Cullompton Hill, Bradninch

Positioned in the heart of the small Mid Devon town of Bradninch, this spacious home exudes charm and character across its three floors. A house that was once two properties, with the core dating back to the early 19th century and very possibly earlier, later additions have boosted the space to total over 3000 sq ft and provide six bedrooms, four reception rooms and three bathrooms!

Entering through the front door and into the hallway, with its panelled walls and striking patterned floor, the stairs face you and a door either side take you through to two of the reception rooms. On the left, the cosy sitting room and on the right, the dual aspect dining room. From the dining room you can pass on into the kitchen and back into the hallway. The kitchen has a door opening up on to the front garden and driveway, ensuring handy day to day access into the property.

From the hallway, the downstairs continues through into the utility room and the two further reception rooms, one opening up into the back garden through double doors and the other an ambient drawing room, currently magnificently filled with hundreds of books and a perfect place to retreat to on a cold evening.

Upstairs to the first floor, you find the five bedrooms and sizeable bath and shower rooms. The main bedroom is impressive — vast both in terms of its floor space but also tall ceiling and large windows. It is believed this room has an interesting history, rumoured to have been used as a court room and dance hall in years gone by. The top floor provides a perfect set up for guests, with a spacious bedroom and its own shower room.

Beyond the interiors, the property offers a delightful and picturesque walled garden, providing a private oasis for outdoor enjoyment and relaxation. The garden space, complete with stunning cobbled pathways, seating areas, lawn, apple and walnut trees and a raised ‘secret garden’ presents an opportunity for the green-fingered to cultivate a range of flora or to create a tranquil retreat for al fresco dining and entertaining.

Bradninch is a small town located to the south of Cullompton and is handily situated with easy access to the M5 and train stations at Tiverton Parkway, Whimple or Cranbrook. It boasts a convenience store, a brand new artisan cafe, two pubs, the Ofsted rated ‘outstanding’ Duchy primary school, a hair salon and a successful cricket club.
