Set on about 7.5 acres on the western edge of Dartmoor National Park, this stylish five-bedroom detached home combines modern build standards with a traditional stone-and-timber façade. Living accommodation is arranged over multiple levels with large open-plan reception spaces — a 31ft kitchen/dining room, a 30ft sitting room with woodburner and a glazed conservatory opening to a sunny deck and lawned gardens. The house includes a principal suite, guest suite, a further two bedrooms, ground-floor bathroom and a study/bedroom with en suite, plus useful outbuildings including a converted barn and workshop.
The extensive grounds include formal lawns, a wildflower meadow with mown paths and adjoining mature woodland, offering privacy and wide-ranging countryside views; the site is a haven for wildlife and outdoor activities. Practical points: the property is freehold, circa 3,366 sq ft, offers good mobile signal and is within about a mile of Horrabridge village amenities, with Tavistock and Plymouth within reasonable driving distance.
Notable constraints are factual: heating is by electric storage heaters which can be costly, broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal, and the property sits in an area of medium flood risk. Council tax is described as expensive. Buyers should also allow for typical countryside maintenance for large grounds and ongoing upkeep of outbuildings. Overall this will suit a family or buyer seeking a spacious, high-privacy rural home with strong leisure and lifestyle appeal, who accepts higher running costs and the responsibilities of substantial acreage.
