Fine and Country are delighted to present a rare opportunity to acquire this exceptional double-fronted Edwardian Residence, ideally located with convenient access to Exmoor National Park, the stunning North Devon coastline, and Barnstaple, the regional centre. This residence offers a spacious, versatile layout with plenty of character and breath-taking views across the surrounding countryside.

The property features 4 generously sized reception rooms, a study, a master suite, and four additional bedrooms, providing ample space for family living. With minimal alterations, it could also suit dual-family occupancy should one require. Retaining many original features, such as high ceilings and large windows, the home is filled with natural light and charm.

Adding to the appeal is a detached two-bedroom annexe in an attractive and contemporary 'Art Deco' style. This annexe enjoys beautiful countryside views and its own private garden area, open plan living and modern bathroom. It offers excellent potential for generating an additional income whilst also being ideal for a dependant relative.

Additional outbuildings include a detached triple garage providing ample storage, and a large barn which currently provides excellent storage but also has planning permission to convert into a three-bedroom home, adding even more potential for someone looking to capitalise on this opportunity.
