If you are looking for a change of lifestyle and would like to live in one of the North Devon’s most beautiful and peaceful locations then Little Orchard may well be for you.
Hartland is designated as an area of outstanding natural beauty and this house certainly enjoys a prime spot being located just up from the renowned Docton Mill gardens and tea rooms and within walking distance to Spekes Valley with a 157’ waterfall attracting many visitors travelling to see this stunning site. Within a short 10 minute walk you can access the South West Coast Path with its miles of dramatic coastline and natural waterfalls. A stunning 45 minute coastal walk will bring you to the famous Hartland Quay, where many TV productions have been filmed including Rebecca, The Night Manager and Top Gear. A short 20 minute walk is where a scene from Game of Thrones House of Dragons was filmed right on the coastal path.
This thoroughly upgraded house occupies a lovely level plot which is approximately a third of an acre in size. It offers plentiful driveway parking for around 5 vehicles, a beautiful lawned garden with large patio and a particularly spacious Workshop.
The house, itself, has great kerb appeal and is accessed via a large covered Entrance Porch. A wide central Hall leads to all the principal Ground Floor rooms which include a spacious Lounge with wood burning stove and access to the rear garden via sliding doors. This room opens to the Kitchen which has a large central island, a large Flavel oven included in the sale, a built-in dishwasher and space for an American style fridge / freezer. The Kitchen has a wide range of units and quality granite worktops. There is a useful Utility Room and a Shower Room off the Kitchen. The Ground Floor also has a spacious double Bedroom to the front, a versatile space currently serving as a gym, a large Dining Room overlooking the garden and a further contemporary Shower Room.
Upstairs, there are 4 further Bedrooms with the Main Bedroom being beautifully presented and featuring a range of quality fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 2 is also an impressive double room and is dual aspect allowing for an abundance of natural light. There are 2 single Bedrooms, perfect for kids and a gorgeous Bathroom with his 'n' hers wash hand basins.
The rear garden is sure to be a real treasure. It is primarily lawned with fence borders and is completely private by way of the surrounding trees and bushes. A newly laid patio provides a wonderful space to relax and extends around the side of the house providing a great area for summer parties and barbecues. The scope of the garden really needs to be seen to be appreciated. To the side of the house is an impressive corrugated Workshop measuring 29’6 x 18’2 (9m x 5.54m). This will make a great hobby room or workshop as it stands but could potentially be converted into something such as an Airbnb dwelling, subject to any necessary consents.
This truly is a special home in an idyllic location and we would highly recommend viewing it as soon as possible to avoid missing out on this opportunity.Hartland is a pleasant village described as ‘the most welcoming community’ in North Devon. It really is a lovely place to live and visit.
The village itself has quite a few useful shops, pubs and churches and a primary school too. The highlights of the larger area of Hartland includes the dramatic Hartland Quay with its craggy black rocks and friendly hotel. The South West Coast path takes in Hartland Point and Speke’s Mill Mouth. There’s the lighthouse, Hartland Abbey and an iconic radar station in the area too, so it’s quite a spot to explore. It’s rural Devon at its very best.
Hartland is within short driving distance of the Atlantic Highway (A39) that is the main feeder route across the region leading to Wadebridge in Cornwall to the south-west and to the M5 by Tiverton in the east. A bus service provides access to North Devon’s ‘capital’, Barnstaple. Bus users can also reach Westward Ho!, Bideford, Braunton, Appledore, Croyde and Ilfracombe.<br/><br/><b>Directions</b><br/>From Bideford Quay, proceed in the direction of Northam to the A39 Heywood Road roundabout. Turn left in the direction of Bude. Drive for approximately 9 miles (past the first turning for the B3248) and after 1.8 miles, take the next right hand turning onto the B3248 to Hartland. After 1 mile, turn left signposted Philham / Elmscott. Continue for approximately 1.6 miles passing both Philham and Greenlake Cross and follow the brown signs to Docton Mill. Descend down a hill and at the bottom turn right. Proceed up the hill to where Little Orchard will be found towards the top of the hill on your left hand side clearly displaying a nameplate.
