Description

DESCRIPTION Nestled within the small and picturesque hamlet of Easton, just a short distance from Bigbury and its renowned sandy beaches, Glebe Barn is a charming unlisted stone barn conversion offering character, space and a wonderfully rural setting. This attractive semi detached home is arranged in a reverse level design, thoughtfully configured to make the most of its surroundings. The property is entered via an inviting entrance hall leading through to a well appointed kitchen and a spacious living/dining room, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. A versatile snug, which could also serve as a fourth bedroom, sits alongside a useful utility room and a modern shower room on this level. On the lower ground floor, a generous hallway with patio doors opens directly onto a delightful, enclosed walled courtyard garden, perfect for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the peace and privacy. This floor also accommodates three comfortable bedrooms and a family bathroom, providing ample space for family life or visiting guests. Outside, Glebe Barn continues to impress. There is private parking and a detached single garage, complete with an adjoining workshop fitted with power and light, ideal for hobbies or additional storage. The property is set within a generous plot featuring two large lawned gardens, offering plenty of space for children to play, keen gardeners to cultivate vegetables, or simply to relax and take in the tranquil surroundings. Extending to approximately 5.5 acres, the land is a real highlight. Comprising two gently sloping fields, with steeper areas, the grounds include a stream at the lower boundary and a former pond that could be reinstated. An old timber stable block provides three stables, making the property well suited to equestrian use, smallholding, or recreational pursuits. From the property there is a lovely walk down the lane to the bridge, from where there is a footpath either side of the stream leading down to the Avon Estuary. With far reaching views across the surrounding countryside from the land, Glebe Barn offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home that combines rural charm, versatility and lifestyle potential in an idyllic South Hams setting.
