Bowd Court, Bowd, Sidmouth, Devon, EX10 0ND

A truly charming Grade II Listed barn conversion, forming part of an attractive courtyard development of eleven individual barns, including the original farmhouse, set on the outskirts of Sidmouth.

Features   Formerly a working cider press, this distinctive home has been converted with exceptional care and attention to detail, retaining and showcasing many original features that give the property its unique sense of history and character.

Ground Floor   The accommodation is both generous and well presented, with exposed cider press beams, high ceilings, timber ledged and braced doors and deep window sills throughout.

The welcoming reception hall sets the tone, leading to a spacious lounge with French doors opening directly onto the garden, creating a wonderful indoor-outdoor flow.

There is also a separate dining room, ideal for entertaining, along with a well-fitted kitchen and an unusually large utility room.

A sizeable cloakroom/WC offers potential, subject to the necessary consents, to be reconfigured to create a separate study if desired.

First Floor   On the first floor, an impressive galleried landing with a part-vaulted ceiling and exposed beams provides access to the bedroom accommodation.

The principal bedroom enjoys lovely views towards Harpford Woods and Fire Beacon Hill and benefits from an en suite bathroom with a whirlpool spa bath.

Two further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, all continuing the theme of characterful beams and vaulted ceilings.

Outside   Outside, the cottage-style gardens are a particular highlight.

Thoughtfully designed and well stocked with specimen trees, shrubs and flowering plants, they provide colour and interest throughout the year while offering a high degree of privacy and seclusion.

Patios are positioned to take full advantage of the sunny south-westerly aspect, making them perfect for alfresco dining and relaxing, with delightful views across the surrounding countryside.

Wildlife and garden birds are regular visitors, enhancing the peaceful, semi-rural feel.

Further Benefits   Further benefits include oil-fired central heating, secondary glazing to some windows, carpets included, a garage and an additional designated parking space nearby.

Summary   The Cider Press would particularly appeal to those looking to downsize or seeking a quieter, more relaxed lifestyle within a friendly courtyard community, while still being conveniently located for Sidmouth and its amenities.

Thick stone walls and a sunny orientation create a naturally warm and welcoming home, and early internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this exceptional property has to offer.
