Situation - This hugely appealing, attached barn conversion is situated within Dartmoor National Park, on the edge of the popular moorland village of Mary Tavy. Located part-way along a quiet no-through road, the property enjoys a pretty, verdant outlook on both sides as well as an excellent degree of peace, privacy and shelter. The village itself is served by a shop and Post Office, and there are two popular pubs within walking distance in addition to the village's OFSTED Outstanding-rated Primary School. For those who enjoy an outdoors-oriented lifestyle, the property is located on Route 27 of the National Cycle Network, and there is also very easy access onto the open expanse of Dartmoor National Park, either at Black Down Common, 1.2 miles to the northeast, or at Horndon, 1.7 miles to the northwest, offering unlimited opportunities for walking and exploring. Tavistock, 4 miles to the south, is a thriving market town in West Devon forming part of a designated World Heritage Site and offering a superb range of shopping, recreational and educational facilities, including the sought-after private and independent school, Mount Kelly. Plymouth, 18 miles to the south, offers extensive amenities with the added attraction of its coastal access. The cathedral city of Exeter lies 40 miles to the northeast, providing connections to London and the rest of the UK via its railway links, the M5 motorway and its international airport.
Description - This unique, stone-built former dairy is offered to the open market for the first time in 15 years with no onward chain, having recently been comprehensively improved and upgraded by our clients, both inside and out. Internally, the property offers some exceptionally characterful and comfortable three-storey accommodation, which is finished and presented to a very high standard and in a particularly tasteful style. Externally, there are wonderfully landscaped lawn and woodland gardens, in addition to two decked balconies, all of which have been carefully designed to take full advantage of the property's picturesque surroundings. Finally, there is ample off-road parking for three vehicles, making this a very well-rounded home which should appeal to younger and growing families as well as couples and those downsizing.
Accommodation - Throughout this very individual property are various traditional and character features, including original stonework, exposed timberwork and A-frames, slate window sills and flagstone flooring, oak flooring and bespoke joinery, and ledged and braced doors. The accommodation has been decorated and finished in a tasteful style to complement these features whilst providing an excellent level of modern comfort and natural light. On the ground floor, the accommodation is accessed up a short set of granite steps initially into a very convenient utility/boot room which in turn leads through a stable door into a central hallway. From the hallway there is a rear door out to the garden and doors off to two bedrooms, including the master with an en-suite bathroom, and a separate shower room. The master bedroom also features French doors to the garden. Stairs rise from the hallway to the first floor, which provides some incredibly striking, vaulted reception space which is open-plan into the kitchen. This hugely impressive room is triple-aspect, centred around a substantial log burner and features patio doors out to the two decked balconies which, between them, provide sun in both the morning and afternoon. The kitchen is equipped with a range of handmade cupboards and cabinets with deep granite worktops, to include an AEG electric hob and oven, ceramic sink and pantry cupboard. Stairs lead up to a mezzanine floor which could serve as a third bedroom, or would be equally suited to use as a home office, hobbies or snug room.
Outside - The property's beautifully landscaped, principal garden is south-facing and has been carefully planted with an abundance of flowering shrubs, climbers and perennials, being mostly of an evergreen variety for year-round interest and privacy. The garden is enclosed mainly by stone walling and features well-stocked borders, a wildlife pond and a private seating area beneath a timber pergola, planted with a young wisteria and a passion flower. Granite steps lead up to one of the two balconies off the sitting room. Across the lane is a separate area of newly landscaped woodland garden and gravelled parking area, providing off-road parking for three vehicles. The peaceful and private woodland garden is set below the parking area and complete with seating, from where one can enjoy some wonderful views over neighbouring farmland.
Services - Mains electricity, water and drainage. Oil-fired underfloor heating. Please note that the agents have neither inspected nor tested these services.
