The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
Occupying a superb position within easy reach of Great Torrington's wide range of shops, cafés and everyday amenities, Peel House enjoys a unique setting alongside St Michael & All Angels Church. A pathway through the churchyard provides a charming approach to the property, while the town square and nearby bus routes are both just moments away.
A picturesque, cobbled path leads to the welcoming entrance porch, which opens into a central hallway providing access to the principal ground floor accommodation.
The spacious living room is bright and inviting, benefiting from dual-aspect windows that allow natural light to flood the room. A feature multi-fuel stove creates a cosy focal point, making it an ideal space to relax.
Double doors open into the well-appointed kitchen/dining room, where the current owners have sympathetically updated the space while retaining the property's character. Fitted with a range of base units, an inset ceramic butler sink, plumbing and space for appliances, and a range-style cooker, the room also features an attractive fireplace. With ample room for dining, it's perfectly suited to both everyday family life and entertaining guests.
To the rear of the property, a useful lobby provides access to the enclosed courtyard and separate utility room, which offers plumbing for a washing machine.
Upstairs, the landing leads to three generously proportioned double bedrooms and a modern shower room. Each bedroom enjoys excellent natural light, with two of the rooms overlooking the neighbouring church and churchyard.
Formerly the town's police station, Peel House is a home rich in history and period charm. Thoughtfully modernised over the years, it now combines its character features with the convenience of gas central heating and mains water, electricity and drainage, offering comfortable modern living in a truly distinctive property.
