residences occupying a delightful elevated position with
lovely walled gardens providing a high degree of privacy, all
within easy reach of the town centre.
In our opinion the property could suit a purchaser looking
to have a simply stunning main residence with a separate
cottage in the grounds or as business venture either as a
B&B or high end holiday investment.
Accommodation
The property was subject to a complete restoration
circa 2013/14 which was sympathetically
undertaken by the previous owners to create this
highly efficient period property with under floor
heating, double glazing, beautiful kitchen, and
luxurious bathroom and en-suite facilities.
The main front door opens into the entrance hall
which gives you access to the main Drawing Room,
Dining Room, Kitchen, Sitting room with the oak
staircase at the end.
The impressive drawing room is dual aspect and has
a feature living flame fireplace set in a marble
surround. There are two sets of double doors that
lead onto the south facing Loggia with panoramic
views over the Torridge valley to open countryside.
The spacious formal dining room is to the rear of
the property and has Cherrywood flooring and a gas
log effect stove set into the chimney breast. Off the
dining room is a useful studio being triple aspect,
this is an ideal space for an artist, or to be used as a
home office.
The kitchen / breakfast room is a lovely dual aspect
room with French doors onto the Loggia with
shutters. The bespoke hand painted kitchen also
features polished granite work surfaces with space
for American style fridge/ freezer (available by
separate negotiation if required), Rangemaster cooker incorporating electric ovens and gas hob,
integrated dishwasher and semi-circular larder
cupboards.
Across the hall from the kitchen is the sitting room
that has a marble fireplace with fitted coal effect gas
fire and Cherrywood flooring.
To the rear of the sitting room is the laundry room
with polished granite work surfaces and space for a
washing machine and tumble drier. To the side of
this room is a useful Cloakroom W.C. with a
pedestal wash basin, tiled walls and floor. Leading
through from the laundry room is the boiler room,
with the Worcester fired gas boiler for the central
heating and domestic hot water, polished granite
work surfaces with cupboards beneath, hot water
cylinders and UV filter for the separate well water
supply.
The oak staircase leads up from the entrance hall to
the first floor landing that gives access to the four
main bedrooms and the family bathroom. To the
side of the staircase is a large window which
provides an abundance of natural light. There are
four well-proportioned double bedrooms with the
majority enjoying lovely countryside views.
Bedrooms one and two both have tasteful white en-
suite facilities and bedroom 2 also has additional
dressing room. Both bedrooms three and four have
en-suite cloakrooms toilets and basins.
The luxurious family bathroom is also on this floor
and has a centralised free standing cast iron bath
with oak trim, stylish shower cubicle, WC, pedestal
wash basin, fitted cupboards to one wall and a
heated towel rail. Also in the bathroom is a fitted
sauna.
The property is approached through double
electrically operated gates with portcullis style
wrought iron detail above, with a side pedestrian
gate. The entrance gates are set in an ornate
castellated stone wall. A block paved driveway then
leads on past the main house to the separate
Cottage and Garage, and there is ample parking and
turning space. To the side of the drive there is a
raised lawn, interspersed with mature trees
including a fine oak, two fig trees and a variety of
shrubs. Towards the top of the garden is a
Greenhouse and at a lower level a further, well established border with a well and canopy. To the
front of the main house is a level area of lawn and
the Loggia with lovely southerly views. There is also
a oak believed to be 600 years old with preservation
order. To the left hand side of the property is a
most attractive walled side garden, mainly laid to
lawn with ornamental pond, site for hot tub, terrace
and BBQ area and raised beds for a kitchen garden.
Location
Great Torrington is a small but welcoming market town
set in the rolling countryside of North Devon. The
town is set in a prominent position over-looking the
Torridge valley. Surrounded on three sides by common
land gifted to the town in the 12th Century, there are
20 miles of public footpaths that can be enjoyed.
The bustling town centre offers a wide range of day-to-
day shops, building society, a library, a Pannier Market
and the renowned Plough Arts Centre which offers
entertainment to suit all ages and tastes. There is
schooling for all ages up to 16 and a variety of sports
facilities.
The larger towns of Bideford and Barnstaple are 7 and
13 miles away and provide more extensive retail
facilities and leisure opportunities. The city of Exeter is
around an hour’s drive away and benefits from having
mainline rail links, a large shopping centre, the
Cathedral and university and an international airport.
