Summary - EAST CROWNDALE BROOK ROAD TAVISTOCK PL19 9DP
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Period farmhouse, stables, sand school and tennis court on 4.47 acres near Tavistock.
Versatile farmhouse over 3,100 sq ft with attic conversion
A rare equestrian smallholding just on the edge of Tavistock, East Crowndale combines privacy and immediate convenience. The versatile circa-1880 farmhouse offers over 3,100 sq ft across principal, first and converted attic floors, with south- and west-facing gardens, a conservatory and plentiful character features. The grounds include high-quality stabling, a 40x20ft sand school, tennis court, varied outbuildings and pasture extending to 4.47 acres (11.89 acres in total if additional lots purchased separately). PV panels provide an income stream; ultrafast broadband is available.
The house is well-proportioned for family life or a small-holding business. Ground-floor living spaces include multiple reception rooms with wood burners, a farmhouse kitchen with granite worktops and an Aga, utility and home office. Upstairs are multiple double bedrooms with en-suite facilities, a generous family bathroom and a converted loft bedroom with exposed trusses. Gardens wrap around the house, are largely south/west-facing, and border pasture with river frontage on the westerly fields.
Notable practical points are explicit: the property sits in an area with two known capped mine shafts (one in the garden, one beneath the tennis court) and a history of local mining; documentation from the capping exists. The site is also in a high flood-risk zone for parts of the land. Heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators; external walls are traditional granite with assumed limited insulation. Council Tax is Band G, reflecting running costs.
This holding will suit buyers seeking an established equestrian base or a family wanting extensive private grounds within walking distance of town amenities. It also suits those prepared to manage and maintain a period property and its outbuildings, and to plan around the capped shafts and flood-exposure of some fields. An option to purchase further adjoining acreage offers scope to expand grazing or enterprise potential.
