Description

This impressive farmhouse, steeped in history and dating back to the 1750s, offers a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a substantial property in North Devon. The main residence features five generous bedrooms alongside two adjoining holiday-restricted cottages, making it an ideal choice for families or investors interested in rental income. The charm of the farmhouse is evident through its original features like open fireplaces and beamed ceilings; however, it does require modernisation to unlock its full potential as a family home. The spacious living areas include a sizeable dining room and sitting room, both with inglenook fireplaces, leading into a kitchen that offers ample storage and workspace. The property's layout is functional with multiple access points to the private rear garden, which is a blank canvas awaiting your landscaping ideas. The first floor accommodates five roomy bedrooms, including two with en-suite bathrooms, catering to various accommodation needs. Additionally, the attached cottages provide further versatility; they each feature their own parking and gardens, enhancing their appeal for holiday lets or extended family use. Situated between Barnstaple and Torrington in the scenic North Devon countryside, this property combines rural tranquility with convenience, being just a short drive from local amenities and beautiful coastlines. With parking available for multiple vehicles and significant outdoor space, this property presents excellent renovation potential both inside and out.
