A LOCAL estate agent has described a Crediton property he is selling as having ‘an incredible bar’.

George Clover, a partner with Helmores estate agents said: “In my last 20 years of selling homes, I think this has got the best home pub I’ve ever been in.”

George was talking about Barnfel in Barnfield, Crediton, which the agency describes as “designed for year-round entertaining” and which has a well-stocked bar and games room at its heart.

It adds: “Outside, the entertaining theme continues. A substantial raised terrace extends directly from the kitchen, creating a wonderful social space.”

Built nearly 100 years ago by highly respected local builders Dart & Francis, Barnfel combines the quality and craftsmanship of a bygone era with thoughtful modern additions and improvements carried out by the current owners.

From the outside, it gives little away, but inside it reveals an incredibly versatile and surprisingly spacious home that will appeal to a wide range of buyers.

Its elevated position on the edge of the town brings some wonderful views across Crediton and beyond.

The agency adds: “Throughout the house, many original features remain, showcasing the quality of the original build. Handcrafted joinery, stained glass and traditional detailing sit comfortably alongside more recent improvements, creating a home with real personality and warmth.

“One of Barnfel's greatest strengths is its flexibility. Depending on individual needs, it can function equally well as a bungalow or as a traditional house, offering either three or four bedrooms and a variety of ways to use the space. Bedrooms can easily become offices, hobby rooms, chill-out spaces or even a home bar complete with its own beer garden. The choice really is yours.”

Barnfel has a guide price of £450,000, further details from Helmores, 111-112 High Street, Crediton, on 01363 777999, helmores.com or check out: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/89952630#/?channel=RES_BUY
