4 bedroom detached house for sale

Imagine drawing back the curtains and drinking your morning cup of tea under the majestic gaze of Exmoor Country Park. The views on a clear day are really something to behold. All the sights, smells and sounds of the country titivate your senses with the clucking of pheasants, squawking of buzzards and the morning dawn chorus of garden birds filling the air. Maybe I romanticise a little but even the most hardy of people will find themselves with a beaming smile from ear to ear. An unmistakable sense of calm and relaxation ensues as you finally realise that your Devon dream has become reality.

This beautiful barn has been sympathetically converted to provide a fantastic family home with very well proportioned and flexible living accommodation, so much so that it could suit dual occupancy for those that need to accommodate a live in relative or simply need space to entertain friends from further afield. My favourite part of the house is the very large farmhouse family kitchen, I can really imagine myself spending many a happy time gathering with friends and family enjoying good food and wine. A log burning stove adds to the ambience with a warm glow from the flickering flames, a real focal point of the room. From here you would retire to a beautifully appointed living room with large windows overlooking the rear garden that provide floods of natural light showing off the many character features of the room including a stone fronted open fireplace. If you would prefer to have your master bedroom as the wow room, Fisherton Barn will NOT disappoint. High vaulted, beamed ceilings, dual aspect windows an ensuite four piece bathroom and a half landing with dressing area are all incorporated in this wonderful space.

Practical too with three large reception rooms, three ensuites, a cloakroom, and a separate family bathroom. There is a triple garage with individual doors, two of which are electrically operated as well as having further parking for another three / four cars off road. The gardens surround the house and are beautifully planted with an array of flora and fauna. There is an ornamental pond and a large outbuilding ideal as a home studio or office.
