The property is presented very much in keeping with its period and offers a lovely comfortable home to live, however for some, modernisation will be required. There are TWO LARGE OUTBUILDINGS, one of which lies adjacent to the property with scope to connect to the main house and create a very substantial LIVING SPACE* and a DETACHED GARAGE.AGENTS NOTE* We do not suggest planning consent will be granted, but subject to necessary consents, the barn would make a stunning addition to the house and we therefore highlight it as potential only and prospective buyers must make their own enquiries prior to contract.Hackworthy is steeped in history, which we are advised, dates back to the DOOMSDAY BOOK, having been re modelled in the 16th and 17th centuries. The original building would have been an open hall house with a possible two storey inner room on one end and in the late 16th century, a hall stack was inserted and the hall floored over to create two storeys. In the 17th century the lower end was converted to create a high status parlour and the kitchen may have been built around this time.There are a number of significant character features which include: ORIGINAL CHAMFERED TIMBER MULLION WINDOW : CROSS PASSAGE HALLWAY. Of particular note is the sitting room, which has a plasterwork beam and a WEDDING CEILING the dominant motif of DOUBLE HEADED EAGLES with LIONS, DOGS & HERALDIC SHIELDS which are repeated in the cornice and believed to have been a wedding present made when two local families united.The large DETACHED BARN believed to have been at one time a separate kitchen with a large brick stack and integral oven and is a rare survivor of a type of building that may have been more common on a Devon farm.DIRECTIONS: Please use postcode EX6 6DT to find the property by sat nav.
