6 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Crediton

4 6 2

A substantial rural house in beautiful location with fantastic six bedroom accommodation and wonderful gardens & grounds extending to around 2.4 acres in total.

Southmoor House is a most substantial Georgian country house situated within a lovely rural yet accessible location. The accommodation is bright and well proportioned with the first floor accessed by two separate stairwells. There are numerous features very typical of a property from that era.

From the elegant hall there are three sizeable reception rooms, two with fireplaces, together with a well appointed farmhouse kitchen.

There are 5 bedrooms to the first floor (1 en-suite), a shower and a family bathroom. In addition there is a very impressive dining room with exposed ceiling beams. There is also a bedroom to the ground floor with an en-suite.

Many rooms have high and classic Georgian windows which in turn provide lovely views over the gardens, grounds and neighbouring countryside.

Southmoor House makes for a wonderful family home and is excellent for those with an interest in keeping animals.

There is a level lawn and gravel turn circle to the front of the house which in turn provides ample parking and leads to the adjoining garage.

There are further lawns behind the property including flower beds, soft fruits, vegetable path and a small orchard.

Immediately adjoining the gardens separated by a post and rail fence, a gateway leads directly onto the paddock of approximately 2.4 acres. The outbuilding within the garden provides ample storage as well as 2 enclosed stables.

Please see the floor plan for room sizes.

DIRECTIONS  : From Crediton head along the A377 to Copplestone.  At the traffic lights, follow the road around to the right sign posted for Barnstaple (A377) and continue for approximately 1.5 miles arriving at Morchard Road.  Take the next left for Winkleigh (A3220) and continue for approximately 3.9 miles.  At Frogberry Cross turn left for North Tawton.  Continue up the hill for approximately 1/3 of a mile taking the next right turn for Southmoor.  Southmoor Farmhouse will be found on the right hand side shortly afterwards.

COLDRIDGE is a secluded, undisturbed village not far to the north of Dartmoor National Park. Until the early 1900s it was known as ‘Coleridge’ – it is thought to mean the “ridge where charcoal is made”, a sound conclusion, and once where there were wooded hills, now lie green pastures. It rests along the epic ‘Two Moors Way’, a trail that runs from Devon’s South to North Coast – more than an idle wander. For access to a comprehensive choice of facilities the town of Crediton is 9 miles away, a short trip. The nearest train station is Morchard Road, 4 miles away – this sits along the Tarka Line that twists through some of the most scenic parts of Devon, through open country and hidden gorges from the City of Exeter all the way to Barnstaple.
