A unique modern conversion of a 19th century pillared barn set on the edge of this favoured semi rural village. The accommodation incorporates stunning full-height double glazed hardwood windows, taking full advantage of the stunning views over the open countryside beyond. The property benefits from extensive parking, detached double garage with attached office space and gardens of around 0.7 acres.
Situation & Amenities - The property is located on the fringe of Exmoor and the favoured village of Stoke Rivers which is a pretty unspoilt village with a good community spirit. The nearby villages of Bratton Fleming and Goodleigh offer community facilities including primary schooling as well as the prestigious West Buckland School being only 10 minutes away. There is a fantastic gastro-pub in the next village, Goodleigh - a nice place to walk along the bridleway to for Sunday lunch. Barnstaple town centre is a 10-minute drive away and as the Regional Centre, offers the area’s main business, commercial, leisure and shopping venues as well as North Devon district hospital. At South Molton, the North Devon link road can be joined giving access, in a further 30 minutes or so, to Junction 27 of the M5 Motorway and where Tiverton Parkway offers a fast service of trains to London Paddington in just over 2 hours. North Devon’s famous surfing beaches are less than half an hour away and Exmoor National Park is just 10 minutes away.
Description - Northgate is a fine example of a unique conversion of a former agricultural pillared Grade II Listed barn understood to be a former linhay, which retains 5 pairs of stone pillars which can be found on both sides of the property, something that is rarely found. The accommodation now incorporates stunning full-height double glazed hardwood windows, allowing an abundance of natural light to flood the interior, taking full advantage of the stunning views over the mature gardens and open countryside beyond. Externally the property benefits from extensive parking and a detached double garage with attached office space. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn and extend to approximately 0.7 of an acre. This is certainly a property that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Accommodation - Glazed front door leading to large Entrance Hall with slate tiled flooring, hardwood staircase to first floor, cloakroom off with coat hanging space and w/c with 2 piece white suite. The kitchen/dining room is generous in size with full height glazed windows, slate flooring, space for dining table and a door to the rear leading out to the garden. The kitchen offers a range of modern units with ample work surfaces and integrated Bosch appliances. Off is a useful utility room with appliance space and plumbing for white goods. On the Ground Floor is a large double bedroom with built in mirror-fronted wardrobes with sliding doors. A family bathroom comprises 4 piece white suite with bath with shower over, vanity wash basin, w/c, and bidet. Completing the Ground Floor accommodation is a studio 'area that can be used as a second living room space.
A bespoke timber open staircase gives access to the First Floor galleried landing again with full height glazing to the front elevation with balcony and stunning countryside views. The lounge with its vaulted ceiling is an impressive room with large feature fireplace and modern style wood burner. Glazed door leads to a metal balcony with stairs leading down to the garden. The Master bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom with white 4 piece suite with bath with shower attachment, vanity wash basin, w/c, and bidet. There is a further separate shower room with shower cubicle, w/c, and wash basin. A second flight of stairs leads to a generous mezzanine area with eaves storage and a large 3rd bedroom
Outside - The property is approached through five-bar timber gates giving access to a sizeable gravel driveway, providing an extensive parking and turning area. There is a detached timber double garage with twin up and over doors. Adjoining this is a useful home office space with sink and WC. EV charging point connected.

Property information from this agent
About this agent

The office conducts the sale and letting of all town, village and country property and land throughout North Devon. As the regional office, Barnstaple works closely with Stags' two other North Devon offices at Bideford and South Molton. The Barnstaple office covers an area from Instow to West Exmoor, and inland to meet the boundary of South Molton. This includes an extensive stretch of coastline, as well as the Taw and Torridge Estuaries, which keeps the firm's Waterside Property Department extremely busy. North Devon is a wonderful place to live, work and visit. It is special for its people, its culture and its beautiful environment - most of it is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
