Character 3 bed barn conversion with 2 bed annexe & glorious countryside views. Large parking area. Useful timber workshop and storage. 1/4 acre grounds.
SITUATION
This property is one of a select few barn conversions crafted from the original farm buildings at Blamphayne Farm, set in the idyllic rural surroundings of Northleigh parish. Nestled between the vibrant market towns of Honiton and Axminster, and the picturesque coastal resort of Sidmouth, Northleigh is situated in a sheltered valley within a designated National Landscape (formerly known as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty).
The property is accessed via a private driveway shared with neighbouring homes and enjoys stunning views over open farmland at the rear.
Honiton, located just 15 minutes to the northwest, is home to a variety of independent shops, including a renowned collection of antique stores, as well as a mainline railway station offering direct services to London Waterloo. To the south lies the World Heritage-listed Jurassic Coast at Lyme Bay. The property is also located just 4.6 miles from the prestigious Colyton Grammar School, one of England s top secondary schools.
DESCRIPTION
Significantly enhanced and extended by the current owners, this property offers a flexible layout suited to a variety of family needs, featuring two charming stone buildings beneath a slate roof. As is typical with barn conversions, the property benefits from mutually agreed covenants to preserve the character and community of the area.
The main house is attached to a neighbouring property at the lower end. Inside, the accommodation exudes a light and airy feel, with a semi-open-plan design that incorporates split-level living. At the upper end, the farmhouse-style kitchen features a range-style cooker, shaker-style cabinets and timber doors that open to a stunning deck perfect for outdoor entertaining.
At the opposite end of the house is the spacious 28-foot sitting room, which is centred around a cozy fireplace with a large wood burner. This double-aspect room provides wonderful views over the rear of the property. Additionally, there is a utility room and a conveniently located WC.
The first floor features three generously sized bedrooms. The main bedroom includes an en-suite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe, while another bedroom offers plenty of built-in storage with fitted cupboards, making it ideal for families or those who need extra space.
THE CIDER PRESS
Known as The Cider Press, this charming annexe has been thoughtfully extended to offer two bedrooms, a spacious kitchen/dining room, and a separate sitting room. It also features a convenient downstairs WC and a family bathroom on the first floor. Each of the main rooms enjoys beautiful views overlooking the gardens and the open farmland beyond, creating a serene and picturesque living environment.
GARDEN
The gently rolling garden, primarily laid to lawn, extends to the rear and backs onto open fields, offering a peaceful rural setting. Adjacent to both the main house and the annexe are private decking and gravel areas, perfect for enjoying the best of the views. These spaces are sheltered by mature plants and shrubs, providing privacy and tranquillity, with the soothing sound of a nearby spring-fed stream. A covered area between the main barn and the annexe serves as an ideal spot to sit and relax, even when the weather takes a turn.
PARKING
Enclosed by tall hedging and the outbuildings is a large near level gravel area providing lots of space for parking.
WORKSHOP/OFFICE & OUTBUILDINGS
Next to the parking area is a versatile workshop/office building that overlooks the gardens, along with another room featuring French doors at the front. These enclosed spaces are fully equipped with both light and power, offering a range of potential uses.
Attached to the building are two open-fronted storage areas, as well as a series of excellent log stores, providing ample space for firewood and other storage needs.
SERVICES
Mains electric. Private water supply via a spring, with filtration system. Private drainage via a shared septic tank in neighbouring lower field. Oil-fired underfloor heating for the Cider Barn and LPG central heating for The Cider Press. Ultrafast broadband (up to 1,000 Mpbs download) Mobile coverage available outside with O2, Three and Vodafone, limited with EE (Ofcom). EPC D
