Lot 1: The farm bungalow, outbuildings and land about 14.87 acres (6.01 ha) Solomons Farm lies on the western approaches to the tidal River Exe, sitting on slightly higher ground affording wonderful views across the Estuary toward Lympstone, Topsham and Exmouth a little further downstream.

This peaceful setting belies the convenience of the property to a superb transport network, with the main A38 only two miles away and the M5 motorway a further 2 miles.

Transport links are excellent including rail connections to both the Paddington and Waterloo lines, international
airport, and direct access to the M5 motorway.

The stunning coastline of south Devon is within 7 miles whilst Dartmouth is around 25 miles.

THE FARM BUNGALOW

Built in the early 1980’s and subsequently extended, the bungalow occupies a delightful position in the east of the farm, set back from the quiet parish lane and enjoying splendid, far-reaching views over lower-lying adjoining farms and across the Exe Estuary to rising ground beyond.

It is of a good size with four bedrooms, offering comfortable family accommodation, and would now benefit from modernisation to take full advantage of the unrepeatable setting.

The bungalow has an Agricultural Occupancy Condition and offers adaptable, 5 bedroom family accommodation.

OUTSIDE

The bungalow is approached over a short, tarmac entrance drive with parking for several vehicles, beyond which the low maintenance gardens wrap around three sides of the bungalow, from where there are lovely views over adjoining farmland and estuary.

The entrance drive continues past the bungalow to a range of outbuildings including gardens and log stores beyond which are adaptable workshop style buildings.

THE LAND

Lies to the north of the bungalow in one small and one larger paddock and comprises a level run of free draining pastureland, ideal for both agricultural and equestrian uses. It is bounded in the east by a quiet parish road, off which there are fields gates, and benefits from a livestock holding/loading pen.

SERVICES

Mains electricity, gas and private water & drainage to the Farm Bungalow. Separate
mains electricity supply & private water to the farm buildings.

Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    Kivells can be traced back to 1885 when William Thomas Kivell set himself up in business as an auctioneer and land agent, first in Pyworthy and then in Holsworthy. What follows is an account of the Kivell family over four generations in the development of the firm of Kivells, from its origins as a one-man business in the late nineteenth century to its position today as one of the leading firms of Auctioneers, property agents and chartered surveyors in the West Country. William Kivell went on to grow the business and was joined by his sons forming Kivell and Sons, selling farm property and holding livestock auctions. Kivells is a very different firm from that founded by William Thomas Kivell in 1885, however the nature of the business and its ethics remain the same all be it with a much larger area of operation. The firm has recently became a limited company with one of the five directors being David Kivell, a great-grandson of William Kivell. It is organised around five divisions:- Agricultural sales and auctions (including the 3 livestock markets at Holsworthy, Hallworthy and Exeter and on farm sales throughout the Westcountry). Farm, Residential and Commercial Property (covering sales, auctions and lettings). Professional and Valuation work (including surveys, property management, rent reviews and full project management) Machinery and Heritage department (specialise in the sale of steam engines and all manner of vehicles, agricultural and domestic bygones). Kivells now operate from 5 main offices (Exeter, Holsworthy, Launceston, Liskeard and Bude) and 3 market centres (Holsworthy, Exeter and Hallworthy) and the firm employs around 170 full and part-time staff.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
