Detached house for sale in Lydford, Okehampton EX20

No onward chain. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a striking and beautifully presented, detached residence in Lydford. The property sits within substantial grounds with a number of outbuildings and stables. These formerly had planning permission to be converted into holiday accommodation which could be an option for the next owner (subject to the necessary consents) to generate additional accommodation and income.

The property is within a short distance of open moorland, great for those who love walking in the fresh air, or if utilising the stables and out riding. The gardens are level and laid to lawn with an abundance of mature shrubs and plants providing a wealth of colour. The original part of the property is believed to have been constructed in the 1600's, whilst during the 1700's the property was extended to its current guise. The current vendors rent the property out for short term holidays throughout the year with great success.

The property boasts an impressive hallway, a downstairs study/bedroom, a spacious shower room with WC, a welcoming living room with a window overlooking the garden and a fireplace with a wood burning stove. There is also a generous reception room with an impressive inglenook fireplace and a spacious dining room. The kitchen has a modern feel to it with polished granite worktops, plenty of storage space with an island and an Aga.
There are five double bedrooms, all of which provide their own character, they are all comfortable rooms with two of them boasting en-suite shower rooms. The family bathroom has a 'p-Shaped' bath with shower over, WC & basin.
