Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached to rent in Sidmouth, EX10 :

A substantial four bedroom detached Grade II Listed character house set in a rural location, with substantial grounds and countryside views. To let unfurnished for twelve months initially, and long term.



Horestones Farmhouse is a detached house which was built in 1587. The property offers spacious accommodation and has extensive grounds and gardens to three sides. The property enjoys superb views in a southerly and south westerly direction, and is within close proximity of Sidmouth, as well the villages of Otterton and Newton Poppleford.


The property has many character features typical of the age, with generous size rooms, and the property is heated with oil fired central heating, a large fireplace with a wood burner to the sitting room, in the dining room there is an open fire and the kitchen has an oil fired Heritage Aga and an open fireplace. To the first floor there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms and the windows throughout are timber framed and single glazed. The property was decorated internally throughout approximately twelve months ago to a neutral colour scheme and replacement floor coverings were installed at that time. To the exterior there is a gated entrance which leads to a gravelled parking area for a number of vehicles. Adjoining this area is a wild pond and vehicular access to a fenced paddock, which is available by separate negotiation. At the front of the house is an enclosed walled patio garden, which has a pleasant outlook over the countryside. At the rear is a paved area, two outbuildings and paved footpaths which lead to further areas of well stocked gardens. Beyond the gardens is an elevated area of land which could be used as further paddock and an area previously used for chickens.


The property is wonderfully unique and will appeal to both tenants requiring shorter term lets and indeed, a long term family home.
