BARLE House is a beautifully built three-bedroom property which is on the market for £650,000.

Sitting on the outskirts of Withypool in the heart of Exmoor National Park, this stone crafted property, believed to date back to 1860, is surrounded by beautiful scenery, and boasts delightful gardens that include a large greenhouse and vegetable patch.

This house has some lovely features throughout, including exposed stone walls, fireplaces with wood burning stoves, wooden doors and window shutters, which all combine to create an incredibly cosy environment to live in.

The house has many points of entry, with the main entrance leading directly into the living room, where the cosiness of this property can immediately be felt.

The combination of stone walling and floors, alongside the wooden bannister on the stairs, creates a great sense of comfort after coming home after a long day at work.

The living room comes with a fireplace that is perfect for keeping yourself warm in the colder months of the year, maintaining a charming design that emphasises this property’s character and history.

Moving through the living room, a utility room is tucked away in the corner, through which one of the two ground floor bathrooms can be accessed.

Heading a little further around is the kitchen, where the interior design is changed with the use of darker wooden panelling on the walls. Despite being aesthetically different to the living room, the coziness is certainly maintained through the use of the colour and the types of surface and appliances used.

There is plenty of space to work with in the kitchen, benefitting those who might need to prepare meals for family and friends. The appliances are high quality, including the use of wood burning stoves, ensuring that food is cooked to perfection with a smokier flavour for those who prefer it.

The dining room is next to the kitchen, and there is another stylistic difference that can be immediately noticed upon entering the room on account of the red finish that characterises this room.

There are large panelled glass windows and door, providing a great view through which you can enjoy a meal, as well as easy access to the front porch, making it easy to enjoy the sun in the height of summer.

Coming back to the main entrance, to the living room’s left is the study room. The exposed stone, fireplace, and design gives privacy to the occupants of this room and makes it a great place to conduct work from home. Otherwise, it creates a peaceful moment for studying or reading.

Next to the study hall is the sitting room, which has the flexibility to operate as a fourth bedroom if needed for a slightly larger family. Otherwise this space would be ideal to accommodate friends who may be staying for the night.

This room is flexible thanks to its minimalism, with the main features being more large windows to look out into the beautiful surroundings, as well as another fireplace that further adds to this property’s charm. Large couches with blankets, alongside a TV, would make this room ideal for a movie night.

There is also a bathroom adjacent to this room with its own shower facilities, which acts as an en-suite should this be used as an additional bedroom.

The three bedrooms in this house can be found as you come up the stairs to the top floor. Bedroom one is to the immediate left of the stairs and is the largest in the property, though only just.

There is plenty of room to make this bedroom your own, with any double or king sized beds being able to fit comfortably for any couples wanting to share the room. There is also space to fit a TV or gadgets and toys for younger family members.

The spaciousness continues throughout each of the bedrooms. There is never any risk of anyone waking up feeling cramped. One of the bedrooms contains a decking, which is perfect for those who wish to wake up each morning to appreciate the Exmoor countryside.

Alongside the main house, there are also a couple of outbuildings that come with the purchase of this property. One of these includes a handsome oak-framed carport, providing sheltered parking and storage within a characterful design.

There is also a combined studio and garage space, which can be used as a versatile space for a variety of hobbies and interests, such as a yoga studio, a home office, art room, workshop, or even as a guest suite.

Set within its own delightful and well-maintained gardens, the property offers a sanctuary of peace and natural beauty.

Outside, the south facing walled courtyard gardens provide a most attractive and secluded setting. Just to the side of the property there is an area ideal for growing vegetables with a large greenhouse with raised beds.

The gardens feature a variety of mature plants, shrubs, and trees, creating an inviting outdoor space for relaxation, entertaining, or simply enjoying the serene surroundings.

Whether it’s sunny mornings on the patio or quiet evenings among the greenery, the gardens provide a perfect backdrop to rural living.
