An exquisite two bedroom stone barn conversion recently converted with far reaching views and a paddock below

Situation - The property is situated close to the old centre of the pretty South Hams village of Marldon bordering some of South Devon's most picturesque rolling countryside. Marldon is full of history and character and is well served by two good pubs, village shops and post office, a well-regarded primary school, church and a very active community hall hosting various clubs. Plenty of countryside walks around the area are right on the doorstep whilst the sandy beaches of Torbay and the magnificent Dartmoor National Park are only a short distance away. The larger towns of Paignton, Torquay, Newton Abbot and Totnes are close by with mainline railway stations and wider amenities, whilst access to the A380 is easy linking to Exeter and the M5.

Description - Longpark Linhay has been meticulously converted by the vendor, retaining and repointing much of the original stonework to protect the character of the stone barn.

The barn has oil fired underfloor heating and a new slate roof. The property has been designed to make the most of the far reaching views and will most likely appeal to second home owners or as a holiday let investment.

A significant selling feature of the property is the unrivalled far reaching rural views from the property together with its large expansive private terrace to enjoy these views.

There is a range of well fitted cupboards with soft close doors, a ceramic hob with an extractor over. This room is spacious with exposed ceiling timbers and a lino wood effect floor running throughout. This open plan room has a corridor leading to the family shower room with a corner quadrant shower, and two double bedrooms. One of the rooms is set up as a twin bedroom and one as the main double bedroom

Outside - The property benefits from a large patio area with raised flowerbeds and is the perfect spot to enjoy the far reaching views. This area benefits from outside lighting with an outside double power socket, which could by used to run an electric powered hot tub. To the side of the barn is the external Grant oil-fired boiler.

The gently sloping paddock is accessible from the entrance drive and extends to about 0.7 acres in total.

There is plenty of off road parking for many vehicles, with the additional of an electric cable, which has been laid in readiness for an EV car charging point, if the purchaser wishes to connect one. The electrically controlled entrance gates have attractive stone- faced pillars, where there is a built-in parcel and letterbox.

Services - The house benefits from underfloor oil-fired central heating, mains water and a private sewage treatment plant for drainage. Internet is via a Poynting router, providing between 3 and 10mb download speeds. There is a right of way up the lane to the property for all purposes.
