Property description
NO NEED FOR A SEPARATE ANNEXE! An incredibly large house in a lovely village setting, offering much flexibility and including 8 double bedrooms, 9.5m sitting room, living room, 2 kitchens, 7m dining room & 4 bath/shower rooms! Garden, garage, gas central heating & double glazing.
DESCRIPTION
Manna House is a historical semi-detached property which is currently an incredibly large family home but in recent times it has been two premises in the form of the former village shop and public house. Currently the house includes 8 double bedrooms, a study and 4 bath/shower rooms upstairs with 2 kitchens, utility room (which is larger than most kitchens!), a fantastic 9.5m (31’) Sitting Room (formally the main bar area!) and a 7m (23ft) Dining Room. The property could be subdivided again to provide smaller properties having 2 staircases already in place. As such is could be used as a nursing home, guest house with a letting cottage (subject to necessary permissions) to provide a useful income or for the property to provide very comfortable dual family occupancy.
The current vendors have extensively updated and improved their home for 25 years and is now found in great order throughout. It also benefits from gas central heating, LED lighting throughout and is almost entirely double glazed. The owners are currently renovating the former shop front with its attached 2nd shop room to create further living accommodation. (An input from the purchaser may be possible depending on the progress made at that time).
Outside the property benefits from a garage/workshop, parking, courtyard garden plus a lovely 18m x 14m enclosed garden which is largely laid to lawn, but also has vegetable plots and a beautiful Ash tree in its centre.
SITUATION
Manna House is situated in the centre of the charming village of Ashreigney between Exmoor and Dartmoor and has a church, village hall and a bus serving Chulmleigh and Barnstaple. The local town of Chulmleigh, approximately four miles, offers an excellent range of day to day amenities, health centre, primary and secondary schooling, whilst the regional centre of Barnstaple (approximately 14 miles distant) offers a more comprehensive range of facilities. The Cathedral City of Exeter is approximately 45 minutes drive away and offers access to the motorway network and main line railway networks. North Devon’s impressive coastline with its steep cliffs and wide sandy beaches is within easy reach by car.
DIRECTIONS
From the A377 Taw Valley road and about a mile west of Chulmleigh at Leigh Cross take the turning signposted to Bridge Reeve. Proceed along this lane down towards the river, cross over the bridge and turn right. Continue along this lane and proceed up the hill into Ashreigney. Manna House will be found on the corner of the square on the right hand side from the stone cross.
