Nestled within the peaceful rural surroundings of Halwill, this impressive extended character farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to embrace a Devon countryside lifestyle, with equestrian living at the heart of the property. Set within approximately 3.3 acres of grounds, this home combines traditional character, modern comfort, and excellent facilities for horse owners, surrounded by beautiful rural views.

The property has been thoughtfully extended and enhanced to create a spacious and adaptable home, while retaining many original character features including exposed beams, feature fireplaces, and traditional detailing. The accommodation offers a flexible layout ideal for family living, multi generational use, or those seeking the perfect balance between a comfortable home and countryside lifestyle.

Upon entering, the home immediately showcases its charm with welcoming reception spaces. The impressive living room provides a wonderful entertaining area, featuring a striking inglenook fireplace, wood burning stove, exposed beams. The sitting room continues the theme of character and comfort, with a further feature fireplace and delightful views across the gardens.

The heart of the home is the generous kitchen and breakfast room, designed as a practical yet sociable space, with a central island, range style cooking facilities, and access towards the outside areas. Further accommodation includes a utility room, pantry, cloakroom, and additional reception rooms currently arranged as an additional bedroom or guest lounge.

The property offers four well proportioned bedrooms, with three of the four benefiting from their own en suite facilities. The principal bedrooms enjoy lovely rural views, while the ground floor bedroom provides excellent flexibility with direct access towards the gardens.

Externally, the property truly comes into its own. The grounds offer formal gardens, meadow, wooded areas, and open space providing a peaceful environment. A private driveway leads to ample parking, while the south facing aspect allows the gardens and surrounding land to be enjoyed throughout the day.

The equestrian facilities are a particular highlight. The acreage is exceptionally well suited for horse ownership, with the current owners comfortably keeping three horses within the grounds. The surrounding area offers superb hacking opportunities directly from the property through quiet country lanes, bridleways, and beautiful Devon countryside.

Further enhancing the equestrian appeal, the current owners have added an impressive American style stable barn, providing a high quality facility with four stable blocks, dedicated tack room, feed area, and rubber turnout area. This creates a fantastic setup for those looking to keep horses at home and enjoy an equestrian lifestyle.

A further standout feature of the property is its exceptional versatility, making it ideally suited to dual occupancy or multi generational living. The generous and adaptable layout allows different generations to enjoy independent living while remaining under one roof, whether accommodating elderly relatives, grown up children, or extended family. With multiple reception rooms, a ground floor bedroom with nearby facilities, and flexible spaces that could easily be configured as a self contained annexe, the property offers a practical solution for a variety of lifestyle needs. Equally, it presents an excellent opportunity for those seeking additional income potential through holiday accommodation, subject to any necessary consents, while still retaining a spacious and comfortable family home.
