rural home for buyers seeking space, leisure facilities and privacy close to Barnstaple.
