The first floor offers five excellent double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive suite, featuring generous proportions and a modern en-suite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms (two, three, four and five) are all spacious doubles and are served by two further well-appointed family bathrooms — one with a three-piece suite, the other with a four-piece suite including a separate shower cubicle.
Adjoining the main house, the two-bedroom cottage/annexe provides exceptional versatility. It features an open-plan living space with a fitted kitchen on the ground floor, while upstairs offers two bedrooms and a family bathroom. This self-contained accommodation is ideal for extended family, guests, or potential rental income.
Outside, the gardens are simply delightful. Extending to just under an acre, they are predominantly laid to level lawns, framed by mature hedging, trees and shrubs which provide both colour and privacy throughout the seasons. The south-facing orientation ensures sunshine for much of the day, and a paved patio terrace adjoining the conservatory offers the perfect place for morning coffee or evening drinks as the sun sets over the countryside.
Peaceful yet highly convenient, Herton Farm enjoys a charming semi-rural position within easy reach of Barnstaple, North Devon’s regional centre, offering a wide range of shops, restaurants, schools and leisure facilities. The stunning beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are all within a short drive, as are the rolling landscapes of Exmoor National Park.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly flexible country home with scope for dual-family living, home-based business use, or simply as a substantial private residence surrounded by the peace and tranquillity of North Devon countryside.
From the main square in Barnstaple with the clock tower, leave the square passing over long bridge and continue to the stones roundabout/sticklepath roundabout. Take the second exit up the hill to Sticklepath and Bideford. Within a couple of hundred yards take the sharp left to Tawstock. From here drop down the hill take the 2nd exit at the roundabout and up the hill as though to Lake and Tawstock. Just after levelling out at the top of the hill, passing a small new development of 2 on your left and not far thereafter you will see a stone and cream rendered wall to your right (there will be a Fine & Country for sale board displayed). Take the turn immediately before this point and into the shared drive and Herton is the first entrance to your left.
