Description
A truly captivating 4 Bedroom detached residence, "Westacombe Barn" is an exceptional example of a period barn conversion, combining rich character features with an elegant contemporary finish. Occupying a privileged, south-facing position, the property enjoys breathtaking, far-reaching views across unspoilt Devon countryside offering a rare sense of peace, privacy and rural sophistication. Thoughtfully enhanced in recent years, this distinctive home now presents an exquisite balance of charm, comfort and versatility.
The interiors are beautifully appointed throughout, with a series of considered upgrades including new aluminium framed double glazed windows, a stunning newly fitted kitchen and refined internal enhancements that elevate the overall presentation.
A welcoming Reception Hall sets the tone, leading to a superb Living Room where a newly installed log burner creates a warm focal point, complemented by bi-fold doors opening onto the veranda, framing the glorious countryside outlook beyond.
The property further benefits from 2 separate staircases, a rare and highly practical feature that enhances the natural flow and flexibility of the accommodation.
The elegant Dining / Sitting Room benefits from bi-fold doors leading to the paved patio seating area whilst also flooding the room with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the landscaped garden beyond. This highly sociable reception room also provides access to a stylish Wet Room and features a staircase leading to the principal bedroom suite. The dining room, wet room and principal bedroom could potentially form a refined self-contained area, ideal for multi-generational living or occasional guest accommodation.
The newly installed Kitchen / Breakfast Room is a particular highlight, beautifully designed with a range of stylish matching cupboards and drawers, breakfast bar, oak worktops, integrated appliances and a striking Rangemaster-style cooker at its heart, perfectly blending style and functionality.
The first floor is equally impressive, offering a superb sense of space and light. The magnificent Principal Bedroom enjoys truly spectacular panoramic countryside views - an ever-changing rural backdrop that is nothing short of breathtaking. Three further beautifully proportioned Bedrooms provide versatile accommodation, ideal for family, guests or home working, all served by a well-appointed Family Bathroom and generous landing space.
Externally, the property continues to excel. Set within its idyllic rural surroundings, the south-facing garden has been thoughtfully landscaped for both beauty and ease of maintenance, featuring expansive lawns, mature borders and established fruit trees. There are numerous seating areas to enjoy the countryside surroundings, whilst ample parking is available alongside a substantial Double Garage - now enhanced with a newly fitted electric door.
