This immaculate loft conversion, situated 5.5 miles from the market town of Barnstaple, offers a dog-loving couple a quirky bolthole deep in the North Devon countryside. Set in a location perfect for trips to the coast by day and stargazing at night, the secluded property offers imaginatively arranged open-plan living areas, access to a plant room and outdoor seating.
So much in and around this gorgeous property catches the eye, from the sloping ceilings and the inviting soft furnishings upstairs to the scenic tranquillity of the surrounding area. Enter via the small kitchen then take the stairs to the first floor leading into the bright and airy lounge/diner. This welcoming space is a place to eat, relax and forget about the world, and is bookended by a contemporary shower room at one end and a king-size bedroom with a large feature window at the other. The secluded seating outside is ideal for alfresco brunches, evening BBQs on warmer days and snuggling under a blanket with a bottle of fizz as the stars begin to light up the night sky. A plant room, ideal for storing muddy boots and coats after long walks, is situated nearby.
Scenic walks into Swimbridge (1 mile), the home of the clergymen who bred the first Jack Russell terrier, and Landkey (3 miles), are a great way to soak up the area, while the stunning landscapes of Exmoor National Park are within 11 miles. The shores at Saunton, Instow, Westward Ho! and Croyde (all within 16 miles) each offer a different coastal experience, while Barnstaple (5.5 miles) and South Molton (7.5 miles) are home to bustling pannier markets.
