This deceptively spacious semi-detached house is located in the heart of the beautiful mid Devon countryside, in an area surrounded by open farmland, and well away from main roads. It offers well presented 3 double bedroomed accommodation with a modern fitted kitchen, modern bath/shower room, and spacious living areas with very attractive exposed natural wood flooring and tiling. The gardens are large, mainly lawned and encompass the property. There is ample off road parking plus an adjoining garage.
The approach to the house is lovely – initially the long driveway passes through open meadowland, and then through Hole Farm itself - which is a working farm (as such there may be farm machinery and animals in the vicinity). Beyond the farm, a private 5-bar gate leads into leads into the garden and parking for Hole Cottage.
The house benefits from oil fired central heating, and uPVC double glazing throughout.

NORTH TAWTON is a small town, built alongside the banks of ‘The River Taw’. Settlements in and around the ‘Taw Valley’ experience a haven-like quality, between the often steep-edged hillsides – a contrast to other areas of more open farmland. The town has a selection of shops, a primary school, ‘The Copper Key’ pub and an undeniably pretty square. For more choice, by way of facilities the larger town of Okehampton is only 5 miles up the road – where access to the A30 dual carriageway (a link to the City of Exeter) can also be found. North Tawton, as with many Devon towns has a prime medieval church, with a west spire adorned with oak shingles. The town is also known for its superb creamery. The Taw Valley Creamery (est 1974) produces award -winning cheeses, revered locally and nationally. For a brief period North Tawton was once home to the poet laureate Ted Hughes and his wife Sylvia Plath. Hughes is often cited as one of the greatest poets of the 20th Century and Plath was praised for her novel ‘The Bell Jar’. Unsurprisingly Devon has often been a muse for creatives.
