DARTINGTON
Dartington is a popular village within walking distance of Totnes along foot and cycle paths. It has a good range of facilities including a fine Victorian parish church, a post office/general stores, primary school, community centre, garage and pub. There is also a playing field, a nature trail along the attractive Bidwell Brook and the popular Cider Press Centre. The village is best known for Dartington Hall, its music & literature festivals and the many cultural facilities and events that it offers. The A38 is within ten minutes' drive. Totnes, within about 2 miles, is known as an Elizabethan town but has much earlier origins with a castle, a wonderful position on the River Dart and a main line railway station. It has a well-regarded community college, a full range of shops, a weekly market and a wide choice of cultural facillites.
THE PROPERTY
A former Dartington Trust farmhouse, Appalachian Spring presents an attractive solution for buyers looking for a rural family property with a Dartington address and which is also close to Totnes, its station and its community college, both of which are within a mile and a half. Dartington is just to the north and Totnes is within walking distance along Copland Lane. The house is detached and faces south, overlooking a colourful, pretty garden and with a pleasant country view beyond it. Situated in a quiet lane, its spacious accommodation includes two reception rooms, two bedrooms, a vaulted music room or workshop, a garage and a one-bedroom annexe. The layout is flexible - rooms could be adapted for different uses and the annexe could be incorporated into the main house. This is a charming and appealing old property which has some modern touches - sunpipes bring natural daylight into several of the rooms and solar panels heat the water, backed up by a recently installed oil fired combination boiler.
