Stone farmhouse with two holiday cottages in about 0.63 acres
Situation - The property is located in a rural setting within the parish of Northleigh which lies between the market town of Honiton and the coastal resort of Sidmouth. Northleigh nestles in a sheltered valley in the East Devon National Landscape (formally known as AONB) has a pretty Parish Church and Village Hall as well as delightful walks throughout the locality. The property is gently elevated set within its own mature gardens and grounds which extend in all to 0.63 acres with views over the surrounding fields and down the valley.
The market town of Honiton is a 15 minute drive and lies approximately 4 miles to the north west and has a range of independent shops including many antique shops, a main line rail link to London (Waterloo) and 6 miles to the south is the World Heritage Site colloquially known as the Jurassic Coast at Lyme Bay. Exeter, the Cathedral City and County Town, is some 21 miles distant with an excellent shopping centre, theatres, main line rail link to London (Paddington), M5 motorway access and small international airport. The property lies approximately 5 miles from the renowned Colyton Grammar School, one of England's top secondary schools.
Farmhouse - At the heart of Slade Dairy stands the former farmhouse, an impressive property built in traditional flint stone with a fibre cement roof. Thought to date back over two centuries, the house has benefitted from more recent extensions that blend seamlessly with the original vernacular, offering both character and practicality.
Accommodation is arranged over two floors, with four bedrooms accessed via two staircases and served by two well-appointed bathrooms. The farmhouse kitchen is a particular highlight, featuring an Everhot electric range cooker and complemented by a generously sized utility room. Two inviting reception rooms, each with their own fireplaces with woodburning stoves, enjoy a lovely aspect and offer picturesque views over the gardens and surrounding countryside, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.
A versatile office and store room adjoin the farmhouse, perfect for home working and additional storage.
Cottages - Adjacent to the farmhouse are two delightful holiday cottages, each offering well-proportioned two-bedroom accommodation. Converted just under twenty years ago, these cottages have been thoughtfully restored to retain their original character while providing modern comforts for guests. Exposed beams and tasteful finishes create a welcoming environment, and both cottages have been successfully let out for holiday accommodation, generating a valuable income stream. Both accessed through a separate gate so completely private from the house.
The cottages have their own parking and outside patio area, then access to the swings/play area.
Barn - Adjoining the cottages is an open-fronted car barn with an adjoining store, providing practical solutions for vehicle parking and storage.
Gardens - Slade Dairy is set within mature gardens and grounds extending to about 0.63 acres. The gardens are a particular feature, with established planting, south-facing lawns, and a peaceful outlook over the surrounding fields and valley.
There is ample space for outdoor entertaining, relaxation, and recreation, making the gardens a haven for both residents and guests, enhanced by the shepherds hut style garden room.
The gently elevated position of the property ensures privacy and wonderful views, while the grounds offer a sense of tranquillity and connection to the countryside.
Parking - The farmhouse is approached over a concrete drive with parking for several cars. Parking also in the adjoining open fronted car barn.
Services - Mains water and electric. Oil fired central heating. Private drainage to treatment plant. Fibre broadband connected (up to 1,800 Mbps), mobile signal variable outdoor with all networks (Ofcom).
Holiday Cottages - Buttercup Cottage EPC C, Daisy Cottage EPC C.
Directions - From Honiton head south towards Honiton Golf Course. Past the golf course and continue along Northleigh Hill Road until you reach Northleigh Cross and turn left signposted Widworthy 2 miles. Continue on this lane over the ford and the property will be found a short distance on the right hand side.
