There is also a large, open-fronted field store which is access via a separate track and given the necessary permission, could be developed for alternative use. A secluded patio area is at the rear of the property and takes advantage of the afternoon sun, and a decked area to the front of the house enjoys the stunning views of Dartmoor.
