Ford Wood presents an intriguing opportunity for those seeking a renovation project in a picturesque setting bordering Dartmoor. This property consists of a traditional two-storey cottage complemented by a 20th-century bungalow-style extension, all situated on approximately 3.25 acres of varied terrain that includes paddocks, gardens, and woodland. While the property is currently configured with three bedrooms and two reception rooms, it requires comprehensive modernisation to unlock its full potential. Recent improvements include a new roof and updated plumbing with plastic pipes, yet further work is needed to transform this space into a contemporary residence. The vast outdoor areas offer possibilities for extending the living space or exploring redevelopment options, subject to necessary permissions.
The location strikes a balance between rural tranquillity and convenient access to local amenities found in the nearby villages of Sticklepath and South Zeal. The charming town of Okehampton is just a short drive away, providing essential services and transport links via rail to Exeter and London. With direct access to excellent walking and riding routes along the bridleway adjacent to the property, this site holds significant appeal for those who appreciate nature while being within reach of urban conveniences.
