Well positioned within its own land, Lee View lies between South Molton and the Exmoor National Park within a predominantly agricultural landscape of glorious rolling hills and river valleys interspersed with an abundance of woodland. The property enjoys an exceptional setting on a low ridge which runs down through a broader valley, affording superb views over the surrounding countryside. Despite its quiet and peaceful location the property is well situated for easy access to the surrounding districts and main routes of communication. The nearby pretty village of North Molton, known as the ‘Gateway to Exmoor’, provides a local primary school and popular public houses, whilst public schooling is available at West Buckland. The bustling market town of South Molton provides a good range of local services including shops, schools, a health centre, recreational facilities and other amenities.
