Delight in the tranquillity and charm of this period detached house situated in a picturesque rural setting. Boasting three bedrooms, this property promotes a comfortable and cosy feel, making it a truly inviting and homely retreat. Exuding character throughout with exposed beams, a log burning stove as well as an open fire and solid fuel burning Rayburn, low doorways and exposed stone walls, what’s not to like? This lovely home has been sympathetically extended by the current owner to provide yet more space for an expanding family. For those that are truly looking to get away from it all, North Down Farm goes a long way to be pretty much off grid so you really can keep yourself to yourself!
Nestled in a peaceful and quiet location within the rolling hills of the North Devon scenery, enjoy stunning views of the surrounding countryside from the comfort of your own home. Gaze out over the paddock where you will often catch a glimpse of the Roe dear frolicking on the woodlands edge. There is an abundance of wildlife, not least an array of colourful garden birds who’s song fills the air. The property features a well-maintained garden, paddock, parking/garage, and several outbuildings, providing ample space for outdoor activities and storage.
Whether you seek a secluded getaway or a serene permanent residence, this property offers the best of both worlds. Don't miss the opportunity to own this idyllic countryside retreat.
The vendor informs us that the property is of stone and cob construction under a slate roof . Your surveyor or conveyancer may be able to clarify further following their investigations. The property is serviced by a solid fuel burning Rayburn powering radiators in the house as well as heating the water. There is an additional immersion heater. Other forms of heating include a multi fuel burning stove in the living room and an open fire one in the sitting room. Mains electric supplemented by solar panels service the house and the water is supplied from a spring in the adjoining farm.
Broadband: Standard speeds available up to 4 mbps. This could be increased with the use of air band (Information taken from Ofcom checker)
Mobile phone: Coverage is likely indoors and out with certain providers (see Ofcom checker for further information)
The lane to the property from the main road is owned by the adjoining farm. The vendor informs us that there is a vehicular right of way to the house.
Directions
From Torrington proceed in a southerly direction on the A386 signposted Hatherleigh/Okehampton across the river bridge and up mile hill the other side. Continue on this road past Smytham Holiday park and the Gribble on your right hand side. Keep following the road passing Huntshaw Farm and Northdown on your left. Shortly after the road will bend right. At this point turn left on the track through a five bar gate continuing to its conclusion to the cottage.
