Converted approx. 8 years ago, this barn conversion has since
been extended and improved by the current owners to create a
wonderful family home with all you could need and right on the edge
of the Town. A short walk down the hill and youre into North
Tawton, connected by bus to Okehampton, Crediton and Exeter, there
are also shops, cafes and sports clubs making it a great semi rural
location from which to explore Devon.<⁄p>
The barn itself was converted to connect you back to its
origins, with exposed block work and timber cladding, this barn
isnt pretending to be anything its not! But dont worry, the cows
are long gone and these days its a modern, light and spacious home
which is sure to attract a variety of buyers. The initial entrance
hall is welcoming, an ideal place to take off your boots and coat
and explore whats on offer. The entrance is on a split level so
down just a few steps and youre into the main living space a
wonderful large room, zoned into the living room and kitchen areas.
There is lots of glass and the eye is instantly drawn to the
garden, fields and Dartmoor beyond. There is a large island making
this room the hub of the home and then an opening takes you into
the extension which is now the family room. Again, with the large
glass windows and doors, you cant help but admire the view and on a
colder winter evening, the corner wood burner really comes into
play. Somewhat hidden on first glance, either side of the media
wall, are doors to a flexible space. Currently used as a large home
office, there are loads of options for how this rooms could be
used. It did used to be two offices hence two doors in but is now
one larger room. To complete the ground floor is a useful utility
room and WC, again as youd expect in a house of this
type.<⁄p>
On the first floor are the bedrooms, 3 of which are double rooms
and of a similar size. These rooms share the family bathroom. At
the end of the landing is the master suite, a light room with
amazing views and plenty of space. A stand alone wall creates a
separate dressing area with a huge walk in wardrobe and there is
also a beautiful ensuite. Its a real sanctuary up here and with
room to retreat if needed from busy family life!<⁄p>
Outside, the entrance drive provides ample parking for a number
of cars plus there is room for a motorhome or caravan. There is a
detached timber garage with a workshop too. The garden is on two
levels, the higher lawn has planted beds and a greenhouse and the
lower garden access from higher garden or from the kitchen⁄family
home has lawns, a wild flower garden, planted beds and all borders
onto the surrounding countryside with those Dartmoor
views.<⁄p>
It‘s a super house, great space inside and out and a real one
off!<⁄p>
