Set in an idyllic hamlet just outside Brentor, this spacious five-bedroom period farmhouse offers generous living space and extensive, well-established gardens. The house retains much original character — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces and a flowing Devon long-house layout — while recent sympathetic refurbishment has upgraded many rooms for comfortable family living. A large kitchen with an Aga, utility and boot room make countryside life and muddy boots easy to manage.
The plot includes a cobbled courtyard, greenhouse, productive vegetable garden across the lane and a semi-detached two-storey barn currently used for storage. The barn and former stone piggeries offer flexible outbuilding space that could suit workshops, studios or additional accommodation subject to planning. Large lawns and west-facing patios make the outdoor space especially enjoyable in the afternoon and evening.
Practical points to note: the property is served by oil central heating and private drainage, with granite walls that appear uninsulated. Broadband is very slow and mobile signal is average; there are shared maintenance costs for the unmade access lane. The house is well placed for country pursuits and is under a 10-minute drive from Tavistock’s amenities and schools, with the A30, rail links (Okehampton) and both coasts within reasonable driving distance.
