LOCATION
Stone Farm House enjoys a wonderfully peaceful rural position only 2.5 miles outside the attractive village of Thorverton, surrounded by rolling Mid Devon countryside and a small cluster of long established homes. The setting offers a genuine sense of privacy and tranquillity, with open fields, long distant countryside views and easy access to footpaths and country lanes. Despite its secluded feel, the nearby village of Thorverton is a classic Devon village known for its welcoming community, traditional pub, post office and a primary school.

The location strikes an ideal balance between rural living and convenience. The nearby A396 provides straightforward access to Exeter, Tiverton and the M5, making commuting simple. Exeter offers excellent transport connections, including mainline rail services from Exeter St Davids and Exeter Central to London, Bristol, Birmingham and the wider region. For those who travel further afield, Exeter Airport is also within easy reach, offering a range of domestic and European flights.

Altogether, Stone Farm House offers the charm of countryside living with the practicality of strong transport links and nearby village amenities, making it an appealing choice for those seeking space, calm and accessibility in equal measure.

THE PROPERTY
Stone Farm House is a wonderful, detached home that has been transformed by the current owners into a home of immense style and sophistication. Having recently undergone a comprehensive renovation, Stone Farm House successfully marries character with a crisp, contemporary aesthetic. The finish throughout is exemplary, characterised by a soft tonal palette, high-quality fixtures, and an abundance of natural light.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the magnificent kitchen/dining room. Measuring over 26ft in length, this triple-aspect space features gorgeous cabinetry, a large central island, quartz work surfaces, and a range cooker. A wall of bi-folding doors invites the outside in, framing the extraordinary panoramic views over the Exe Valley and neighbouring countryside. As well as the central island, there is ample space for a dining table – perfect for family life and entertaining.

The living room is beautiful and provides a more formal retreat, centered around a handsome fireplace with a woodburning stove, alongside a deep bay window and a pretty parquet floor. For those working from home, Stone Farm House is uniquely well-served by both an impressive, dedicated study and a secondary office, ensuring ample space for dual professional requirements. Further accommodation on the ground floor includes a very well laid out boot room/utility with bespoke cabinetry and a handmade bench.

On the first floor, the quality continues across four well proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom mirrors the living room’s bay window, offering a sanctuary with elevated views that stretch for miles. The bedrooms all enjoy outstanding views and are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, featuring bespoke tiling and high-end sanitaryware including a free-standing roll top bath.

OUTSIDE
The property is approached via a gated entrance leading to a generous gravelled parking area. The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to capitalize on the home’s elevated position. A substantial sun terrace finished in porcelain tiling wraps around the kitchen/dining room, providing the perfect area for alfresco dining and entertaining while overlooking the rolling hills of the Exe Valley.

The lawn is interspersed with mature trees, including a beautiful weeping willow. The property also benefits from a versatile detached workshop, ideal for hobbies or further storage, and a modern solar PV system on the roof, enhancing the home’s energy efficiency and generating a Feed in Tariff income of £2600 per annum. In total the garden extends to approximately 0.7 acres.
