South facing pasture and woodland in tranquil setting with long stream frontage. Private amenity land, 3.74 acres of productive culm grassland and 1.01 acres of Woodland. Generous road frontage and long stream frontage. Excellent walking and riding. 4.75 acres in all.

Situation - "The essence of peace and tranquillity" is how the current owner describes this wild flower meadow and the small streamside woodland that wraps around it. The land is located mid-way between Ashwater, Brandis Corner, Halwill Junction and Holsworthy, in a peaceful, rural part of West Devon. A tributary to the River Claw forms most of the southern boundary.

The popular coastal resort of Bude is 16 miles to the west and the popular well serviced market town of Holsworthy, which offers a comprehensive range of leisure, health and shopping amenities including a Waitrose, is just 5 miles to the north west. There is convenient access on to the A30 at Broadwoodwidger, Launceston and Okehampton being 9 miles, 12 miles and 14 miles respectively. This in turn provides dual carriageway access between the Cathedral cities of Truro and Exeter.

Description - The land comprises 4.75 Acres (1.922 Hectares) and has its own private access off the highway. Just inside the gateway is an area of hardstanding. The field comprises an attractive 3.74 acre meadow of productive culm grassland which, in the spring, sees an abundance of wild flowers. This supports a wide variety of small mammals, insects and other wildlife. (The vendor has filmed a family of otters, two types of deer, rabbits and foxes on the land). The mature broadleaf woodland stretches alongside the stream and across the western end of the land, extending to about 1 acre.

(Possibly of interest to buyers: Devon Wildlife Trust have provided the vendor, and are likely to continue, to offer free advice on conservation management of the culm grassland and grant availability.)

The land is enclosed by a fence or a mature, generally stock proof hedge that provides good shade and shelter. Two styles and two gateways lead from the meadow into the woodland.

The land is likely to appeal to purchasers interested in wildlife and wanting to own an attractive parcel of Devon countryside with pasture, woodland and frontage along a babbling stream. The land is ideally suited to camping under the 28 day Permitted Development Right rules. Although wet in the winter, the land would also suit those looking for productive drought resistant summer grazing.

Method Of Sale - The property is offered for sale by private treaty as a single lot.

Tenure - The land is held freehold and will be sold with vacant possession upon completion.

Services - The land is both naturally watered from the stream and by a metered mains connection. An overhead electricity line crosses the land, that appears to be suitable to connect to. Buyers must satisfy themselves.

Sporting And Mineral Rights - The sporting and mineral rights, such as are owned are included with the freehold.

Wayleaves And Rights Of Way - The property is sold subject to and with the benefit of any wayleave agreements, along with any public or private rights of way that may affect it. The Ordnance Survey Plan shows no public footpaths or bridleways affect the property. The vendor is not aware of any other rights that affect the land.

Plans And Boundaries - A plan, which is not to be relied upon, is on the back of the sale particulars. Purchasers must satisfy themselves from inspection or otherwise as to its accuracy. The land is generally bordered by a stock proof fence, mature stock proof hedges or the stream, (the centre of the stream is believed to be boundary).

Viewing - Strictly by prior appointment with the vendors appointed agent, Stags, Launceston office.

Directions - From Halwill Junction proceed along the A3079 towards Brandis Corner for approximately 2 miles. Turn left on the right hand corner immediately after the layby signposted Ashwater. Proceed along this road for 1.5 miles and at the bottom of the hill, immediately after a right hand corner and just before a bridge over a stream, the gate into the land is on your right hand side. A For Sale board has been erected.
