Just outside the popular Mid Devon village of Morchard Bishop, set in private grounds of approx. 6 acres is Beech Hill. A collection of properties set within the Beech Hill community. This property is a terrace cottage in the courtyard, formally the dairy and offers a rare opportunity for an affordable home in a semi-rural location. The village with its amenities are only a mile or so away and there’s a bus stop at the end of the drive and walks in almost every direction including the Two Moors Way. It’s 1 of 4 privately owned leasehold properties to the rear of Beech Hill Community House and if you wish, you may become a cooperative member and part of the community but this is optional. If you do then you have access to the entire eco-friendly, 6 acre site,  including a camping paddock and swimming pool (pool is additional £25 year towards maintenance).

The accommodation on the ground floor is open plan with a kitchen/lounge area along with a WC and separate bathroom, stairs lead up to the first floor with a bedroom and partition through to a storage/office area.
