The School House represents a unique and versatile four bedroomed semi-detached character property which has been the subject of significant improvement by the current vendors in recent years, providing charming and deceptively spacious accommodation. As the name suggests the property was a former Victorian school house which was subsequently converted and enlarged into this individual dwelling. The former adjoining village school was also converted into a residential dwelling. School House exhibits some attractive period features whilst blending quality modern finishes and living.
The adaptable accommodation may suit a variety of needs, appealing to families, catering for dual occupancy living or indeed to provide income potential, with two ground floor double bedrooms. On the ground floor; entrance porch, hallway with stairs to first floor, large living room with patio doors and woodburning stove, inner hall/study which opens through to the superb 'L' shaped and modern fitted kitchen/dining room enjoying natural light with the additional of three skylight windows. A useful boot room/utility adjoins the kitchen together with a walk in pantry. A hallway from the dining area leads to two double bedrooms and a smartly appointed ground floor shower room which acts as a jack & jill to the bedroom and dining area. The first floor provides two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
For layout and approximate room measurements please see the enclosed floorplan and refer to the Virtual Tour.
THE GARDENS
Approached from the village lane, School House is elevated from the road and enjoys some distant views. Unrestricted parking is available to the front and side of the property where the vendors currently park. The gardens wrap around the front, side and rear elevations providing a variety of sitting out areas, designed for ease of upkeep. The front garden is laid mainly to lawn with patio area. Two pedestrian gates lead to the lane and on road parking. To the side are further patio areas including a raised paved space adjoining the living room French doors and the garden leads to a rear courtyard space which contains a useful timber garden store shed. The pretty garden areas enjoy privacy and seclusion.
We understand that historically the property benefitted from a driveway/off road parking and it is thought that this could be reinstated, if required and subject to obtaining any necessary consents.
THE AREA
School House is located towards the edge of the rural yet accessible village of Burrington. A pretty hilltop settlement equidistant of Exmoor & Dartmoor National Parks, just 2 miles from the A377 and Kings Nympton train station linking Barnstaple to Exeter.
