Description

"

The small Mid Devon village of Colebrooke sits atop a hill with some stunning far reaching views over the rolling countryside. These views are in abundance, particularly from the gardens and first floor of this large, detached barn conversion in an enviable private, village edge position. The village has a thriving community and along with the nearby villages of Coleford with its pub and Penstone, there are events and the opportunity to meet new friends on a regular basis. The town of Crediton is about 5 miles away and through the lanes, you can join the A30 at Cheriton Bishop for access to Exeter Okehampton. It s a quiet, traditional area, somewhat unspoilt without being off the beaten track.

This stunning brick built barn is being offered to the market for the first time in over 25 years. It s been a wonderful family home and with the space on offer inside and out, it s a perfect setting for village life. The barn is on mains electric, water and drainage and then air source heat pumps provide central heating along with a woodburner for those chillier winter nights. The property has been well maintained and being brick under a slate roof, ongoing maintenance is somewhat reduced without the need for regular painting! There s double glazing and insulation as one would expect.

Upon entry, you re greeted with the one off staircase, a real feature of the house with plenty of light and this gives a hint that this place is a little different. The hub of the home is the large kitchen dining family room. It s large, sociable and some may go as far to say, excellent for entertaining. With the space and the wood burner, along with doors opening out onto the terrace, it s got plenty of flexibility. There s a separate cosy living room which is up a couple of steps, again making it just that little bit special. Also on the ground floor is a utility room, WC and a study. Outside, within the front courtyard is a useful hobby room which would suit a range of uses.

The grand staircase gives access to the first floor with the four double bedrooms. The master bedroom has a large ensuite and a walk in wardrobe and makes it a wonderful retreat from the rest of the house. The further three bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.

Not to take anything away from the house, but the gardens will be the main attraction for some. Entering your own land via a sweeping driveway, it s sure to put a smile on your face every time! The driveway provides ample parking overall but leads to the integral double garage in the rear courtyard. This is ideal for keeping the cars out of the way and secure. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn with natural hedging and some fencing, a variety of trees and shrubs add some character. There s plenty of storage workspace with an additional detached timber garage workshop and more parking for trailers motorhomes etc. As well as the main gardens are the front courtyard, a very private space with a gate to the village too and this provides excellent space for alfresco dining when the weather allows.

It s a super property in beautiful gardens and to get the size both inside and out, in a village setting doesn t come along too often!
