Property description

Fantastic 7 bedroomed family home offers flexible accommodation with huge garden and orchard plus attached barn.

DESCRIPTION Winsor House is an impressive 18th century Grade II listed village residence set in the mid Devon village of Bow conveniently placed for the wide range of excellent local amenities including a doctors’ surgery, primary school and small co-op supermarket.

The house offers exceptionally spacious and flexible 6/7 bedroomed period accommodation having an elegant double facade with 2 attractive bay windows, and a side vehicular driveway giving access to an adjoining two storey barn at the rear with stables, garage and parking.

The house is believed to date back to the 1700's and is typical of this period having some lovely features including double hung sash windows with internal shuttering, open fireplaces, well-proportioned light rooms with high ceilings giving a spacious feel.

There is a large garden to the rear which extends to almost 150ft, some of which still has the original cob/brick wall surrounding. Adjoining the lower end of the garden is an orchard, and the whole is bounded by a small country stream. The present owners have continued to update the property and it is presented in very good order throughout. The property benefits from oil fired central heating. 

The garden is a real feature of the property and extends to approximately 150 feet with a fantastic summer house, vegetable plots and an orchard adjacent to the main garden. Although the property is centrally located within the village, the garden is a real sanctuary with an abundance of wildlife and backing onto adjacent farmland.   To sum up, Winsor House would be ideal for a purchaser seeking a very large period house with potential to create even further accommodation (annexe/studios/bed and breakfast etc subject to the necessary permissions) together with extensive gardens and grounds. 

BOW is a parish and village on the River Yeo approximately 8 miles from Crediton, on the road to Okehampton.  A unique feature of the village is the very high raised pavement running down one side of the main street.  There is an inn, an excellent primary school, village hall and a shop. 

DIRECTIONS  If entering Bow from Crediton, proceed down through the village, whereupon Winsor House will be found on the right.
