This unique opportunity presents a charming period farmhouse, nestled in the pristine Devon countryside and spanning approximately 185 sq. metres. With its appealing rendered facades and a plethora of original features, such as exposed timber beams and distinctive fireplaces, this home exudes character across two spacious levels.
Marshford Farm is set in a secluded location at the end of a tranquil lane, accessible via a newly constructed bridge or an original ford crossing, enhancing the sense of privacy and arrival. The beautiful surrounding landscape offers an ideal backdrop for those desiring a lifestyle that embraces peace and nature.
The property is further enhanced by traditional outbuildings that offer significant scope for conversion or development, pending relevant consents. While the farmhouse does require refurbishment to reach its full potential, it provides an exceptional canvas to craft a bespoke country residence brimming with charm.
Set within formal gardens and a courtyard area totalling around 1.4 acres, the property also benefits from approximately 3.7 acres of well-maintained paddock land—perfect for equestrian activities or smallholding ventures. Additional agricultural buildings may be available separately.
Internally, the ground floor includes two generous reception rooms: an inviting sitting area and a sunlit dining room featuring impressive inglenook fireplaces with wood-burning stoves that create warm living spaces. A versatile study gives access to an adjoining outbuilding, presenting clear potential for extending the main house (subject to planning approval). The kitchen boasts traditional wooden cabinetry and an oil-fired Aga alongside informal dining space; a utility room adds practical convenience, complemented by a cloakroom.
Upstairs are four sizeable bedrooms—one being a principal suite with en suite shower room and decorative fireplace—alongside a family bathroom showcasing a freestanding roll-top bath. From various windows on this level, residents can enjoy picturesque views of the surrounding countryside.
This captivating farmhouse represents an excellent opportunity for anyone wishing to embrace the quintessential Devon lifestyle while retaining privacy and character—and also serves as an inviting investment with significant renovation potential.
