High Bolham, Oakford

Hidden in Plain Sight
Located near the beautiful historic parish of Oakford, just north of Tiverton and close to Exmoor National Park, this property offers a peaceful retreat with an abundance of charm.

When I visited High Bolham, I was immediately struck by the beauty of the gardens and paddock. They are truly stunning and have been carefully established by the current owner. To the northeast of the property, the grounds are home to a wide variety of mature plants, trees, and shrubs. Beyond this lies a large paddock area with a stable block, hard standing, and sculpted areas perfect for greenhouses or polytunnels. From the property's snug, there is access to a terraced area, offering side access to the rear of the home. This terrace is ideal for alfresco dining, providing a perfect setting for outdoor meals.

Beyond the formal gardens at the front, there is a gravel parking area, with a gated entrance to the paddock, all enclosed by mature hedging.

The living space within the property exudes both elegance and comfort. The snug, believed to be the old pump room, offers a cozy retreat, while the sitting room features a beautiful open fire. The well-appointed kitchen and dining room are complemented by an inviting log burner, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Additionally, the ground floor includes a well-equipped family bathroom, offering comfort and convenience for all.

The first floor accommodates all three bedrooms. The master bedroom enjoys views across the neighboring fields & newly fitted WC, while two further bedrooms provide ample accommodation for family or guests.

Situated in the peaceful area of Oakford, yet close to the charming town of Tiverton, this remarkable property offers a tranquil lifestyle while maintaining easy access to a variety of amenities. Residents will enjoy the serene surroundings and the vibrant opportunities for walks in Exmoor, just a short drive away.

For those seeking effortless connections, the property is located away from major conurbations, offering a slower pace of life. It's ideally situated for a visit to the local pub and is easily accessible from Exeter and London via Tiverton Parkway Station, offering a swift and direct transportation link. Whether you’re looking for a serene countryside retreat or easy access to vibrant coastal towns and recreational opportunities, this beautiful home in Oakford offers the best of both worlds, making it an exceptional choice for discerning buyers.

Each time I visited, I felt very welcome and comfortable, and I would highly recommend you come and see for yourself if this could be your new home. We look forward to meeting you.
