Winkleigh, with its pubs, shops, post office, cidery, doctors’ surgery, cafes and an Ofsted-rated “Good” primary school is only 5 miles away, while the small town of Chulmleigh is only 5.5 miles away.

Accommodation - Cottage
This unlisted cottage is believed to be about 200 years old, and has been extended over the years to create a spacious home. The cottage retains many character features, including exposed beams and an original inglenook, while also having all of the modern conveniences to make life comfortable, including oil-fired central heating.
The ground floor includes a spacious porch leading to 3 separate dual aspect reception rooms flooded with natural light, with the living room enjoying an attractive and efficient wood burner, which is a central feature. Also on the ground floor is a modern fitted kitchen that blends old world charm with clean, sleek lines, plus a laundry / boot room with a stable door to the exterior.
Upstairs are 3 light and bright double bedrooms, 2 of which have en-suite shower rooms, while the 3rd has an en-suite cloakroom.
Accommodation - Annexe
The detached barn conversion provides ancillary accommodation to the cottage. It is believed to be over 250 years old and retains many original features. It is a spectacular space that was converted by the current owners just a few years ago.
On the ground floor are a fully-fitted kitchen, snug with inglenook and wood burner, shower room and library with a double height green oak window. On the mezzanine is a double bedroom with fitted cupboards and splendid views from the oak window.
The annexe would be ideal for a variety of uses including as a separate space for teenagers, elderly relatives, guests, home office and more.
Outside
The property is situated at the end of a private country track. The cottage and barn annexe have a gated entry off this, which leads to a courtyard with parking for 2-3 cars.
The cottage enjoys south-facing wraparound gardens to two sides, which are partially laid to lawn and also contain extensive shrub and flower beds, along with a wide variety of native trees. There are serene seating areas that allow one to soak up all that nature has to offer.
Wildlife visitors are a particular feature of this property - the current owners have observed roe deer, foxes, badgers, sparrowhawks, swallows and swifts with their impressive aerobatic displays, song birds, rabbits, hares and more. There is also a potting shed (12’0” x 10’0”) with plenty of space for tools, potting and storage. In addition there is a large woodshed (13’4” x 8’5”) attached to the annexe, providing further storage for logs and tools.
