Situation - Holt Gate is superbly set on the northern outskirts of the very sought after village of Chittlehamholt, which has a church, village hall, community shop and public house, The Exeter Inn. Also situated on the other side of the village is the renowned Highbullen Hotel & Country Club with its 18 hole golf course and very impressive state of the art leisure facilities.
The local towns of South Molton and Chulmleigh lie about seven miles away respectively and offer a good range of further amenities including schooling to secondary level. The larger regional centre of Barnstaple is about 13 miles and the Cathedral City of Exeter is about 28 miles to the south east.
Both Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks as well as the renowned North Devon coastline are within easy reach by car.
Description - Holt Gate is a highly attractive character property which is Grade II listed and is believed to date from the early 16th Century and is noted as being a 'particularly interesting example' with 'exceptionally high quality interior carpentry'. The accommodation is beautifully presented throughout whilst retaining much of the character associated with a building of its era.
To the rear of the house is a single storey barn that has been converted to a high standard. The barn offers much flexibility in that it can be used either to extend the existing accommodation, as holiday accommodation or for a dependant relative.
The gardens and grounds with the property are also highly attractive and there is a stunning outlook across the Mole Valley to the south east.
Accommodation - To the front is an open PORCH with front door into the CROSS PASSAGE with original oak plank and muntin screens. To the left is a SITTING ROOM with an original timber jetty, exposed ceiling beams and timbers and an impressive fireplace with beam over and oil-fired 'wood burner'.

At one end is a plumbed BAR.

The Cottage - Forming the back drop to the rear paved courtyard is a superbly converted barn that provides additional accommodation to the main house and has the flexibility to be used as a holiday cottage or annexe. There is also the possibility to create two 1 bed units if required.
