Set well back in a semi-rural hamlet, this stone-built barn conversion offers characterful living with a large, private garden and far-reaching countryside views. The house is arranged over two floors with an open-plan living/dining room, woodburning stove, a practical kitchen with utility area, and three double bedrooms upstairs. It is offered with no onward chain and lies a short drive from Exeter and nearby Crediton.
The plot is a standout feature: extensive lawns, mature shrubs and trees, an ornamental pond and a tucked-away summerhouse create private outdoor space rare for village locations. Off-street parking, a car port and log store add practical convenience. The property’s period stone walls, slate roof and barn conversion details give it strong curb appeal.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property has an EPC rating of D, assumed uninsulated granite walls, and slow broadband. It also sits in a high flooding-risk area — landscaping, insurance and flood resilience should be considered. There is a single family bathroom and some elements (heating efficiency, insulation, glazing dates unknown) that could benefit from updating.
This home will suit buyers looking for character and outdoor space close to Exeter — downsizers, small families or those seeking a peaceful rural base with scope to improve energy performance. It’s chain-free, offers immediate occupation potential, and rewards modest investment with strong lifestyle upside.
