This stunning Georgian home, known as The Old Rectory, is nestled in a private woodland setting on the 4,600-acre Clovelly Estate, which has been owned by only three families since the 13th century. The property was once the childhood home of renowned Victorian novelist Charles Kingsley, who drew inspiration from its peaceful surroundings. The house boasts a classic four-square layout, with high ceilings, tall sash windows, and original architectural fittings, including Victorian fireplaces and panel doors. The interior features a generous kitchen with an AGA, three reception rooms, and eight double bedrooms, including five with coastal views. The property also includes a games room, lift, and attached garage. The beautiful gardens and grounds, which amount to just under one and three quarters acres, feature level lawns, mature woodland, and a timber summer house. Located within the North Devon Coast AONB, The Old Rectory is just half a mile from the picturesque harbour village of Clovelly and within easy reach of Bideford, Barnstaple, and Exeter.
