Description
Character holiday barn conversion with garage and paddock. In all 1.17 acres.
Situation - Nestled in a peaceful rural hamlet between the larger villages of Dunkeswell and Hemyock, this charming barn is set within the stunning Blackdown Hills National Landscape (formerly AONB). Offering tranquility and picturesque surroundings, it provides an ideal countryside retreat.
Description - Originally converted just over 20 years ago, this delightful two-bedroom barn conversion has been used as a holiday let but could also serve as a perfect second home. Built from stone and topped with a corrugated tin roof, the barn features large, timber cladding and double-glazed timber doors and windows that overlook the paddock, flooding the interior with natural light. The characterful space showcases exposed timber beams and wooden flooring, while the kitchen is equipped with an electric oven and hob, along with a freestanding fridge and dishwasher. A ground-floor bathroom adds convenience, and upstairs, alongside the two bedrooms, there is a separate WC.
Outside - Accessed via double timber gates, the property opens to a charming cobbled parking area leading to a spacious paved patio and lawn. A post-and-rail fence borders a small paddock, which includes various fruit trees, a thoughtfully planted garden, and an arboretum area that gently slopes down to a small spring-offering a truly idyllic outdoor setting.
Services - Drainage is into a recently renewed septic tank. Private water supply (well) and mains electric. Electric heating. Broadband up to 5Mbps. Mobile signal outside is likely (Ofcom).
