East Street, Devon, EX21 5NL

This gorgeous period home is believed to date to Georgian times and is as relevant over 200 years later as it was then!  A private drive with a small cottage garden to the side leads to the front door, which opens to an entrance hall.  To the right is a large dual aspect living room with inglenook fireplace, woodburner and access to the rear garden.  On the opposite side of the hallway is the dual aspect dining room, with plenty of room for entertaining and dinners with the family.  To the rear is the modern fitted kitchen with range cooker, oak worktops and custom built central island.  The entrance hall provides access to the stairs, and on the first floor is the primary double bedroom which has an en suite shower room and plenty of storage via a substantial and full height cupboard/wardrobe as well as a second single built-in wardrobe. Three additional bedrooms and the family bathroom complete the first floor.  A large boarded loft space is accessed via a pull-down ladder which provides plenty of additional storage.  The property is presented immaculately and clearly has been a treasured home for our clients.

To the front is an attractive pebble driveway, which can accommodate 2 cars, and a small walled cottage garden with ornamental plantings.  To the rear is an enclosed garden with patio area, attractive flowers and shrubs and a small greenhouse.  There is also a spacious workshop/store with plenty of space to undertake wood working projects or other hobbies which has a useful mezzanine storage area (of limited height) spanning the whole workshop area.  This building also houses a gardener's WC.

Sheepwash is a vibrant and charming rural ‘Devon Crossroads’ village between Hatherleigh (5 miles) and Holsworthy (11 miles), which have variety of shops and amenities (including Waitrose in Holsworthy). The village’s pretty square is just a short stroll from the property and is home to chocolate box thatched cottages and the renowned ‘Half Moon Inn’ pub with integrated village shop, one of the few remaining fishing inns in Devon. Primary schools are located in the adjacent villages of Highampton and Black Torrington, where there is also a doctors surgery, and Shebbear College, a respected independent boarding school, is a short drive away. Bude with its sandy beaches and the open country of Dartmoor can be reached in as little as 25-30 minutes, as can access to the A30 dual carriageway (leading to the M5).
