Description A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully converted one bedroom detached bungalow, originally the village smithy, believed to date back to the 16th century. The Smithy was historically part of the inn next door, now closed, and was thoughtfully converted in 2019 to create a unique and characterful home that blends rustic charm with modern comforts.
Nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Pennymoor, just 6.5 miles from Tiverton, this delightful home boasts a south facing frontage, allowing natural light to flood through its well insulated interior. The property benefits from level access, making it particularly suitable for those with mobility needs.
Upon entering, a bright and airy hallway welcomes you into the home, with wood effect flooring and doors leading to the lounge diner and kitchen.
The modern and well appointed kitchen features a range of wall and base units with wooden effect roll edge worktops. An integrated double oven with Zanussi induction hob, extractor fan, and space for a fridge freezer, washing machine, dishwasher, and tumble dryer make this a highly practical space. A large window to the front elevation offers a lovely outlook down the lane.
The spacious lounge diner is a stunning central hub of the home, benefiting from a large south facing picture window with far reaching countryside views towards Dartmoor. The high ceilings enhance the sense of space, while a storage cupboard, airing cupboard, and loft access add to the practicality of the room.
The generously sized bedroom is a peaceful retreat, featuring a built in wardrobe and a south facing window that fills the space with natural light.
The stylish bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite, including a panelled bath with mixer tap and shower attachment over, a pedestal wash basin, and a low level WC. Tiled splashbacks, a heated towel rail, and an extractor fan complete the space.
Outside, the property is easy to maintain, both inside and out. A designated parking space for one vehicle is located at the front, alongside a raised flower bed adding a touch of greenery. A small seating area provides a perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening sunset.
The Smithy benefits from a new roof installed during its conversion in 2019, along with well insulated interior walls and floors. With level access, it would suit a retired couple or a person with mobility issues. Mains water and drainage services are connected, ensuring ease of maintenance.
Centrally located for easy access to Dartmoor, Exmoor, and both North and South Devon coastlines, this property is perfect for those who enjoy exploring the great outdoors. Excellent country walks are right on the doorstep, and essential amenities, including a post office, shop, doctor s surgery, and pharmacy, are just three miles away.
This charming, low maintenance home would appeal to a working or retired couple, those seeking a peaceful countryside retreat, or even as a holiday rental given its prime location for exploring Devon s natural beauty.
