COUNTRY SETTING

This charming threebedroom barn conversion with stunning landscaped gardens and parking is ideally located on the cusp of the South Hams countryside with easy connection to the towns of Torbay.

Forming part of Occombe Barns, a charming courtyard of converted barns built in 1900, South Orchard House is situated on the rural outskirts of Preston near Occombe Farm where there is a cafe, nature trails and woodland walks taking you close to the seafront through Scadson Woods.

The barn is deceptively spacious and light and occupies a private corner plot affording it a great deal of privacy within the development.

The house has been extensively refurbished by the current owners and comprises three bedrooms - two with en-suite facilities - and a potential fourth bedroom. There is a spacious sitting room connected to a dining room, and a well-appointed kitchen with a large central island.

A tastefully designed garden with countryside views sits to the rear of the property. It offers a resin-bound patio area with a log cabin-style shed, a circular patio area, and a totally private decked area with an inset hot tub and a retractable awning providing shelter or shade.

Gravelled pathways border a large lawn and paved stepping stones lead up to the property’s bespoke chalet which offers a covered seating area with heaters and electric, as well as a secure garden office with space for an indoor sitting area and a study space.

With two allocated parking spaces plus a garage, South Orchard House has a guide price of £575,000. For more details, contact Stags in Torquay on 01803 200160.
