Ilfracombe, Devon
Description:
A 5 bedroom detached former Mill House & detached 3 bedroom Period Barn in favoured edge of village location close to Coast.
SITUATION AND AMENITIES
On the outskirts of the lovely small and unspoilt village of Berrynarbor, the village itself offers community Post Office / general store, an excellent 13th Century village inn, as well as a well-respected primary school. The popular North Devon coastal village of Combe Martin, about 2 miles, is set at the bottom of the hilly coastline, and has a sheltered beach, along with a variety of shops catering for day to day needs. A little further afield, about 3 miles away is the town of Ilfracombe, with its quaint harbour and more extensive shopping facilities and amenities, including supermarket, schools for all ages, leisure centre and theatre. The surrounding countryside and coastline provide excellent recreational facilities, with lovely wide-open beaches at Croyde, Putsborough, Saunton and Woolacombe, all about half an hour by car. The Exmoor National Park provides endless bridleways and footpaths for those who wish to ride or walk, and appreciate the dramatic rugged countryside. Barnstaple town is about 10 miles, or 20 / 25 minutes by car, and as North Devon's regional centre, houses the area's main business, commercial, leisure and shopping venues. A short distance away, access is available to the North Devon Link Road, leading through to Junction 27 of the M5, part of the National Motorway Network, whilst Barnstaple Railhead provides a link to the National Railway System.
DESCRIPTION
We understand that the original mill building dates back to the 17th Century, although the property was largely remodelled and converted during the 1940s to a private dwelling. This imposing property presents elevations principally of stone beneath a slate roof, with stone segmental archways over the window reveals. There is a large later extension at ground floor level providing a castellated balcony / sun deck to the first floor, which can be accessed from the main reception rooms, and makes an ideal area to enjoy al fresco dining in the summer. The generous accommodation is versatile, and considered suitable for single or dual family occupancy or for home / income use, as at present, as the vendors live in part of the building and operate the remainder as a bed & breakfast business (details of turnover can be provided upon request). Adjacent to the main building, there is a detached two-storey barn conversion, known as Cobwebs, which presents similar elevations to the main house. This property has been rented out by the current owners on a self-catering basis, but in a letter received from the local planning authorities in January 2012, it has been confirmed that the current planning use class of this property is C3 as a dwelling house with no occupancy restrictions.
The property enters the market as the vendors are intending to retire and re-locate. They have operated a successful home / income lifestyle business, which could be continued, or the main house could revert to a private residence, subject to any necessary change of use.
The agents would like to draw attention to the fact that the property is approached via a driveway, which is initially shared with the adjoining property, namely Mill Park Touring Caravan Park, which is owned by a separate proprietor. However, a private drive leads off the initially shared drive and the caravan park is well screened from the property, being totally separate from the grounds being offered for sale.
The layout of the accommodation with approximate dimensions is more clearly identified on the accompanying floorplan, but comprises;
