"A stunning Grade II listed family home, with 6 bedrooms and annexe potential, set in gardens and grounds of 3.66 acres. EPC D

Situation Haske Barton is in a rural setting with only three neighbours, about two miles from the centre of the historic market town of Crediton. With a population of about 21,500, the town has excellent amenities capable of meeting most day to day needs. These include a selection of local shops and businesses, GP, dental and veterinary surgeries, large Morrisons and Tesco supermarkets, a leisure centre and a farmers market. Exeter, the university and cathedral city, lies 9.5 miles away and provides a wealth of facilities, including excellent shopping, dining and recreational pursuits and mainline train stations with services to London, as well as an international airport to the east of the city.

Description Haske Barton is a Grade II listed Devon longhouse and was once one of the farmhouses on the historic Creedy Park estate, seat of the Davie family from about 1600 until the late 20th century. The house is thought to date back to the 16th century with later 17th century improvements, possibly undertaken when the Davie family became the new owners. It is built of rendered cob under a traditional thatched roof and has retained many original architectural fittings reflecting the house s long history. These include fine chamfered beams, picture rails plus several window seats and inglenook fireplaces.

Accommodation At the heart of the property is a beautifully renovated kitchen breakfast room that retains many of the original character features, such as the traditional fireplace now housing the oil fired AGA, with a bread oven still in place. A small induction hob is also available. Doors from the kitchen lead to a garden room with French doors opening to a patio area. The garden room also provides access to the utility room.
Off the kitchen is the drawing room, featuring a large inglenook fireplace. This light and welcoming room has dual aspect, providing lovely views over the land. Next door is the formal dining room, with another feature fireplace, beams, shutters, and a door leading to the formal entrance hall, which includes useful cupboard space and provides access to the formal sitting room, benefitting from large windows overlooking the garden and land, featuring an inglenook fireplace and original plasterwork. Double doors then lead to the main staircase.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom offers stunning views over the grounds and has a spacious ensuite with a free standing bath. Bedroom 5 is located next door with additional storage space. The corridor leads to three further large double bedrooms and a large family bathroom with both a bath and shower, overlooking the garden. There is also a back staircase leading down into the kitchen. All main reception rooms and bedrooms above face south, offering beautiful countryside views.













Annexe The annexe, located at one side of the house, provides a versatile living space. Currently, it is used for business or extra living accommodation, but it could serve a variety of purposes, including multi generational living. With its own external door and separate staircase, the annexe includes a study and a games room, as well as a bedroom on the mezzanine level, complete with an ensuite

Gardens And Grounds The grounds and gardens extend to 3.66 acres, divided into a garden, orchard, and field. To the west of the property, the garden is beautifully landscaped with a lawn area leading to the orchard, which is home to apple, pear, and cherry trees, as well as various berry bushes. A lovely summer house, sheltered by trees from the house, offers a peaceful retreat.
