This expansive property occupies a tranquil, rural setting in the picturesque South Devon countryside, accessed via a private driveway at the end of a no-through lane. The estate encompasses a charming period farmhouse along with an extensive courtyard that houses various barns and outbuildings, all surrounded by generously sized paddocks and areas of natural woodland.
The farmhouse offers substantial living space suited for families or multi-generational arrangements. On the ground floor, you will find a study, sitting room, and dining room featuring a large stone fireplace. The kitchen and utility room are conveniently located at the rear. Upstairs, two of the six bedrooms share a ‘Jack and Jill’ en-suite bathroom—one bedroom even includes its own balcony—while an additional two bedrooms and another bathroom complete this level.
Connected to the main house via a porch is an annexe created from part of the barns. This space includes a kitchen/living area on the ground floor, two bedrooms with accompanying shower rooms above, and a spacious family room with French doors that open to a terrace area—ideal for entertaining or enjoying outdoor views.
The property is further enhanced by its well-structured courtyard of barns which provide ample storage and garaging options. A separate large stone barn with stable fittings offers potential for equestrian use alongside an outdoor riding arena situated behind the buildings.
Surrounding the farmhouse are expansive lawned gardens, while the land is ring-fenced by its own diverse selection of pasture paddocks and woodlands, ensuring both privacy and potential for various outdoor activities or agricultural pursuits.
