A rare Devon longhouse dating from the 1600s, set in about 5 acres of paddock, orchard and coppice with a large pond and superb valley views. The stone-built farmhouse retains period character — slate floors, bread-oven fireplaces and flexible rooms — while solar panels and double glazing offer some modern upgrades. Outbuildings include a barn/garage, loose boxes and a sizable modern building; a further 10.5 acres with additional buildings can be bought separately.
The layout suits multi-generational living or a small B&B: five good-sized bedrooms, two principal bathrooms plus adaptable reception space across approximately 3,260 sq ft. Practical features are private driveway, off-street parking, private borehole water, oil-fired boiler with radiators, and private drainage. Flood risk is low and the location is very peaceful, within easy driving distance of Tavistock, Launceston and the A30.
Buyers should note this is an historic property constructed before 1900 and will carry ongoing maintenance responsibilities: stone walls with internal insulation, older services and period fittings may need upgrading. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is average — important for home-working. Additional land and large outbuildings are available by separate negotiation if you need more equestrian or agricultural space.
For those seeking countryside privacy with genuine development potential, Holdstrong Farmhouse offers a rare combination of character, space and flexible use — from a family home or smallholding to a rural B&B — in a tranquil Lyd Valley setting.
