Description
Little Venhay is a charming and historically significant countryside residence, rumored to have once been a hunting lodge of the Earl of Portsmouth. The property dates back to the 16th century, with an early 19th-century remodeling that has given it its current character. The Grade II Listed house features Gothic casement windows, a handsome stair gable, and a beautifully crafted staircase. Inside, the atmosphere is enchanting, with cobbled and stone floors, panelled doors, fireplaces, and original bread ovens. The main house has four bedrooms, including a master suite with garden views, and a family bathroom. Additionally, there is a holiday let, Orchard Cottage, and a range of outbuildings, including a studio, garage, workshop, carport, and potting shed. The grounds of Little Venhay are equally captivating, with south-facing gardens, a level pasture paddock, a meadow, lake, and wooded copse, extending to approximately 4.3 acres. Despite its rural setting, the property is conveniently located near the village of Witheridge and the market towns of South Molton and Tiverton, with easy access to Exeter, Barnstaple, Taunton, and the M5.
