Carpenters Barn offers the perfect opportunity for a wonderful countryside retreat, a place to retire to and would be easily used as a ‘lockup & leave’ if needed. It is a lovely mix of new and old, having been converted in 2010 to a fantastic standard throughout.

The accommodation offers great flexibility, it is currently used as three double bedrooms with the master enjoying an en-suite, masses of wardrobe and cupboard storage space and fantastic views from your bed through the double doors with Juliet balcony. The en-suite and family bathroom both have underfloor heating beneath the tiles and heated towel rails. Downstairs we have a naturally light and large open-plan living, dining kitchen (integrated twin oven, electric hob & hood) again with double doors to the garden, with an adjoining utility behind which has rear access, a Worcester gas boiler and further sink, plus a ground floor shower room with WC and sink. The whole property is double glazed and has gas central heating.

Outside: The self-contained south-facing plot is a lovely suntrap with formal gardens immediately outside the double doors, with decked and stone chipped area, a fish pond and raised flower beds. Beyond is a large gated parking area, suitable for 8 cars and/or a motorhome etc, with a 22m x 4.3m area of lawn with fields and the magnificent views beyond.

Please see the floorplan for room sizes.

There are many good restaurants and inns in the area and there is a 9-hole golf course only about one mile away. The village is situated 5 miles west of Crediton and 13 miles from Exeter.
