Description
Three double bedroom barn conversion offering beautiful countryside views over rural East Devon, with triple garaging and established gardens. No onward chain.
The Property - This individual barn conversion was believed to have been converted some thirty years ago with the original structure extended to offer a well proportioned spacious property. The attractive stone facade only enhances this charming property which offers the perfect blend of modern living with outstanding views over neighbouring farmland. The Soap House is offered to the market with the benefit of no onward chain with viewings considered essential to appreciate the size and position of the accommodation on offer.

The picturesque village of Dalwood has a well-regarded public house, The Tuckers Arms, community village shop, hall and church, and Burrow Farm Gardens are nearby. The village has an excellent community with various events taking place throughout the year.
