A substantial five/six bedroom period property set on a 0.70 acre plot in a private and tranquil rural setting on the outskirts of Northlew, nestled within mature gardens and beautiful surrounding countryside and woodland. The property offers generous and versatile accommodation and boasts an abundance of period and character features, and there is excellent opportunity for refurbishment and development with the property in need of extensive renovation. The current owner has already begun the renovation process with some improvements to include the installation of solar panels, insulation and electric heating.

Internally the property comprises a welcoming entrance hall with stairs to the first floor landing, three spacious reception rooms each with feature exposed stone fireplaces, a well-appointed kitchen, a laundry room providing ample storage and appliance space, five/six bedrooms to the first floor all of which can space double sized beds and two with fitted wardrobes, a bathroom suite and an additional modern shower room suite.

The plot spans 0.70 acres providing endless potential for extension, landscaping and conversion, boasting extensive mature gardens enclosed with established shrubs and trees, ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles to the large front gated driveway, outbuildings with conversion potential (subject to any relevant planning permissions), a feature pond with a stone boundary and lovely views of the surrounding unspoilt countryside.

The property is located just 0.7 miles from the picturesque village of Northlew set at the foothills of the stunning Devonshire countryside and which is home to a traditional village square, a friendly Inn and a primary school, as well as regular bus services to Bideford market town which offers a more comprehensive range of amenities and facilities. There is also easy access to the likes of Holsworthy, Hatherleigh and Okehampton, the latter of which has access onto the A30 dual carriageway providing a link to the city of Exeter.
