The houses in South Molton
South Molton is a market town, and it looks like one. Georgian and Victorian townhouses around the square and Broad Street, many with two or three steps straight up off the pavement to the front door and a narrow hall behind it. Out towards Exmoor there are solid-wall cottages and farmhouses with thick walls, deep window reveals and stairs that were built for people who were used to them. Both types are worth adapting rather than leaving, and both need someone who has been in houses like them before.
The work we take on here
Every one of these is arranged and managed by us, and inspected before it is signed off.
Steps up to the front door
A handrail on the right side, and a light that comes on by itself. On a Georgian frontage that usually matters more than a ramp, which often will not fit.
Cottage and farmhouse stairs
Steep, and often turning. We look at what a rail can do first, and only talk about a stairlift where the run will genuinely take one.
Bathrooms in solid-wall houses
Thick walls change what is possible and what it costs. We tell you that before anyone starts pricing a wet room.
Outbuildings and yards
Uneven yards, a slippery path to the shed or the log store, and outside lighting that stopped working years ago.
Villages we cover around South Molton
North Molton, Bishops Nympton, Chittlehampton, Filleigh, Molland, Mariansleigh, George Nympton and the farms along the Exmoor edge.
Getting out to you
The lanes out towards Exmoor take time, and we plan for that rather than turning up late. Tell us where you are and we will agree a time that works.
