Valley House

About this property

… peacefully on the canal bank in Halberton and 250 yards from the pub, a large, detached house with fantastic views along the waterway to green fields beyond. On its own at the end of a quiet no through lane, it has a good-sized, private garden, mostly lawned with paved terrace (table/chairs), summerhouse and gate (lockable) to the waterside with your own little sitting-out area (picnic benches) alongside the towpath - a great spot to relax and watch boats, walkers, cyclists and ducks, occasionally a kingfisher, meander by. Boats can be launched at Sampford Peverell (permit required); mooring permitted outside the house.

Inside, plenty of space, good-sized rooms. Porch (freezer, larder fridge); kitchen with oak units (TV, dishwasher, microwave, larder fridge, ceramic hob/electric double oven) and breakfast table/chairs for 5/6. Beamed dining room with window looking to canal/towpath. Living room (TV/DVD/Blu-ray, iPod dock, digital piano/clavinova) with woodburner (ornamental only) and sliding patio door to terrace/garden; more big glazed doors to conservatory (table/chairs, sofa, doors to terrace). Also on the ground floor, a neat single bedroom (limited clothes-hanging space) and bathroom (suite, shower over bath).

Upstairs (stairgates), four more bedrooms – the enormous master double (5’ bed) with en suite shower-room (suite), walk-in wardrobe, sloping ceilings and two chair-beds giving flexibility for use as a family room, and a double (washbasin), both with lovely canal views; and looking to the Blackdown Hills, another double with en suite shower cubicle and washbasin, and a room with a double and single bed. Bathroom (suite). Laundry room (washing machine, tumble drier). Off half-landing, step down to games room (quarter-sized snooker table, Wii, TV/DVD) with single bed and double sofa bed (for alternative sleeping). 

Professional catering available. Damages Deposit £200. A good comfortable house for leisurely canalside living, with easy access to north and south coasts, Exmoor and Somerset; only 8 minutes from M5 and mainline station.
