There is the potential to generate substantial additional income from the provision of additional leisure related facilities particularly from the development of equestrian activities,(the stabling and manege is already there but currently unused and there is ample land for the grazing and the exercising of ponies and horses.)
Sherway farm currently consists of the main house, three holiday cottages, two large barns, children's play area, an area of woodland adjoining Paradise Copse (owned by the National Trust) the Hobbit (a summerhouse) and a treehouse/bird hide.
The current owners have invested the past 17 years restoring and updating the main house and converting the old farm buildings into use as holiday cottages. All of this work has been completed to the highest standards.
The property is approached by a sweeping gravelled private driveway through the grounds with an immaculate lawned area on your right hand side and a large paddock to your left. Arriving at the house there is extensive parking serving the main house and the holiday cottages. The house has exceptional views over the gardens and grounds and the countryside beyond.
The entrance to the house is by way of a generous entrance hall which has the original Edwardian tiled floor and is in excellent condition. The principal reception rooms are located off the entrance hall. They have many original features and are well lit throughout. Both have attractive fireplaces and beautifully restored bay windows with far reaching views.
The entrance hall leads through to a modern fitted kitchen with a Belfast sink and a range of built appliances and ample storage space. Off the kitchen is a fully fitted prep kitchen / breakfast room and leads on to a wide through passage which can be accessed from both the front and rear of the house. The passage provides access to the boiler and laundry room, a downstairs toilet and shower room and a boot room.
The first-floor rooms are accessed by an imposing wooden staircase in the entrance hall.
There are four beautifully appointed double bedrooms, the principal bedroom having a newly installed walk-in shower. There is a generous family bathroom and a separate WC.
Beyond the main house are the three holiday cottages, The Dairy (One bed), The Shippen (Two bed) and The Coach House (Three bed) All have been equipped and furnished to a very high standard and offer spacious accommodation throughout. All three of the cottages have individual hot tubs outside of the respective properties. Each has a small garden with far reaching views of the surrounding countryside.

What makes Sherway Farm so special is its idyllic setting which provides complete seclusion and privacy in the beautiful East Devon countryside.
The grounds include an area of mature woodland, a pond with a treehouse/ bird hide and a meandering stream which borders Paradise Copse, part of which is situated in the grounds of Sherway Farm. Indeed it could be said that the current owners own their very own piece of “paradise”. There are several outbuildings including a large agricultural barn, a workshop and garden store. Behind the large barn there are stables and a manege ideal for those planning to provide for the equestrian user. There is also a somewhat quirky garden room / hideaway at the top of the garden which is known as “The Hobbit” and a well-equipped children's play area.
Sherway Farm is situated on the western side of Clyst Hydon Village. It is 6 miles from Junction 28 of the M5 Motorway and is accessible from the A30/303 to Exeter International Airport.
Cullompton is only 4.9 miles away and provides Tesco and Aldi Supermarkets and a limited range of every day shopping. The thriving market town of Tiverton is only 10 miles away. With its fine cathedral and world-renowned university Exeter City is only 30 minutes' drive and is well served by a range of restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities together with an extensive range of shopping.

There is a fine C of E church, a very successful cricket club with is own clubhouse and ground, a very active village hall and open air swimming pool all run by the local community.
