Ashmill, Ashwater, Beaworthy, Devon, EX21

Situated close to the rural West Devon village of Ashwater this unique four bedroom house comes to the market and marks the end of a major renovation project for our vendors. After purchasing the former industrial building back in 2018 they have worked tirelessly with their builder to create two attached dwellings on the site. Bridge house is the second and last part of the project and is now ready for occupation. We are grateful to have been given the opportunity to market this extremely unique three storey substantial home that benefits from its very own stone bridge and detached cabin, ideal for buyers needing to work from home or requiring a substantial family home or couples wanting space for guests or hobbies.

Over the last few years, Bridge House has been sympathetically, converted from a former historic Mill and warehouse building situated in what was once a busy rural Devon village, into a substantial, stunning three storey home. The inside is light and airy throughout with a mixture of white painted walls and some feature exposed stone. All of the windows and door openings are installed with UPVC double glazing. The window sills are constructed with polished natural Beech. The central heating and hot water are run from the oil fired central heating boiler situated within the separate utility room, along with the cloakroom/WC. The floor in the open plan living room is polished timber, the high ceiling enjoys exposed timber beams. The kitchen area is fitted with an array of coloured shaker style units with solid wood worktops. The brand new, integrally installed Bosch electric oven, extractor fan and dishwasher are all included within the sale.

The top floor, bedroom suite, is situated within the roof space so there is some restricted head space but plenty of useful eve storage available. There is room between the tresses for a double bed and great views available through the roof windows. Enjoying exclusive use of the en-suite bathroom that consists of a statement, white, freestanding bath, WC and wash basin with vanity cupboard below.

The ground floor hosts three double bedrooms all laid with matching grey carpet and enjoying built in wardrobes and the use of a family shower room that benefits from porcelain, wood look floor tiles, a glass and tiled double shower unit and wash basin. There is plenty of space for a home office, where the owners have, sympathetically preserved the original mill stone within glass under the floor.

Outside, the garden is landscaped at various levels using local found stone with the central feature being a restored full size, stone railway bridge which also provides off road parking for numerous vehicles. A useful insulated cabin is located at the end of the bridge, having an electric supply means this could be simply a quiet vantage point for overlooking the garden or a workshop/office. There is also an EV charging point installed.
