Hidden behind lovely stone walls and full height gates which lead into the courtyard, Elm Park Barn is centrally yet privately and peacefully located in this popular South Devon village. With original beams, deep oak windowsills and lovely solid oak flooring throughout, together with traditional door and window fittings no attention to detail has been left out.
Entering through the solid oak front door into the hallway there are stairs ahead with cupboard under, and a WC just to the right. Following on to the right is a lovely study/home office with windows and stable door to the courtyard. Off this is the utility room with a sink and space for a washing machine and dryer, plus wall mounted cupboards. It also houses the oil fired Potterton boiler and hot water tank and is a good drying room.
From the front door turning left leads you into the characterful kitchen which has been beautifully designed to maximum the space in this long room having fitted floor and wall units, a corner 1 ½ bowl stainless steel sink, large Brittania 6 hob range with double ovens, integrated fridge, freezer, dishwasher and wine fridge. With double glazed timber framed windows onto and French windows into the courtyard this is a gloriously light room. The dining area has plenty of room for a large dining table, which then opens into the cosy and yet bright sitting room. This is a generous sized room, with statement red Woodburner on a slate hearth with wooden surround, French windows lead out to a seating area creating a really wonderful room in which to while away the day or evening. From here there is a second staircase which leads up to the master bedroom.
On the first floor off a cosy landing area is the master bedroom which has a dual aspect overlooking the courtyard and garden and is full of light and character. It has fitted wardrobes and an immaculate fully tiled ensuite with large walk-in shower. Also from the landing is the family bathroom with free-standing bath and a statement papered wall, veluxes allow much light and it has a jack and jill door which leads through to Bedroom 3. This is a lovely cosy double room also with views over the courtyard garden. A door leads out to another landing area from which Bedroom 2 is reached, which has fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room.
Across the Courtyard is the Coach House which now houses a striking one bedroom annex that has open plan living accommodation with double height ceilings on the ground floor with fitted kitchen, and lots of space for a table and seating around the modern wood burner. Steps lead up to a first floor mezzanine with large sleeping area and en suite bathroom. With a wall of windows overlooking the garden this is a very attractive annex and perfect for guests or for providing an extra income.
Adjoining this is the garage/workshop which houses the boiler for the annex and has double timber doors onto the courtyard.
Outside
A huge feature of this property is the wonderful courtyard which provides gravelled parking, flagstone seating areas, and brick and paved walkways including a long honeysuckle covered path dividing the lawned area from the parking. Together with various flower and herb beds, there is a large pond and some well established fruit trees including a fig, pear and plum which grow up alongside the lovely walls surrounding the property.
Situation
Broadhempston is a large village in South Devon which is renowned for its good community. The locally run village shop together with the two popular public houses, and respected Primary School, rated Outstanding by Ofsted, have made it a popular choice for anyone looking in this area. Conveniently located for access to both Totnes with its plethora of restaurants, bars and lovely independent local shops, and Newton Abbot with its larger retail outlets, there is also easy access to the A38 Devon Expressway, and as both towns benefit from mainline railway stations there is good and easy access to the National Railway Network with direct trains to London Paddington.
Services – Oil fired central heating, with LPG gas for the cooker, mains electricity and water.

Tenure – Freehold

Directions – Leave Totnes on the A381 Newton Abbot Road. Turn left opposite Red Post Garage and follow this road for approximately 1.5 miles until reaching a crossroads. Go straight across and follow this road down and up hill into the village. Turn left by the shop on the corner and the property is just past the school on the right.
