Moortown is a collection of barn conversions originally
converted in the 1980s. The use of local stone retains the history
and character of these beautiful buildings and over time, many
homes, including this one have been updated again since they were
first converted. Its a well positioned property, with Chawleigh
less than a mile away and just a couple of miles from Chulmleigh
and its amenities. The Tarka line train connecting Exeter
Barnstaple is nearby in Eggesford too. The property is away from
busy roads and would suit both full time residents or indeed those
who see it as a base from which to explore this wonderful area.
No.4 is an end terrace barn which was designed as reverse level.
The entrance hall gives access on the ground floor to the double
bedroom and bathroom which has underfloor heating. Theres built in
storage too and access from the bedroom to outside. On the first
floor is an open plan living space with kitchen dining area and a
living area, all brilliantly designed and even incorporates room
for a work station! Theres plenty of light with windows on 3 sides
and a door to a small balcony takes in the beautiful views. In
addition to the living and aforementioned bedroom, theres a clever
additional mezzanine level, accessed by wooden steps and this
provides additional floor area. The whole barn has been updated by
the current owner and is ready to move into.
To the side is off road parking and there are further visitor
spaces within the complex , the shared inner courtyard is a
maintained space in which residents can relax and enjoy.
Agents Note There is an annual payment of £300 payable to the
management company which covers communal areas including the drive
and shared gardens, plus the running and maintenance of the private
drainage system meaning lower water bills.
Please see the floorplan for room sizes.
