Lot 1 (Guide price £2,950,000): In a stunning and private rural position in the heart of Dartmoor, 2 properties, one the original Grade II* farmhouse and the other a recently converted barn with a very modern interior. Excellent equestrian facilities, paddocks, extensive grassland, woodland and 2 lakes.

Bowden Farm is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and has some stunning views up to Castle Drogo in the distance and to the nearby Bovey Castle Hotel. The property is ideal for those looking for a rural retreat with excellent equestrian facilities within easy reach of good communication links.

The two properties lie across a courtyard from each other. They are very different in style but both are in immaculate order and retain many of their original features. The farmhouse has recently been extended to the rear with an impressive glazed sun room connecting it to the Granary behind. The barn has been completely renovated by the current owners with an impressive contemporary interior including a designer kitchen opening to a dining/sitting area, off which is a large fully glazed sun room and private courtyard garden.

Lot 2 is available by separate negotiation and comprises the equestrian facilities including a large arena, American barn stables with 8 loose boxes, a recently built outdoor sand school (40m x 20m), railed paddocks and pasture. The area offers excellent riding and access to the open moor. Further outbuildings include a garage/workshop, some traditional stone sheds, a large cattle shed and planning for a further cattle shed.

The grazing is let out on a Farm Business Tenancy which is subject to annual review.
