About this property

A Rare Lifestyle and Investment Opportunity in the Heart of Desirable Kennford Village.

Occupying a prime position within the sought-after village of Kennford, just south of Exeter, this exceptional property presents a rare opportunity offering outstanding flexibility, character and income potential.

Perfectly positioned for convenient access to the A38 and M5, the property enjoys the best of both worlds: excellent connectivity alongside the tranquillity and charm of rural Devon. The spectacular landscapes of Dartmoor National Park lie just a short drive to the west, while the renowned South Devon coastline, with its beautiful beaches, picturesque harbours and popular destinations including Dawlish, Teignmouth, Torquay and Torbay, is easily accessible. This enviable location attracts both residents and visitors throughout the year.

The property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial village residence with an established commercial element, offering both lifestyle and income potential. The former village Post Office is currently utilised as an attractive furniture showroom, providing a versatile commercial space that could suit a variety of business interests, subject to any necessary consents.

Further enhancing the appeal are two beautifully appointed boutique en-suite guest suites, previously operated as highly successful Airbnb accommodation, generating attractive supplementary income. Their independent nature lends itself perfectly to continued holiday letting, guest accommodation or alternative residential uses.

The principal cottage offers spacious and characterful accommodation arranged over two floors. On the ground floor, a welcoming sitting room leads through to an impressive kitchen and dining room, creating a wonderful heart of the home for both everyday family living and entertaining. A family bathroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

To the rear, the property enjoys a delightful and private garden, providing an idyllic setting for outdoor dining, relaxation and entertaining, together with a sheltered courtyard offering a charming and secluded retreat.

Upstairs, a generous landing leads to an elegant and substantial first-floor lounge, a wonderful space in which to relax and enjoy views over the surrounding area. The first floor also comprises large double bedrooms, all generously proportioned, together with a well-appointed family bathroom.

Combining a substantial residence, successful guest accommodation and flexible commercial premises, this exceptional property offers a unique opportunity for those seeking a distinctive home with lifestyle and business potential in equal measure.

Please note that an AML fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead.
