Set in a truly stunning location, this attached period barn conversion enjoys spectacular panoramic views of fields and woodland as far as Dartmoor from the majority of the property and is rural without being isolated. An abundance of beautiful features grace the house throughout which provides spacious and flexible accommodation to suit any number of lifestyles. Excellent equestrian or smallholding opportunities are provided by the approx. two acre paddock with field shelter and a separate stable block.

The Utility Room has a window to the front and is fitted with wooden base units with work surfaces over and cupboards and drawers under incorporating a stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap and splashback tiling, space for washing machine and tumble dryer and tiled flooring.

The Dining Room has a mono-pitched ceiling with exposed roof trusses, a full height window to the front enjoying spectacular views of Dartmoor, a wood burning stove set on a slate hearth and ash flooring.

From the kitchen, a further door leads into the Inner Hall where you will find the stairs to the first floor with an under stairs storage cupboard housing battery storage for the solar panels, and wooden lift-latch doors. The Shower Room has a feature tiled floor and is fitted with a wall mounted sink unit with mixer tap and splashback tiling, a corner shower cubicle and heated towel rail. A step up and door leads from the inner hall to the Sitting Room which has windows to the front and rear, exposed beams to the ceiling and wooden lift-latch doors to the entrance hall and the Drawing Room/Bedroom 5. This latter room is a beautiful split-level space with vaulted ceiling and exposed roof trusses, arched windows to front and rear and a glazed door leading to the rear courtyard garden. There is a limestone fireplace with wood burning stove, large wooden mantel and feature display shelves on the chimney breast, in addition to sweet chestnut flooring.

An oak staircase rises from the inner hall to a half-landing with window to the rear and turns to the First Floor Landing, which benefits from three skylights, affording an abundance of natural light, a large storage cupboard and wooden doors to all rooms. Bedroom 1 is a lovely, spacious room with two windows to the rear, a vaulted ceiling with exposed roof trusses and steps up with lift-latch door to the En-Suite Shower Room, which has a frosted window to the rear and is fitted with a corner shower cubicle with rainfall shower and hand-held attachment, a pedestal hand basin, low level WC and fully tiled walls and floor.

Both are good sized doubles with exposed beams and windows to the front and rear respectively.

The property is approached via a shared access driveway over which both Candleford and its neighbour, Larkrise, have a right of way. A substantial parking area lies to the front of the house and provides access to the garage. There is also a mature apple tree near the entrance which we are told is beautiful in flower and produces lovely fruits. To the immediate rear of the house is a large south facing courtyard garden with fenced perimeters accessed from the sitting room and play room. A wooden gate leads through to a grassed area with a useful wooden storage shed and on to the stable block. Adjacent to this is a shrubbery area with stone-edged pathways meandering through and small standing stones and planted with a wide variety of ornamental plants including hydrangea, honeysuckle, fuchsia and primrose. The Paddock is accessed via a pedestrian gate and extends to approximately two acres. The borehole for the water supply is located on this land, along with a field shelter (in need of some attention) and has hedged and fenced perimeters. A Devon Bank separates the paddock from a green walkway running the length of the field to a further courtyard area with gate providing ingress for vehicles, enabling easy transport for animals. The gardens and grounds extend to approximately 21⁄4 acres in total and spectacular views of Dartmoor can be enjoyed from nearly every part of the property including many rooms in the house.

A very large garage and workshop space with double wooden doors to the front and a good sized mezzanine level providing useful storage space. Housed in the garage are the oil fired boiler and the water treatment plant (the latter shared with Larkrise).

Approximately 14ft x 12ft stable with attached tack room and concrete yard in front. Fenced perimeters with gates leading onto the driveway and through to the rear garden.
