Description - 10 Longmead comprises a large attached Edwardian residence, circa 1914, which presents part stone and part rendered and part timbered elevations beneath a slate roof. Internally the property boasts many original and unusual features in the Arts & Crafts style, which include bow windows with window seats, canopied fireplace with seating. One room is wood panelled. There are original fitted cupboards. The evidence of maid bells reminds us of a bygone era. This is a rare opportunity to sympathetically restore this grand period home to its former glory, and at the same time stamp ones’ mark on it. The generous, spacious and versatile accommodation may suit those buyers seeking a property suitable for dual occupation, or as a home with income. There is evidence on the Second Floor that one of the rooms – currently described as a bedroom – was formerly a kitchen and that the Top Floor could potentially become a flat, although this would need to be internally accessed. The house is complemented by the well-established secluded garden, which displays many specimen shrubs and trees. There is also a garage and additional parking – a rare commodity in Lynton.
