Kentisbury, Barnstaple, EX31

John Smale and Co are delighted to present to the market Brewood House. The property is set within an elevated and commanding position on the fringes of Exmoor. This individual and impressive detached house enjoys some spectacular views of the surrounding countryside and valley, whilst being nestled within an attractive plot, believed to extend to approximately 3/4 acre. The property has been sympathetically renovated and refurbished in recent years, to include 22 new windows, new doors, new woodburner and flue, new bathroom suites, gorgeous slate flooring, recently fitted carpets to the lounge, stairs and landing and a fabulous bespoke fitted kitchen with range of high quality integrated appliances and granite work tops. Modern and advanced fibre optic technology has been recently installed, which generates 130 megabytes. Previously a four bedroom property, the house has been re-modelled to offer larger living space, including a snug area leading off the kitchen and a very generous living room with dining area. The ground floor also incorporates a cloakroom, spacious entrance hall and a well equipped utility room, leading off the kitchen. The first floor accommodation does not disappoint, with a bright landing area with balcony, stylish family bathroom and three good sized double bedrooms. The main bedroom benefits from a contemporary en-suite shower room. Many of the rooms are double or triple aspect with large windows, allowing lots of natural daylight to flood in, the the majority taking full advantage of the wonderful views. The approach to the house is via a sweeping driveway, which leads to an extensive parking area and double garage. The grounds are a gardeners delight, with an abundance of shrubs, plants, flowers, mature trees and attractive borders. You will also find a wild garden, productive vegetable plot and a greenhouse. A truly special property, situated in an idyllic location.
