Down Farm is a historically rich Grade II Listed farmhouse, set against the stunning backdrop of the Exe Valley in Mid Devon. Originally constructed in the early 16th century, the property boasts many original features such as exposed timber beams, which add to its unique charm. It offers a significant opportunity for modernization and refurbishment, with both planning permission and listed building consent already granted for further works. This could appeal to those looking to enhance the property's character while increasing its value.
The interior comprises a spacious central drawing room that serves as a focal point for entertaining, enhanced by two distinct seating areas equipped with attractive fireplaces. A comfortable family room and additional sitting room with a woodburner provide ample relaxation space. The kitchen, designed with farmhouse-style units and complemented by an Aga, promotes a sociable environment ideal for family gatherings.
Upstairs, five well-presented bedrooms include an impressive principal suite with its own private staircase and en suite bathroom offering modern comforts alongside period charm. The detached cabin currently serves as a holiday let, providing extra income potential or guest accommodation.
The extensive grounds feature substantial patios suitable for outdoor entertaining and over 11 acres of gardens and meadows, including two large barns ripe for conversion into liveable spaces or additional storage. This property not only provides picturesque living but also presents various avenues for investment through renovation projects, particularly given its strategic location near Tiverton’s amenities and excellent transport links.
Surrounded by natural beauty and local attractions from beaches to national parks, Down Farm embodies both tranquility and opportunity in one of Devon's most sought-after areas.
