Brendon, Lynton

Gardens & Grounds

The gardens and grounds (around ¾-acre), which are a particular feature of the property, border a tranquil stretch of the East Lyn river and must be seen to be fully appreciated. There are several patios and lawns, a vegetable garden, plenty of parking, two outbuildings and a greenhouse.

Outbuildings

Stone Barn

A good-sized stone barn, a few metres from the house, providing a single garage, two stables and two storage rooms, with a former hay loft above. Could provide further accommodation as an annex for staff, teenagers, hobbies, crafts etc (STPP).
There is a tarmac car parking area outside the barn, with space for several vehicles and the oil storage tank, accessed from the lane outside via a pair of wrought-iron gates.

Greenhouse

A good-sized greenhouse between the river-side patio area and the vegetable garden and just a few metres from the rear porch and kitchen.

Stables & Car Port

At the far end of the property, accessed from the lane outside by a pair of wooden five-bar gates, is a second outbuilding. The building consists of two concrete-block stables a large garage and car port of timber frame with corrugated iron panels. The timber-framed portion of this building is in need of repair and/or rebuilding (STPP).
