Outside, the property is bordered by deer proof fencing and enjoys wonderful well stocked gardens and grounds which extend to approximately 5.5 acres, laid mainly to lawn.

Beyond the larger ponds, the owners have created a wonderful woodland walk, between the well-established trees and wild flowers.
There is a stable block with power and water which offers the potential for the owner to have a small pony at the property, plus a heated greenhouse and productive vegetable plot.
The property enjoys a large detached annexe building, opposite the main house, with a private lawn area.

DIRECTIONS : From Tiverton take the A361 link road towards Barnstaple. Take the Moortown Cross turning to Rackenford. Turn immediately left again over two cattle grids and the property is on the right.
Tiverton is the largest town in Mid Devon, on the banks of the Exe River, with antique roots in the wool and lace trades (retaining one of the oldest examples of a woolen mill in the country). Boat trips are also offered along the ‘Grand Western Canal’, an import and export route once critical to the town’s success. Other historical attractions include a castle, built in 1106 and the ‘Tiverton Museum of Mid Devon Life’ – a time capsule exploring rural industrialisation and bygone ways of living. With respect to facilities, Tiverton is modern and caters for most needs. However, Exeter is a short drive away (30 mins) – serving up the full city experience, including brilliant nightlife and shopping. Tiverton also has swift access to the M5, 30 mins to Taunton. The proximity to Exeter and Taunton combine, making it an ideal commuter town. Schooling: Tiverton has both state and private options – both of which are excellent.
Rackenford is a very sought after village with an excellent local community, complete with shop, little primary school, church and one of Devon’s oldest pubs, The Stag Inn.
