MAIN PARAGRAPH
This is a great opportunity to acquire a superbly converted old school house in a peaceful rural hamlet between Holsworthy & Okehampton, retaining character features, and benefiting from a 36ft Sitting Room/Dining Room. It features a single storey, double glazed, oil fired centrally heated, 4 bedroom (2 en-suite) residence with ample off road parking, and lawned gardens. No onward chain.
THE RESIDENCE
This stone and slate roofed property is believed to have been constructed in the mid 1870's, and up to 2 years ago, was used as the local school. It has been converted by the existing vendors who have afforded considerable time and resources with great attention to details, and the use of quality materials and finishes to enhance the property considerably. The property successfully combines the charm and character associated with properties of this period with modern facilities such as a contemporary kitchen, and modern bathroom suites. The double glazed, and oil fired centrally heated (which is a combination of underfloor heating and radiators) accommodation briefly comprises:- Entrance Hall with Cloakroom, Sitting Room/Dining Room, Kitchen, Inner Hallway, En-Suite Master Bedroom with Dressing Room, 3 Further Bedrooms (1 with En-Suite), and Family Bathroom.
LOCATION
The property sits in the peaceful hamlet of Halwill, next to the village church. The village of Halwill Junction is approximately 1.5 miles away with its selection of shops, village hall, sub-post office, and public house. The market towns of Holsworthy and Hatherleigh are approximately 8 miles equi-distant west and east respectively, and Okehampton which is on the northern fringes of the Dartmoor Nation Park is 12 miles to the South. All 3 towns offer a wide variety of shopping together with doctors, dentists, veterinary surgeons, and schooling facilities, with Okehampton offering A level courses, light industrial estates, and excellent sporting facilities. Roadford Lake is 5 miles to the South and here you can enjoy sailing and windsurfing, together with fly fishing from large stocks of brown trout. Bude on the North Cornish Coast with its safe sandy surfing beaches is some 17 miles. Access to the A30 dual carriageway can be found at Okehampton, and connects to the Cathedral cities of Exeter & Truro.
DIRECTIONS TO FIND
From Holsworthy take the A3072 Hatherleigh Road and turn right at Dunsland Cross signposted Halwill/Okehampton.
