Individual house & annexe - Set within mature grounds and close to the ever-popular village of Shebbear, Smoky House is a beautiful 3/5 bedroom period residence offering tremendous flexibility, situated in the very heart of the idyllic North Devon countryside. Boasting adaptable accommodation and arranged as a charming 3 bedroom home with additional 2 bedroom annexe, the property would be ideal for those seeking dual occupancy with space for a dependent relative or a home to derive an income. Now with all new double glazing. The property offers well-planned accommodation with a wealth of attractive character features and South-facing gardens, ideal for those seeking "The Good Life" without being "off the beaten track". Also not far from the picturesque coastline, this is the perfect Lifestyle within this tranquil semi-rural setting.
Shebbear is a popular village with a vibrant community offering a range of amenities such as a village hall, mobile Post Office, Shebbear community primary school, Shebbear College and The Devil's Stone Inn - which usually hosts the annual Turning of The Devil's Stone event! The nearby towns of Torrington & Bideford are both close to hand, along with the coastal resort of Bude. Torrington is a small market town offering a range of local shops and stores, primary and secondary schooling, public houses and restaurants and The Plough Arts Centre. Just to the edge of the town is rhs Rosemoor. In addition, the historic port town of Bideford provides a traditional pannier market and an array of independent shops, cafes and bistro's and a regular farmers market. The picturesque quayside is still a busy working port with ships regularly seen sailing in and out of the estuary.
Barnstaple, the regional centre, is approximately 23 miles distant and provides High Street shopping, a rail link to Exeter in the South and a convenient route to the M5 motorway via the North Devon Link Road.
In brief, the property is approached at the front by an entrance porch and inviting hallway, welcoming you into the home.
The ground floor accommodation comprises a generous sitting room, with inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove, and adaptable snug/media room at the front of the home. At the rear of the property is a spacious kitchen/diner opening to a convenient utility room and ground floor cloak/shower room.
The first floor accommodation provides three double bedrooms, two of which with fitted wardrobes and overlooking at the front of the home, along with a further bedroom and family bathroom found at the rear.
In addition, the property provides a single story annexe to one side, comprising a well-fitted kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, a shower room and conservatory/reception room. This is currently run as a successful holiday let but could be utilised for dual occupancy for a dependant relative or incorporated into the main home for more space.
Within the grounds, there is also a unique American style rv with it's own private garden to the rear which could generate a healthy income as an individual Air B&B.
Outside, the mature grounds extend to approximately 1/2 acre and enjoy a sunny South-facing aspect being laid mostly to lawn with natural boundaries and well-established plants and trees.
There is ample off-road parking for a number of vehicles along with a double garage with additional roof space and a separate outbuilding. Both of which could be converted further, subject to the necessary planning consents - planning permission to convert to ancillary accommodation has recently lapsed (planning number 1/0205/2019/ful).
There is also a further garden room which could make for a wonderful studio/office.
In all, this characterful home really has a lot to offer and is not to be missed.
