3 Bedroom Barn Conversion for sale in North Tawton

2 3 2

The Linhay is a semi-detached barn conversion, found in the peaceful Devon village of Bondleigh, located between North Tawton and Winkleigh. Originally converted to a high standard in the late 1980’s, it’s since been further improved in to a comfortable and stylish retreat. There are many beautiful rural walks locally and with Dartmoor just a stone’s throw away, nature is literally on the doorstep. Bondleigh is a lovely place for nature walks, especially the Tarka Trail, dog walking and socialising for those who are interested. There are a number of great cafes and places to eat locally and convenience stores for essentials a short drive away. The local towns of Crediton (30 mins) and Okehampton (15 mins) are within reach and it’s approx. 30 minutes into Exeter via the A30.

The accommodation is presented in excellent order, offering well-proportioned rooms throughout with no small rooms in sight. Day to day, the rear door is used as the main entrance and we love the large conservatory which acts as a flexible space but is ideal for coats and boots when entering the house. This brings you into the heart of the home, a stylish (recently fitted) kitchen with plenty of clever storage ideas and a feature wood-burning stove. There’s solid wood tops and painted floorboards giving a contemporary feel to this light room. The kitchen opens into the dining space at one end with great sociable space for entertaining or family dinners. The living room runs along the front of the property with the official front door to the front garden. There’s another wood-burning stove and given the size of the room, it can be zoned into a cosy living area and a work from home space too. On the first floor, the landing gives access to 3 double bedrooms with the master bedroom having an ensuite shower room. The bathroom, which has been recently updated, provides a luxury escape with its roll top bath and calming décor. The property benefits from double glazing and oil-fired central heating, via the outside Worcester boiler.

Immediately to the front of the property, a pathway leads through an attractive timber arch giving access to the front door. To each side of the path there are areas of garden with shrubs including lilac and climbing rose. Immediately to the rear of the property is a lawned garden with mature flower beds and shrub borders. The gardens themselves are private, bordered by hedges and fencing. A gravelled pathway leads through the garden, extending to a further gravelled area housing an insulated home office (with a low level WC, hand basin and storage cupboard). This is ideal for those wishing to work from home or simply to escape into the garden for hobbies. At the top of the garden are two timber outbuildings, a workshop with power, shed and an aluminium framed greenhouse. From the garden there is access to an off-road parking area for two vehicles with lane access from the road, there is scope to create more parking from the adjoining garden if desired.

Agents’ note: The current owners have Starlink (satellite broadband which can give over 100 Mbps speed) – for those who rely on a fast connection at home.
