Tucked just off Tiverton’s bustling town centre, this remarkable home is a rare fusion of history, character, and modern design. Originally built in 1842 as a blue-collar schoolhouse, later serving as church rooms, and transformed into a stunning private residence in 2003, the property is a masterclass in thoughtful, architect-led conversion. Every corner tells a story, yet the space feels effortlessly contemporary—a place where the past and present coexist beautifully.

Step through the ornate lattice-style double doors, and you’re immediately greeted by a wide, welcoming hallway, where exposed brickwork, curved small-pane windows, and a sweeping stairwell hint at the charm within. Light spills in, bouncing off elegant tiles and warm wood-effect flooring, drawing you toward the heart of the home.

On the ground floor, three bedrooms radiate character and comfort. Two generous doubles and a large single all enjoy charming windows that frame the garden. A further contemporary shower room provides a modern white suite with a large double rainfall shower, vanity unit with storage and stylish finishes, ensuring excellent practicality for family living.

Ascending to the first floor, the home truly comes alive. Here, an extraordinary open-plan living space stretches up into the eaves, where painted beams, ornate mouldings, and lattice windows create drama and light in equal measure. The kitchen is positioned neatly within the space and is fitted with a range of wall and base units topped with granite work surfaces, including a central island with breakfast bar. Integrated appliances including dual ovens, a Belfast sink with Victorian-style mixer tap and ample storage make the kitchen both elegant and functional. The remainder of the space effortlessly accommodates a generous dining area and a luxurious lounge, perfect for unwinding or hosting friends.

A mezzanine level stretches across part of the room, creating a cosy, more intimate living area below while adding architectural drama above. A semi-private nook ideal for a play area, home office, or quiet reading corner, enclosed with glass-panel balustrades, captures natural light and offers roof top views along with overlooking the first-floor living area.

Step outside into the sun-drenched walled garden, a serene courtyard with brick paving and low-maintenance gravel borders, perfect for summer evenings or morning coffee al fresco. Beyond the garden gate, a private parking space adds an extra touch of convenience in this central location.

Living here means embracing Tiverton life: a thriving market town with boutique shops, cafes, recreational facilities, and excellent schools, all complemented by superb connections to Exeter and Taunton via the North Devon Link Road and the M5.

This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. Unique, characterful, and effortlessly stylish, it’s a place where history, light, and modern living come together in perfect harmony.
