Elston Barton is a beautiful 16th century Grade II* listed detached thatched farmhouse located in the heart of the Devonshire countryside in a peaceful, secluded yet very accessible setting. The village of Copplestone is just under a mile to the west, old market town of Crediton 3 miles to the East, and Cathedral city of Exeter about 10 miles to the south-east.

The house is set in gardens and grounds which in all total about 3.5 acres.  There is a large level formal front garden, a raised side garden leading into a paddock of about 2.6 acres which enjoys stunning rural views to Dartmoor.   To the rear of the house are 2 large enclosed walled courtyards, and a substantial range of traditional cob/stone farm buildings.  These barns have tremendous potential to convert into further accommodation, or workshops etc (subject to the necessary permissions), plus a modern stable block and 2 garages.

Elston Barton is believed to date back to the 16th century, and contains hugely spacious 6 bedroomed period accommodation with much character.  Notable features include exposed ceiling beams (with part exposed cruck trusses in some of the bedrooms), a stone/granite inglenook fireplace with bread oven, deep window sills, and some exposed wooden floors.  Parts of the accommodation would benefit from certain modernisation works.

COPPLESTONE is a popular Mid Devon village adjoining the A377 Exeter / Barnstaple road about 4 miles west of Crediton.  The Cathedral City of Exeter is about 12 miles to the south east with excellent communications including the M5 motorway, main line rail stations and its airport to the east of the city.  To the south west and the north east of Copplestone are the National Parks of Dartmoor and Exmoor, renowned for their spectacular scenery with excellent facilities for walking, riding and fishing.  The village has an old Inn, post office / general stores and a modern primary school.  There is a bus service through the village to Exeter via Crediton.  The village also has a railway station with trains every hour to both Barnstaple and Exeter.  In the village stands an ancient granite cross which is mentioned in a Saxon charter of the year 974.  This cross is virtually in the centre of the County.
