Location:
Lifton, Devon
Description:
A substantial country property with easy main road access comprising a 4 bedroom farmhouse, 3 bedroom barn conversion, 2 bedroom single storey barn conversion and 4.5 acres of pastureland set in a rural location.
THE PROPERTY
The property comprises three dwellings, arranged on four sides around a courtyard.
The main former farmhouse is constructed of stone and comprises three storeys with 4 bedrooms, having private lawned gardens and grounds. The present owners have converted the traditional stone barn to create a spacious second house that is currently used for holiday letting purposes, which would be equally suited as a second dwelling for dual family occupation. Adjacent is a 2 bedroom, single storey barn conversion for holiday use. The land is immediately adjoining the gardens with a stream running along the eastern boundary.
SITUATION
The property is located on the periphery of Broadwoodwidger on the south facing slopes of the Wolf Valley and its surrounding lush West Devon countryside. Roadford Lake Reservoir with its abundant wildlife and pleasant lakeside walks is just two miles away. The village of Lifton offers a good range of facilities including primary school, parish church, farm shop, filling station, village shop & post office, public houses, hotel and restaurant. A wider range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities is available at Launceston. The thriving market town of Tavistock lies some 10 miles to the west and is situated on the western edge of Dartmoor National Park. Tavistock offers an excellent variety of individual shops with a range of recreational facilities and education including primary and secondary schools, both state and private. The main A30 dual carriageway is close at hand providing valuable links to other towns, villages and places of interest, including the capital cathedral city of Truro, St. Austell, the city of Exeter and the coastal surfing resort of Newquay. Airports and rail links are located in both Newquay and Exeter.
