Gulliford House:

A charming, detached house which is believed to have medieval origins, but was mainly established in the 17th century. The property has quintessential external aesthetics with rendered elevations set beneath a Devon thatch with brow windows. The property has been under the same ownership for almost 50 years and has retained a great deal of character and period features throughout. The current owners undertook a comprehensive program of refurbishment and restoration in 1985 whilst being sympathetic and mindful to the Grade II listed heritage of the building.

The house affords stunning countryside views up to Haldon Obelisk and across the open countryside. It has remarkably open and spacious accommodation for a property of this age and type. The house enjoys formal, level gardens that are bordered by a lovely stone wall (also Grade II listed) providing a high degree of privacy, shelter and a southerly orientation.
