A rare detached country home set in about 6 acres of gardens, paddock, woodland and River Exe frontage, just outside Dulverton in Exmoor National Park. The house retains strong period character — exposed beams, inglenook with bread oven and two wood-burning stoves — and offers generous living spaces including a large triple-aspect lounge and farmhouse kitchen. Fishing rights are included; hunting rights are retained by a third party.
This property will suit a family, smallholder or buyer seeking a rural hobby farm: the paddock and field shelter are ready for equestrian use or small livestock, and there are several outbuildings, garage and ample parking. Private water and drainage are in place; mains electricity is connected. The plot has three separate access points and excellent privacy from mature planting.
Important considerations: the house is an older, uninsulated granite build with oil-fired boiler and radiators. There is high flood risk on the site and no mobile signal; mains broadband speeds are good but services are mixed. Council tax is described as quite expensive and the local area scores as deprived with above-average crime. Buyers should expect ongoing maintenance and potential retrofit works (insulation, heating, possible flood mitigation) rather than a turn-key modern country home.
No onward chain makes for a straightforward purchase route, but surveys are strongly recommended to confirm condition, drainage and flood exposure before exchange. For those prepared to manage maintenance and flood risk, this is a substantial historic property with exceptional grounds and strong lifestyle potential on Exmoor.
