SITUATION
Coombeland occupies a truly idyllic setting in a peaceful and private valley that forms part of the undulating landscape running west of the Exe Valley. The house is situated at the end of a half mile long drive surrounded by pasture and woodland. Coombeland blends into the surrounding rolling landscape that characterise this very unspoilt part of Devon.

Despite its rural setting, Coombeland is only 4 miles from the centre of Tiverton and 12 miles from the mainline railway station and motorway junction at Tiverton Parkway Station. Tiverton is a market town offering everyday amenities and is home to Blundells School.

DESCRIPTION
Coombeland is a Listed farmhouse that has evolved from its C17 origins with improvement and extension to now provide a very comfortable and characterful country house that takes full advantage of its lovely south facing position. The house is situated beside about 62 acres of predominantly broadleaf woodland and is accompanied by the adjoining 6-bedroom guest cottage..

COOMBELAND HOUSE
The Grade II listed house offers characterful accommodation that testifies to its history whilst more recent additions have made it convenient for modern life. The principal rooms run across the south facing front of the house with the large farmhouse kitchen/living room with Aga having access to a west facing terrace. The drawing room and dining room have open fires and there are window seats and quality oak panelled doors and other joinery including a plank and muntin screen. At the rear of the house there is striking double height orangery and there is plenty of practical utility areas with access from the back door.

Upstairs the generously proportioned bedrooms are well laid out around the main passage landing with a guest bedroom suite being separately accessed from its own spiral staircase.

COOMBELAND BARN
Converted from farm buildings in 2019 this 6 bedroom/ 6 bathroom accommodation provides a conveniently sited Guest cottage. The bedrooms each have their own bathroom and a central space with kitchen area and open fireplace makes an ideal entertaining space with doors that lead out to a protected courtyard.


THE LAND
The land forms a steep valley running west from the house. It forms both sides of the valley.

The woodland is served by a network of tracks giving access around the property. They are largely stocked with mature native species. Much of the woodland is designated ancient woodland and is home to many deer and other wildlife and flora.

The hunting rights over the property are vested in the Badgeworthy Land Company but at the vendors request have not been exercised for some time.
