5 bedroom detached house for sale

Dyke Green Farm is a substantial five-bedroom, five bathroom detached period home that is located within Clovelly Dyke, one of the largest and most impressive early Iron Age hill forts in Devon. This beautiful home was originally converted in 1979 and is situated just minutes away from the popular and iconic fishing village of Clovelly. The property offers far reaching sea views from its upper windows.

This property consists of an area exceeding 3000SQFT and has had a complete scheme of modernisation throughout by the current owner to a high standard in modern decor and neutral tones. It provides well-planned and spacious accommodation with good circulation that would suit a variety of lifestyles.

With two accessible driveways and expansive parking facilities there are extensive lawn gardens and shingled areas to enjoy. There is the option to continue the lease (subject to landlord’s consent) of the approximately one-acre field with two large pole barns which can be used for vehicle storage and/or animal shelter.

One of the particularly unusual features of this property is the large 50’x 30' workshop/garage unit that is separate from the house which would be ideal for anyone looking to run their own business from home or provide additional income if it was rented out. It features both ground floor and partial upper floor accommodation with main floor area, workshop and storage room/site office.
