Description

                        

Luscombe Maye are delighted to present this enchanting two-bedroom converted barn with natural woodland land, set on the edge of Harberton village. Hidden from the sights and sounds of modern life, this semi-detached home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy countryside living in a truly tranquil setting.

Offered for sale for the first time since its 2004 renovation and with no onward chain, the property blends character and comfort throughout. The accommodation includes two double bedrooms, a charming front courtyard garden, and off-road parking, making it ideal as a main residence or rural retreat.

A lawned courtyard to the front provides a delightful spot for morning coffee, with a pathway leading into a spacious open-plan living area. Inside, exposed beams and a centrally positioned wood-burning stove create warmth and character, while the generous kitchen and dining space offers ample worktop and storage, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. A downstairs WC and an external door opening onto woodland views complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and built-in wardrobes offer light and space, while the family bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower over, hand basin, and WC.

To the rear, the property enjoys a wonderful setting with grounds extending to just under one acre of beautiful natural woodland. This mature woodland provides a private and picturesque backdrop, creating a tranquil environment rich in wildlife and seasonal colour, while offering ample space for relaxation, exploration, and enjoyment of the surrounding nature.

Please note the 4x5m cabin isn't currently included in the sale, but open to separate negotiation.

HARBERTON 

Harberton is one of the South Hams' most sought after villages, being close to Totnes and having its own strong community centring around St Andrew's Church, the popular Church House Inn and the parish hall. With an outstanding village pub and farm shop selling local produce (both within walking distance), it offers a superb lifestyle in an idyllic location. Totnes, within about 2 miles, is known as an Elizabethan town but has much earlier origins with a castle, a wonderful position on the River Dart and a main line railway station. It has a well regarded community college, full range of shops, a weekly market and a wide choice of cultural facilities.

DIRECTIONS

From Harberton village, go out the other side, uphill for a while, downhill for a while, over a small stone bridge and then uphill again. The first crossroads after the small stone bridge is called Eastleigh Cross (the name is on the post, but it might not be easily visible at certain times of year). Turn left here.
The barns are about 300 yards from this crossroads, the third entrance / opening on the right. First you’ll pass the entrance to Homeleigh Cottages, then High & Thatch Barn. Take the next entrance on the right which will take you between 'Overleigh' stone pillars into a gravelled courtyard with a large white farmhouse directly opposite you.
Park just inside the stone pillars, the main courtyard is pedestrian only.
