Property description

This substantial barn conversion was originally intended to be two properties and still retains separate facilities making it ideal for dual living or perhaps larger families. Situated in a quiet rural location nestled within its own large gardens at the lower end of a small hamlet of other detached properties the house enjoys a peaceful and idyllic outlook over countryside.

Location
The property is in the heart of 'War Horse' country. just on the outskirts of Iddesleigh, which includes the well known and popular Duke of York pub and 3 miles from the market town of Hatherleigh, in the heart of the peaceful, unspoiled, rolling countryside of mid Devon, within the River Okement Valley, which joins the River Torridge nearby. There are many opportunities locally for walking, riding and fishing, and Hatherleigh possesses a full selection of local amenities including primary school, livestock market, auction rooms, shops and pubs. Further to the south is Okehampton where there is secondary schooling and a Waitrose store. There are private schools in the area at Shebbear, West Buckland, Tavistock, Tiverton and Exeter.

Directions
From Okehampton take the A386 north from the centre of the town and proceed for about 1.5 miles where you reach a T-junction at which you turn right. After about 5.5 miles you will come to a roundabout, turn right signposted town centre. Turn right at school signposted Week and Monkokehampton. Drive for 1.3 miles and then turn left (signposted Week and Iddesleigh). Drive for 1.5 miles and turn left signposted Bridgetown.
