This versatile smallholding is set in a picturesque rural Devon with expansive countryside views, no near neighbours and boasts approx. 4.7 acres of gardens and pasture.
The generously proportioned, detached bungalow boasts a spacious living/ dining room with views over the land and gardens, a light and airy kitchen, large conservatory and four double bedrooms, including a master with an en-suite bathroom.
Externally the property offers a number of different opportunities with a large outbuilding, currently used as a workshop and machinery store that may have planning permission in the future, subject to the usual planning consents. The gently sloping paddock is stock fenced and is perfectly suited for livestock or equestrian uses. To he front of the property the well-maintained gardens, contain former vegetable gardens, a small orchard, a variety of mature plants and shrubs and a variety of outbuildings such as garages, greenhouses, and agricultural structures.
The property is approached through twin timber gates giving access to the tarmac driveway which provides ample off-road parking. There is a workshop with twin timber doors to the front and pedestrian door to the rear. ‘Worcester’ oil-fired boiler serving the central heating system. The workshop has power, light and cold water connected. In addition, there are also Two detached Garages, one with restricted vehicle access (currently used as stores).

The garden continues down one side of the property enjoying lovely countryside views. The rear garden has a paved patio adjoining the conservatory with pedestrian gate providing access to the paddock.
The paddock consists approximately 3.5 acres of gently sloping or level pastureland with good drainage to the hedged boundaries. The paddock would be ideally suited to livestock or equestrian purposes.
To the rear of the site a general purpose agricultural barn measuring 60' x 30' (18.3m x 9.14m) of steel frame construction with mixture of profile sheet cladding and concrete blocks. The barn is currently used as a workshop and store but could equally be used for livestock or has potential to be converted subject to the necessary planning permissions.
