An exceptionally well converted 3 bedroom barn conversion in a sought after rural location. Complete with 3 bedrooms, kitchen/dining/sitting room, 3 bathrooms, double garage and an option to purchase about 2 acres, EPC Band B.

Situation - The property is situated close to the old centre of the pretty South Hams village of Marldon bordering some of South Devon's most picturesque rolling countryside. Marldon is full of history and character and is well served by two good pubs, village shops and post office, a well-regarded primary school, church and a very active community hall hosting various clubs. Plenty of countryside walks around the area are right on the doorstep whilst the sandy beaches of Torbay and the magnificent Dartmoor National Park are only a short distance away. The larger towns of Paignton, Torquay, Newton Abbot and Totnes are close by with mainline railway stations and wider amenities, whilst access to the A380 is easy linking to Exeter and the M5.

Description - The former barn was originally built in the 1850s and has been sympathetically converted by the owner, who has used high quality materials and superb craftsmen to create this sought after, bright and airy, property. The property makes the most of the large window openings to allow much light to flood into the property. It has been designed incredibly well, included curved walls and building materials such as solid engineered oak flooring, solid oak doors and staircases, independently controlled underfloor heating thermostats to each room, electric sockets with USB A & C sockets together with all the rooms linked to a multi-media system.

The property has been developed with running costs in mind, using an air source heat pump for heating and a photo-voltaic solar array on the roof.

Accommodation - From the large, partially glazed, timber door, the wide tiled staircase hall has a large cupboard for coat storage, stairs rising to the first floor and doors to the two double bedrooms. Bedroom 2 has an en-suite bathroom with a shower over and a separate door to outside. Bedroom 3 has an oak parquet-effect floor with an en-suite shower room with corner quadrant shower. A door leads past the utility room, where the underfloor heating manifold controls are located, with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble drier. A further door leads into the double garage with sliding garage doors where the hot water cylinder storage tank, the solar array control system and the multi-media control panel are located.

The stairs wind up to the fantastic open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, with a bespoke kitchen supplied by Doug Farleigh, with under-plinth lighting, all with upgraded soft-close pan drawers, with a double handmade fireclay butler sink by Shaws, integrated Blomberg fan-assisted ovens and integrated Neff fridge/freezer split 70:30, with an additional full height integrated Whirlpool freezer alongside. There are provisions made under the Belfast sink for a dishwasher to be fitted. There is a large island unit with a Blomberg 4-ring induction hob with pop-up extractor. The room benefits from a fantastic sense of space, highlighted by the exposed 'A' frame ceiling timbers into the eaves of the roof. The large window openings and a Velux rooflight affords much light to flood into the property. Above the kitchen is a hatch for storage and at the far end there is a Dik Geurts 3-faced wood burning stove. There are multiple double sockets and a television point. An oak and glazed door leads through to bedroom 1 where to one side of the curved wall is a dressing room and a door which leads through to the en-suite shower room with a large shower cubicle with waterfall shower. From the bedroom a pair of patio doors lead out onto the garden where the LG Therma VS air source heat pump is located.

The garden is mainly a level turfed area with a low stone wall and timber fencing with a small flower bed at the far end.
