SITUATION
Longmead enjoys a unique location within easy walking distance of the heart of Lynton, and also Valley of Rocks is equidistant on foot and offers access to many miles of coastal walks and stunning unspoilt countryside, which the surrounding Exmoor National Park has to offer. Lynton is twinned with Lynmouth, and together they offer a good range of pubs and restaurants, shops, small supermarkets and tea rooms. There is even a cinema. Lynmouth is set on the banks of the River Lyn, overlooks the sea and can be reached by a cliffside railway. More extensive shopping facilities and amenities are available at the larger town of Ilfracombe – about half an hour, and the regional centre of Barnstaple about 45 minutes. The world-renowned surfing beaches at Woolacombe, Putsborough, Saunton (also with Championship Golf Course) and Croyde are also about 45 minutes by car. The North Devon Link Road (A361) is about 40 minutes’ drive and eventually joins the M5 Motorway network at Jct.27, where Tiverton Parkway offers a fast service of trains to London Paddington in just over 2 hours. The nearest international airports are at Bristol and Exeter.
DESCRIPTION
10 Longmead comprises a large attached Edwardian residence, circa 1914, which presents part stone and part rendered and part timbered elevations beneath a slate roof. Internally the property boasts many original and unusual features in the Arts & Crafts style, which include bow windows with window seats, canopied fireplace with seating. One room is wood panelled. There are original fitted cupboards. The evidence of maid bells reminds us of a bygone era. This is a rare opportunity to sympathetically restore this grand period home to its former glory, and at the same time stamp ones’ mark on it. The generous, spacious and versatile accommodation may suit those buyers seeking a property suitable for dual occupation, or as a home with income. There is evidence on the Second Floor that one of the rooms – currently described as a bedroom – was formerly a kitchen and that the Top Floor could potentially become a flat, although this would need to be internally accessed. The house is complemented by the well-established secluded garden, which displays many specimen shrubs and trees. There is also a garage and additional parking – a rare commodity in Lynton.
