It is attached to a smaller neighbouring cottage which was the former dairy to the farmhouse. This charming character home is spacious and well proportioned and very well presented with three comfortable reception rooms, two large stone fireplaces with wood burners, a big bespoke fitted kitchen with an Aga, a utility room and a wet room on the ground floor. Upstairs is accessed by two staircases, one at either end of the house and there are five double bedrooms and a well appointed separate shower room and bathroom. Separate from the house is an outbuilding with a gym/spa area and a large home office and there is also a covered bay with a workshop. The gardens are beautiful with a large grassed area with mature deciduous trees and a paved patio, a gravelled drive and plenty of parking. A notable feature is the vegetable garden and parterre which is sheltered behind mature hedgerows and which has a large greenhouse and a summerhouse. This delightful home must be seen to be appreciated and Fowlers strongly recommend viewing.

Fowlers have a prominent corner office in the bustling town square in Chagford and we cover all of North East Dartmoor.  Philip Fowler has 34 years of experience as an estate agent and has practised solely in North East Dartmoor for 26 years after running estate agents in Middlesex and Buckinghamshire previously.
