Property description & features

  • Stunning principle period property
  • 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms
  • Beautiful location with rural views
  • Detached workshop & business offices
  • 4 fantastic stone barns
  • In all about 22 acres
A spectacular Grade II Listed 5 double bedroom property with a substantial amount of land, well kept barns for development as well as a large detached workshop with business offices.

Situation - Higher Bowcombe Farm is located just on the edge of Ugborough village, a unique South Hams village set around a central square and offering excellent facilities including 2 public houses, primary school and a large church dating back to 1121. Ugborough is only minutes from the A38 Devon Expressway providing easy access to both Plymouth and Exeter and main motorway connections.

Description - A stunning Grade II Listed country house with accommodation arranged over 3 floors and set within 22 acres of private land. The property benefits from 4-5 stone barns that could be developed further to create an income or used for additional recreational accommodation for the house. There is also the added advantage of an extensive detached workshop with professional offices installed.

Accommodation - The property is approached via a private sweeping driveway with steps up to the main front door, a magnificent affair with stone pillars. The downstairs accommodation is exceptionally light and airy with a cosy sitting room, formal dining room and additional snug or family room. The owners have created a wonderful kitchen / breakfast room that expresses the originality of the property with exposed wooden beams and an oversized stone fire-place with lintel above. There is an excellent adjoining pantry with access to outside. Also the former meat room has been converted into a large utility room. Downstairs WC.

Upstairs there are 2 further spacious floors with the master bedroom suite on the 1st floor boasting a fabulous dressing room and large en-suite bathroom. A 2nd en-suite bedroom on this floor also enjoys the southernly aspect from the front of the property with a green country landscape. The 2nd floor offers 3 further double bedrooms and an impressive family bathroom with a roll-top cast iron bath and separate shower. Bedroom 6 could be an additional en-suite 'Jack & Jill' bathroom to Bedrooms 3 & 4.

Outside & Buildings - There are multiple options for use of the outbuildings with 4 or 5 stone barns with newly fitted slate roofs one of which has been converted into a 'party' / entertaining barn with 2 storeys. What a wonderful boutique wedding venue this could be. There is also a large workshop adjoining the main house and a large detached workshop with professional offices and relevant facilities.

Higher Bowcombe Farm offers 22 acres of land, 18 of which could be used for cattle as well as manicured lawns, a children's play area with soft surround and sunny decked terrace.

Services - Oil fired central heating throughout the property with underfloor heating installed in the kitchen areas. Private water supply and private drainage. Mains electricity.

Local Authority - South Hams District Council, Follaton House, Plymouth Road, Totnes, Devon TQ9 5NE. [use Contact Agent Button].

Directions - From the square in Ugborough, continue along fore street, heading out of the village, ignoring the left hand turning down Parsonage Lane. The road to Higher Bowcombe Farm is found about 200 yards afterwards on the right hand side, which leads to the private entrance drive of the property.

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
