Situation - Amidst the rolling countryside of the Farway Valley, in the heart of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Farway is a small village dispersed across the picturesque countryside with the parish church of St Michael. The town of Honiton, three miles to the north, is easily accessible and provides everyday essentials and amenities and is widely renowned for its antique, book and independent shops. The stunning Jurassic Coast, designated as a World Heritage Site, at Branscombe is just seven miles away, and provides a vast array of breath-taking coastal walking and cycling routes. Farway has a primary school, whilst further schooling is available in Honiton and the surrounding towns and villages, including Colyton Grammar School.

Description - Understood to have been built in the mid 80s, Farway Cottage is an attractive detached barn conversion style cottage, built of local stone under a slate roof. Over recent years, this superb family home has been completely refurbished, including changes to the original layout, a bespoke kitchen, oil fired central heating system, wood burning stove, hardwood double glazed windows and doors, oak door frames and internal doors, bathroom, en suite shower room, velux windows, carpets upstairs, stone flooring downstairs, an outside patio, outside storm porch with oak beams, and re decorated throughout.

On the ground floor is the dining hall with glazed doors opening to the rear and doors leading to the double aspect kitchen beautifully fitted with a bespoke range of units and granite worktops, along with the sitting room including wood burner and stairs to the first floor.

Upstairs are three double bedrooms, a study and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a good size with beautiful views over the East Devon countryside, and an en suite shower room.

Outside - Benefiting from a generous 0.23 acre plot, the property is set almost centrally within the grounds. There are two entrances; a shared drive with two allocated parking spaces with gate leading to the front, whilst to the rear a five bar gate from the road with gravel driveway leads to a detached timber garage with light and power.

The attractive lawn garden with flowered/shrub borders, patio, timber shed, includes a path leading to a storm porch with oak pillars. Either side of the property are gates to the rear garden, which has recently been beautifully landscaped to take advantage of the spectacular views of the countryside beyond.

Beyond the drive is a stone wall with steps to the kitchen garden, paved terrace perfect for entertaining with pergola and further area of lawn. There are various attractive shrubs and trees throughout.
