4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Sinai Hill, Lynton EX35

Description

About the property

A former Victorian chapel dating back to circa 1845 which presents a slate roof and white rendered elevations. The property was ingeniously transformed into a residence in 2013, and it has numerous environmentally beneficial elements, such as air source heating, triple glazing, heat recovery ventilation throughout the entire house, and an extremely well-insulated roof. Highlights include the magnificent living room on the second floor, which has a vaulted ceiling, arched and circular architecture, a log fire, and picture windows that let in plenty of natural light and provide views of the surrounding coast and countryside.

There is a large sun terrace with a power outlet and outdoor lights accessible via a gated path. The covered parking area is located beneath the terrace; there is space for one car, a cold water connection and automated lighting are connected, and at the rear of the parking area is an enclosed storage area/workshop.

The area


The property is within easy walking distance of local amenities, including a good selection of restaurants, bars, cafés, shops, small supermarkets, a library, a primary school, and places of worship, along with a regular bus service.

Lynton is twinned with the coastal village of Lynmouth, set on the banks of the River Lyn overlooking the sea and reached by a cliffside railway. The South West Coast Path passes directly through Lynton & Lynmouth and is England's longest waymarked long-distance footpath and a National Trail. It stretches for 630 miles (1,014 km), running from Minehead in Somerset, along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall, to Poole Harbour in Dorset. 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 a 40-minute drive and eventually joins the M5 motorway network at Junction 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. There are excellent state and private schools within the area. The Valley of Rocks is within level walking distance (passing the extraordinary location of the cricket ground), offering access to many miles of coastal walks and stunning unspoilt countryside, which the surrounding Exmoor National Park has to offer. A trip to Dunkery Beacon, Exmoor's highest point has incredible views and a picnic at Landacre Bridge or visit to Withypool tea rooms would be well worth the journey.
