The vendor reserves the right to withdraw or alter the property for sale prior to the auction end date. The property can be accessed via our website - stags.co.uk
Situation - This property is located on the edge of the Dartmoor village of Horrabridge, within walking distance of all local amenities and with open moorland accessible at Plaster Down within 0.8 miles. Horrabridge sits along the River Walkham and is well-served by local amenities including a convenience store and two popular pubs. The nearby village of Yelverton has a parade of shops featuring a mini-supermarket, local butchers, delicatessen, cafe and pharmacy, whilst the village also has a GP Surgery, Texaco fuel station, Post Office and Veterinary Surgery. For the sports enthusiast, there are golf, cricket, tennis and bowling clubs in close proximity. The thriving town of Tavistock, only 4.5 miles away, offers a superb range of shops, schools and facilities, including the sought-after private and independent school, Mount Kelly, whilst Plymouth city centre is located 10 miles to the south.
Description - This 3-bedroom former farmhouse is offered to the market, chain-free, having been in our client's family's ownership for over 40 years. Originally of stone and masonry construction beneath a slate roof before being extended during the 80s and 90s, the property requires complete renovation although offers excellent potential for alteration, remodelling and extension, subject to any necessary consents or approvals. Currently, the accommodation is comprised of an entrance porch, an L-shaped Kitchen, a conservatory, a good size sitting room, a dining room with exposed stonework and traditional beams, a ground-floor shower room and utility, three first-floor bedrooms (two doubles), and a bathroom. Additionally, there is an extension on the farmhouse's northeastern side which can only be accessed externally, currently arranged as a two-storey study/library with a galleried landing but which could be adapted for various uses, including a home office or self-contained annexe, subject to any necessary consents. Externally, in front of the farmhouse is a small parking area and there are several dilapidated outbuildings including a 2-storey stone barn which may have the potential for conversion, again subject to any necessary planning consents. Surrounding the house and buildings are extensive tiered gardens, which would once have been landscaped, and extended woodland grounds stretching away to the north. There is separate gated access to the woods from the parish lane, which could facilitate clearing and restoration of the site. In all, the plot amounts to 1.78 acres (see our accompanying location plan).
Services - All mains-supplied services are connected (water, electricity, gas and drainage). Previously gas central heating (gas supply currently capped off). Superfast Broadband is available (although no broadband connection is currently active) and mobile/data services are available via all four major service providers (source: Ofcom's online service checker.) Please note that the agents have neither inspected nor tested these services.
Warning - Viewing And Directions - Viewing of the site is strictly by prior appointment with the vendor's appointed agents, Stags Tavistock Office - please contact us for availability. As is clear from our photos, the site is very unsafe (very overgrown, with trip hazards, overgrown ponds, slippery surfaces and concealed drops, as well as collapsed asbestos roof sheets and lots of broken glass) and we therefore urge interested parties not to visit the site unaccompanied - anybody accessing the site does so strictly at their own risk.

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
Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on February 27, 2024 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
