Gated Home
Concealed behind imposing black gates and a tall boundary wall, this residence enjoys a serene sense of seclusion and privacy. Softened by well-tended planting, while Gothic-inspired finials, a stone-built barn conversion, and a stately front door hint at the craftsmanship within.
A sweeping driveway provides parking for up to four cars, with additional parking available adjacent to the barn. Well-trodden paths wind their way throughout the corner plot, leading to wild gardens and sunlit vegetable patches, setting the tone for what lies ahead: A masterclass in timeless design and style.
Inside, the home unfolds over four substantial levels, each space embracing a warm, contemporary sensibility. The main reception room is bathed in natural light with dual aspect views. This wonderfully social room is defined by 18th-century window shutters, original wooden flooring, topped with a tall ceiling showcasing detailed rose and cornice.
A welcoming and beautifully appointed kitchen adjoins the breakfast room. Painted in warm off-whites that enhance the natural light, the space feels calm and functional, while a Belfast sink and wooden worktops lend character and charm to both food preparation and casual dining.
Upstairs, the four bedrooms are spread across two floors, all of which have been updated with a sense of refinement, offering individual views that create timeless charm and a peaceful retreat in the evenings.
Below the main house, a traditional cellar offers cool, dry storage. A reminder of the home's historic charm and practicality.
The Barn:
Imagine mornings filled with light streaming through vaulted ceilings, dancing across the original timber beams. From the mezzanine, you can sip your first coffee of the day as the world outside slowly stirs. The same serenity that welcomes stillness can just as easily spark energy, perfect for a revitalising yoga session or an invigorating workout; the possibilities of this versatile conversion are truly endless. As teens grow older or dependent relatives require their own retreat, this already immaculate addition to the family home can be used as a self-contained ancillary barn ”Granny Annexe”.Benefiting from private parking and patio area.
Gardens:
Being an elevated corner plot, The Homestead benefits from a high degree of privacy throughout the day. Here, you will find a collection of secret seating areas for alfresco dining, including a large vegetable patch and wild garden, allowing younger members of the family to let their imagination run wild in the safety of their own back garden, whilst parents and visiting guests can relax on the lawn or get busy planting bulbs for spring.
Summary:
This unique home not only sits in the heart of Bickington village but also captures the heart of anyone walking over its threshold. Providing a haven for growing families, encapsulating a natural blend of modern convenience and historical charm. Perfect for those looking to upgrade locally or move into a faultless home in North Devon.
