5 Bedroom Farm House, Hittisleigh, Exeter, EX6

Perfectly nestled in a secluded position at the very end of a ‘no through’ council maintained road is Crayford.  This property really is the countryside idyll in an unspoilt rural area surrounded by farmland and nature with no neighbours in sight.  With 14 acres of paddocks, woodland, stables and garden along with a pond and various useful outbuildings, this property really is a rare find and is being sold with no onward chain.

THE HOUSE

The farmhouse has been extended over the years to create a very spacious and well presented home. The impressive entrance hall with galleried landing and sweeping staircase is the first impression of what’s to follow.  The kitchen with oil aga extends into a modern conservatory with views over the garden and stables and opens onto the patio. There’s a boot room, cloakroom, utility, snug, study, billiard room, dining room and spacious drawing room with a beautiful fireplace and bifold doors out to a patio area.  The 3 woodburning stoves are all Woodwarm, the windows are all very good quality double glazed engineered oak.

Upstairs there are 5 spacious bedrooms, 3 of which are en-suite, the master bedroom being very large with an array of fitted oak wardrobes.  There is a family bathroom and the landing space offers a great spot to relax and enjoy views over the garden.

The plant room provides 2 Worcester boilers, a pressurised water system and 12 solar panels provide a feed-in tariff.

THE BUILDINGS

There is a large array of outbuildings including an oak framed garage with two open bays and an enclosed bay, with storage on either side. There are 5 stables, a large tractor shed, field shelter with space for implements amongst others, water and electricity supplies are ample to these buildings and all offer plenty of space for the needs of the small holding.

THE LAND

The land in total extends to 14 acres which is split down to two main paddocks, one just over 2 acres and one just over 6 acres with two smaller paddocks, the rest amounts to woodland areas, orchard and a naturally stocked pond which attracts ducks and moorhens.  The garden is largely laid to lawn with flower, shrub & tree borders. The land is well fenced and maintained.
