A well-appointed south-facing Grade II Listed farmhouse with grounds totalling 1.74 acres, optional further 2 acres. 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, B&B potential and 3 reception rooms. EPC: D. Council Tax: E. Freehold.
Situation - Lower Burston is situated in the hamlet of Burston just outside the village of Bow which has a strong community with village shop, pub, primary school, church, community centre, village hall and doctors’ surgery. The market town of Crediton (8 miles) has an excellent range of day-to-day facilities whilst the university and cathedral city of Exeter (17 miles) has a more comprehensive range of amenities befitting a centre of this importance. Exeter has railway stations on the London Paddington and Waterloo lines plus an international airport. There is a station on the Tarka line at Copplestone (4 miles). Dartmoor National Park is 6 miles to the south.
The House - This detached, historic house, is Listed Grade II and the register states that it dates from the early or mid-16th century with major late 16th century and 17th century improvements along with a 17th century extension and modernised in the late 19th century. It originally was a three room and through passage plan house. There are some fabulous historic features including many beams, cross-passage entrance hall plus fine fireplaces. The house faces south with the majority of the reception rooms and bedrooms all facing this way with attractive views over its gardens and manege and then beyond over farmland. As one will see from the photographs, there are a wealth of historic features plus a well-appointed farmhouse kitchen with a Heritage range cooker which provides for cooking, domestic hot water and central heating. This property has been updated and improved by the current owners to provide a beautiful family home.
The Grounds - There are attractive mature gardens primarily on the south side with stunning views across rolling countryside. In addition, there is a garden office/leisure room with paved patio/seating area and large hot tub. Beyond is a further grassed area along with extensive kitchen garden with soft fruit with the potential to turn this into a paddock area. A further paddock (currently an orchard) lies to the east of the house and between the two is a full size arena (40m x 20m). In total, the property amounts to about 1.74 acres. A short distance from the house is an excellent, fully enclosed, multi-purpose building 60’ x 30’ with pairs of doors in two walls.
Access - The farmhouse and other properties will have a right of way up the farm drive. There will be a shared maintenance charge.
Additional Land - Beyond to the east is a further area of agricultural land, fenced with trees on the southern boundary of 1.96 acres, which is available if required.
Services - Mains water. Mains electricity. Oil-fired central heating. Private drainage. Working Well.
