Description

This charming Grade II listed farmhouse, set within the scenic Teign Valley, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Reed Farmhouse, a late medieval structure featuring traditional cob construction on stone footings beneath a slate roof, retains many original details despite some modern alterations made in the 1970s. In 2019, planning and listed building consents were granted to enhance the property further, allowing for window replacements and kitchen extension modifications that could be executed with minimal disruption. The interior boasts spacious living areas ideal for family life and entertaining. The inviting entrance opens into an oak panelled hall leading to a dual-aspect sitting room with an inglenook fireplace equipped with a wood-burning stove. Adjacent is a versatile study with French doors leading to the garden. The dining area also features a fireplace and connects seamlessly to a generously sized kitchen/breakfast room, complete with traditional range cooker and picturesque views of the Teign Valley. Upstairs hosts five characterful bedrooms served by a family bathroom and separate WC. Planning approvals from 2019 allow for enhancements to the bathrooms and an ensuite addition in one of the bedrooms, creating additional value for future occupants. The property is accompanied by various outbuildings suitable for agricultural or workshop use, offering significant potential for conversion (subject to planning permission). The surrounding land spans approximately 8.29 acres, previously used for grazing but equally capable of supporting conservation efforts or leisure activities. Located conveniently near Christow village amenities and nestled within Dartmoor National Park, this property not only offers serene rural living but also accessibility to vibrant community facilities and outdoor pursuits.
