Codden Hill House offers a truly rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and elegant portion of one of North Devon's most distinctive period homes. Set in a tranquil and highly sought-after village location, this magnificent residence occupies the central wing of a Grade II Listed former Vicarage — a property of considerable architectural merit and historical significance, beautifully converted in the 1960s into three exceptional homes.

From the moment you arrive, it is clear that this is no ordinary home. Combining timeless character, grand proportions, and refined styling, a residence that offers both the charm of a bygone era and the practicality required for modern living. Rich in period features, the property spans three floors, delivering flexible, well-appointed accommodation ideal for family life, entertaining, or simply enjoying peaceful country living.

A Grand and Versatile Interior

Stepping through the front door, you are welcomed by a spacious reception hall — the perfect introduction to the home's scale and sense of history. From here, a cloakroom provides practicality for guests, while the central living room acts as the heart of the home, complete with character features and generous proportions. This space flows effortlessly into a warm and inviting sitting room and a formal dining room, each room imbued with individual charm and natural light.

An arched doorway — a delightful architectural feature — leads from the reception rooms to a well-equipped fitted kitchen, offering ample storage and workspace. A useful utility room lies adjacent, enhancing the functionality of the ground floor without compromising on aesthetics, with a door leading straight from here into the rear garden.

The first-floor landing leads to two expansive double bedrooms, each with lovely outlooks and original features. A well-appointed family bathroom serves this level, and a fifth bedroom or study offers flexibility for those wishing to work from home or accommodate guests.

On the second floor, a charming landing or snug area provides a quiet retreat, ideal for reading or relaxing. This floor also houses a shower room and two further generously-sized double bedrooms, each full of character and enjoying elevated views over the garden and surrounding countryside. This floor is perfect for a dependant relative.

Exquisite Gardens and Outdoor Living

The setting of this home is every bit as captivating as its interior. The property is approached via a shared private driveway that serves the three dwellings within Codden Hill House. Number Two enjoys its own designated parking area with space for up to four vehicles, in addition to a substantial double garage, which features twin garage doors, separate pedestrian access, lighting, power, and water — making it suitable for a wide range of uses.

The front garden is laid mainly to lawn with a charming pathway leading towards the garage and house. To the rear lies the jewel of the outdoor space: a beautifully landscaped terraced garden arranged across three levels. Designed with both relaxation and outdoor entertaining in mind, the garden includes an array of seating and lawned areas, a paved sun terrace, ornamental pond, a rockery with water feature, and at the lowest level, a lovely lawned area adjacent to a gently flowing stream — a serene and idyllic spot where one could even launch a kayak or simply listen to the sounds of nature.

Mature planting, a sunny aspect, and the sense of seclusion combine to create a garden that feels like a private sanctuary — perfect for al fresco dining, gardening, or spending time with family and friends.
