In addition to the house there is a detached two storey barn, ideal for storage and hobbies alike. Only a short walk up the lane is a separate good sized detached garden. This area has been very productive for the owners having planted seven fruit trees as well as creating several vegetable beds, they have really enjoyed growing their own fruit and vegetables over the years. This inviting property is ideal for those seeking a comfortable and convenient home in a desirable location. Don't miss the opportunity to make this peaceful and stylish house your own.

Wembworthy is a peaceful, pretty and traditional Devon village far enough from anywhere to appreciate the slow pace of life whilst being within a short journey by car to the wider world. The closest pub is right here and we are told serves very good food. The shops and post office as well as various other amenities including a doctor’s surgery, primary school and two public houses can be found in the nearby village of Winkleigh only 2.9 miles away. Those looking for rail links to further afield can find the nearest station in Eggesford some 2.7 miles from your door step. The line goes North to Barnstaple or South to Exeter providing links beyond. Amenities in the village are a little sparse but it still provides a children’s play park, village hall with regular events at least twice monthly and two churches that both hold services frequently, it's the perfect environment to raise your children. Just a short drive away is Chulmleigh which offers a range of shops, restaurants and multiple sports facilities.
