A stunning detached farmhouse in immaculate order throughout in a highly sought after and convenient tucked away location. Benefiting from 4 reception rooms and 4 bedrooms (1 en-suite) with annexe potential. Double garage, extensive garden and parking. Grade II Listed 17th Century Farmhouse. No onward chain. EPC Band D.
Situation - The property enjoys the best of both worlds, being set in its own grounds and quietly tucked away, yet within easy driving distance of local amenities and the coast. Old Tythesford Farmhouse is situated in a private and secluded setting in the small and sought after hamlet of Ford where properties rarely become available for sale. The hamlet of Ford is located approximately 4.5 miles away from the port and market town of Bideford and within easy access of the safe and sandy beach at Westward Ho! approximately 5 miles away and the rugged North Devon coastline, affording fantastic walks less than 2 miles away. The popular village of Abbotsham is approximately 1.5 miles away and benefits from a church, local thatched village inn and a well-renowned primary school. There is also access via Greencliff to the South West Coast Path, which offers excellent walks with stunning vistas of the rugged North Devon coastline. The retail park, Affinity, is just a short 2 mile drive away and has an excellent range of well known branded shops and factory outlets with supermarkets adjacent. Bideford town centre sits on the banks of the River Torridge offering a range of amenities including various shops, banks, butchers, bakeries, places of worship, pubs and restaurants, schooling for all ages (public and private) and supermarkets.
The regional centre of Barnstaple is approximately 12.5 miles away and offers all the areas main business, shopping and commercial venues. There is also a train station connecting to Exeter and road links to the A361 and M5 motorway at junction 27.
Description - Properties of this calibre and location rarely become available to the open market and must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated. The property is a Grade II Listed, 17th Century farmhouse that has been the subject of considerable improvement and remodelled in recent years to create a comfortable, modern home.
The generous accommodation has a wealth of character features including exposed timbers, inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove, Aga stove, stained glass windows, oak windows and exposed slate. The accommodation is also versatile and could be utilised in a variety of ways. At present, there are four reception rooms, four bedrooms (one en-suite) and a study / office. However, the property could easily be adapted as a three reception room, four bedroom (one en-suite) property with a one bedroom annexe/holiday cottage, subject to any necessary planning permissions.
The property does not disappoint on the outside either;
Please note due to the age of the property there is restricted head height in many areas.
Outside - The farmhouse is approached through a five-bar gate to a private driveway that provides ample off-road parking and turning for several vehicles. There is plenty of space for a motorhome/ horse trailer, if required.
To the front of the property is a pretty lawned garden with raised stone flower beds filled with a wealth of flowering shrubs.
To the rear of the farmhouse, is a good size patio area with adjoining decorative pond. The rear, sunny garden enjoys complete privacy and lovely views over the stream and tree bordered, large lawn garden.
Garage/Annexe Potential - The property has a detached double garage and a workshop offering potential to be converted into a home office or annexe, subject to any necessary planning permissions.
The layout of the accommodation and approximate dimensions are more clearly shown on the accompanying floorplan.
Services - Mains water, electricity and drainage. Oil fired central heating.
Directions - From the A39/Heywood Road roundabout following signs to Bude, continue along this road until reaching the next roundabout and continue to follow signs to Bude. Then take the first left hand turning signposted towards Ford. Follow this road until it leads into the hamlet of Ford where the property can be found on the right hand side with nameplate clearly displayed.
