The property is full of charm, showcasing exposed wooden beams, deep-set windows and impressive fireplaces throughout. The main sitting room centres around a striking inglenook fireplace with exposed stone surround, while a second reception room, also with a character fireplace, provides flexible additional living space.
The open-plan kitchen and dining room forms the heart of the home, fitted with wooden worktops, a ceramic sink, built-in pantries and tiled flooring, and anchored by a traditional Rayburn. This bright and sociable space enjoys pleasant outlooks and connects to a generous utility room and a downstairs bathroom.
Upstairs are four bedrooms, three doubles and one single, all continuing the home’s characterful feel, alongside a well-appointed family bathroom with corner bath and rainfall shower. The property has been enhanced with UPVC double glazing, while retaining its original Georgian features.
Outside, Deanvale enjoys south-facing gardens and grounds extending to approximately 1.18 acres, offering privacy, space and a wonderful connection to the surrounding countryside.
A range of outbuildings provide excellent versatility, including two former stables now used for storage, along with additional useful buildings. The vendors have also converted an existing building into a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, ideal for extended family, guests or potential income, subject to any necessary consents. There is ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
Set in the sought-after coastal village of Combe Martin, the property offers an enviable lifestyle close to the sea, countryside walks and the South West Coast Path, while remaining within easy reach of local amenities and the larger centres of Ilfracombe and Barnstaple.
Deanvale presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and beautifully characterful home with land and annexe accommodation in one of North Devon’s most desirable coastal settings.
