Greyfriars is a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached residence, originally a barn and now thoughtfully transformed into a spacious and elegant coastal home, perfectly positioned within the sought-after village of Combe Martin. The property is full of charm and character and now functions perfectly as a spacious and highly versatile home, while also offering excellent potential for dual living or multi-generational use.

The ground floor is centred around a generous open-plan reception room where large windows flood the space with natural light and a striking brick fireplace provides a warm focal point. To the rear of the property, the kitchen is positioned within a bright conservatory-style room, creating a wonderful living space that enjoys views over the garden and a strong connection to the outdoors - ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The layout is both flexible and practical, making the property equally well suited as one substantial family home or as a home with separate living accommodation if desired.

The principal bedroom is a particularly appealing feature, benefiting from direct access to the garden alongside a walk-in wardrobe and a stylish en-suite shower room with a level walk-in shower and heated towel rail. There are three further spacious double bedrooms, together with a modern family bathroom finished to a high standard.

Externally, the rear garden is a standout feature. The entire property is bordered by an old stone wall, creating a private and tranquil oasis surrounded by greenery and mature planting. This peaceful setting, combined with a double garage and excellent parking, further enhances the appeal of this charming and highly versatile home.
