3 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Less than a mile from the nearest village of Bow, Nymet Tracey is a small hamlet of properties around the ancient church of St Bartholomew. Bow offers public transport connections to Crediton and Okehampton plus a primary school, garden centre with post office and café and a great village shop. It’s a great community with plenty going on.Tythe Barn was originally converted in the 1980’s and has been further altered over the past 40 years or so. Today it offers characterful and flexible accommodation with the kitchen being in the heart of the home. The current owners have invested in a wood pellet stove which is very efficient, economic and combines well with the electric heating and wood-burner. It’s worth noting that the property is on split levels, so it’s got a unique feel with two reception rooms, the living room which is a lovely room with the wood-burner and a door to the front garden plus a snug on a mezzanine off the kitchen adding a secondary seating area. The three bedrooms are all of a good size with the master bedroom having an ensuite. The flexibility comes by the option to use one of the bedrooms as a dining room or study which could be handy! We love the quirky layout which adds unexpected storage and down from the kitchen is a very handy utility room and door to the two carports plus a useful storage room, and the car ports make ideal storage or hobby space.To the front of the property, the front garden sets it back from the country lane and offers a lawned area with a summer house, planted beds and paved seating area. The pretty path and planting frames the front door really well and is a welcoming introduction. Through the archway to the side, there’s vehicle access to the two parking spaces in front of the double carport and also access to the rear garden. This is a lovely retreat, well screened and level, it offers excellent growing areas with raised beds, a greenhouse and areas to sit out.
