Talaton, EX5 2RU
Guide price £985,000 Freehold
(Sold Subject To Contract)
Description
A substantial barn conversion with lovely light and airy, characterful accommodation providing an extremely comfortable home with large gardens and grounds with stabling and paddock set in glorious East Devon Countryside.
This wonderful home is in an idyllic setting whilst local and major amenities are easily accessible. Talaton has a strong community with a village hall, community-run shop, Church and a good pub. Ottery St Mary is only a few miles away and Talaton stands within The King's School catchment area. The local primary school at Feniton also has a strong reputation and for those wishing to commute, the nearby A30 provides swift access to Exeter and the M5 or Cullompton. Honiton is about 5 miles away and the coast at Sidmouth is within a short driving distance. For the equestrian enthusiast, Bicton Arena is 12 miles away, which holds international, British and Pony Club Championships with local facilities at Hitts Barton, New Hall and Venn Ottery.
The property itself enjoys deceptively spacious and well-presented accommodation with a versatile and thoughtful layout with exposed beams and fireplaces. The rustic features are complimented by quality fixtures and fittings with oak doors. The large family home briefly comprises; spacious reception hall with a cloakroom W.C leading to a fully furnished office, perfect for those working from home. A utility/laundry room provides storage and appliance space and the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room is most definitely the heart of the home, with plenty of room for family and friends to cook, dine and socialise together. The kitchen area is beautifully appointed with a comprehensive range of traditional timber cupboards and drawers at both base and eye level whilst incorporating modern appliances, complimented by attractive granite worktops. The Aga is another traditional feature, along with the central island which provides plenty of room for food preparation pleasing any keen cook, with space for informal dining. This capacious room measures approximately 29 feet long, so ample room for a large family dining table and chairs along with a lounge area. A feature arched door leads to the sitting room with a wonderful vaulted ceiling providing a lovely light and airy feel with a feature fireplace and inset woodburning stove creating a cosy atmosphere on a winters evening. The dual aspect lounge with oak flooring and a second fireplace with large opening leads to the snug or music room and the ground-floor double bedroom benefits from a modern white suite and a door to the rear courtyard garden.
The feeling of space and character continues throughout the first floor with a lovely long landing with immense character, four good-sized bedrooms, two bathrooms and two shower rooms that are all well-appointed. The master suite is another impressive room being particularly spacious benefitting from a dressing room and luxury ensuite facility with both bath and separate shower cubicle.
The gardens and grounds will please many, with formal areas for the keen gardeners and plenty of sunshine for the sun worshippers. The garage/workshop will accommodate those who enjoy crafts and machinery and the stables with a paddock for equestrian fanatics. The large driveway provides off-road parking for several vehicles including room for boats, caravans etc. and access to the garage/workshop with light and power. The principal garden to the front of the home enjoys a southerly aspect, taking full advantage of the sun throughout the day. The large expanse of lawn allows room for children to run and play whilst the large patio creates a lovely area for family and friends to enjoy outdoor dining / entertaining in the summer months. The rear courtyard is predominantly gravelled for ease of maintenance with raised beds bursting with a variety of specimen plants and shrubs producing a range of colours. The stables and paddock are also in good condition and would lend itself to be an income stream if not required for personal use. There is also potential to provide additional accommodation or holiday let, subject to the necessary planning permissions/consents.
The total plot extends to approximately 1.5 acres and must be viewed to fully appreciate all on offer.
