Property description

An impressive and very spacious (4 bedroom, 5 reception room) character home with superb, adaptable accommodation, in a unique rural setting close to the lovely village of Silverton near Exeter.It is believed that the house was originally converted in the early 1980s from a former Victorian threshing barn. The property incorporates a huge amount of interesting character features including many of the substantial natural timbers, in particular the exposed A frame roof trusses in the vaulted day/sitting room. Other examples of beautiful traditional joinery and stone work, such as fireplaces, panelled doors and a lovely herringbone wood block floor all have been retained and combined with a modern specification and a superb layout, which is arranged so as to take full advantage of the property's position and gorgeous country views. As most conversions of its type, although not actually detached, it has been designed in such a way so as to take advantage of the beautiful country views and truly idyllic position (it's worthy of note that all principle rooms enjoy superb, private views and the property has its own private drive and double garage and gated courtyard).The gardens (roughly west facing to catch the afternoon/evening sun), grounds and pony paddock, which in total amount to just about 3.3 acres, augment the house and create a truly fantastic and impressive home, which is extremely spacious, but warm and welcoming too; perfect for those who seek to enjoy seclusion of the countryside but need accessibility.The nearby, much favoured, village of Silverton is only just a mile away; it is an attractive and thriving village with a good range of local shopping facilities including a butchers with adjoining general store/post office, three pubs, village church and primary school. There is a wider range of shopping, recreational and cultural facilities available in the Cathedral City of Exeter.The M5 motorway is also easily accessible at junction 28 Cullompton as is the North Devon link road at Tiverton and the M5 access at Sowton is also only about five miles distant.There are some excellent walks and riding in the immediate vicinity and the National Trust owned Killerton Estate is also extremely close by.
