Simpson Farm is a substantial period-style farmhouse set in nearly 20 acres of ring-fenced pasture, paddocks and woodland, offering private, elevated views over rolling South Devon countryside. The principal house provides generous family accommodation with formal reception rooms and a linked annexe created from part of the barns — ideal for multigenerational living or guests. A fine C-shaped courtyard of stone barns, a large stone barn with stable fittings and an outdoor riding arena provide immediate equestrian capability and broad scope for storage or conversion (subject to consents).
The property is sold freehold and benefits from underfloor heating served by a ground-source heat pump, south-facing aspect to the principal elevation, garage parking and extensive lawns around the house. At about 6,300 sq ft overall, the house and outbuildings deliver substantial internal and ancillary space for a rural family, hobby farming or smallholding lifestyle. Flood risk is recorded as none and the area has very low crime rates.
Important practical points: the house requires updating and general renovation, and broadband speeds are recorded as very slow — important if remote working or online services are essential. The location is private and peaceful up a no-through lane, which suits buyers seeking seclusion but means daily journeys are longer; mobile signal is average. Council tax is noted as quite expensive and any barn conversions would need planning and listed/building checks before works.
Overall, Simpson Farm will suit buyers seeking a large, private country estate with immediate equestrian facilities and strong potential to modernise and personalise. Its combination of annexe accommodation, substantial outbuildings and wide pastureland makes it particularly attractive to multigenerational families, equestrian purchasers or those looking to develop ancillary uses subject to necessary consents.
