Delightful Georgian farmhouse enjoying superb proportions, impressive far reaching views and about 6.34 acres of gardens and paddocks.
Description
Believed to date back to around the mid1700’s / early 1800’s with a later Georgian addition, Aller Farm is a stunning family home with far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. Its principally Georgian style façade and pretty sash windows really set the tone for what is to come and typical of its period offers generous proportions inside with light rooms and high ceilings. The spacious entrance hall leads to a beautiful, dual aspect sitting room which faces south and west and features an inset dual fuel burning stove for those cosy winter evenings. Opposite the entrance hall is a second, south facing sitting room with inset wood burner. The generous kitchen / dining room is clearly the heart of the home with a central island and oil fired Aga. The kitchen is well equipped with a range of units, a built-in oven and microwave and space for a dishwasher. There is also a utility / boot room and a study off the kitchen as well as a ground floor cloakroom / shower room.
The main staircase rises from the entrance hall to a split landing on the first floor. To the south side is the fabulous principal bedroom with built in wardrobes, feature fireplace and en suite bathroom with roll top bath and a further double bedroom with en suite shower room. To the other side of the landing there are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is also a secondary staircase leading down to the kitchen. Stairs rise again to two attic rooms which are currently used for storage but could be incorporated into the living accommodation if required.
Gardens and Grounds
Approached via a long, private drive which is shared with two other properties, the gardens and grounds at Aller Farm total 6.34 acres and are truly delightful. There is south facing walled garden which is largely laid to lawn and provides the perfect spot for alfresco dining. Beyond the formal garden are two paddocks, one with timber stables and the other with a number of fruit trees and both of which have incredible far reaching views over the rolling countryside and to East Dartmoor. Aller Farm enjoys the benefit of direct access onto Shaptor Woods which offers excellent walks.
Outbuildings include a double garage, two stores and a timber stable block with two stables and a tack room.
Location
Aller Farm is situated in a highly accessible position just north of the thriving moorland town of Bovey Tracey on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, with the well renowned Haytor just 10 minutes away. Bovey Tracey offers a comprehensive range of shops and amenities including a health centre, library, primary school, inns and churches. The town also benefits from good sporting facilities, including a swimming pool and a sports field/ tennis courts. The A38 dual carriageway, linking Exeter and Plymouth to the M5 motorway is within two miles of the town and there are mainline railway stations at Newton Abbot and Exeter. Being within Dartmoor National Park (England’s biggest National Park), some of Devon’s most dramatic and beautiful landscape is on the doorstep. This includes wonderful riding and walking within an area that extends to a breath-taking 365 square miles of open space.
Bovey Castle (just outside Moretonhampstead) offers a superb golf course, alternatively golf can also be played at Stover, near Newton Abbot, Teignmouth or Bovey Golf Centre. The beaches and estuaries of South Devon, including Torbay and the Dart Estuary, are within easy reach and there are a host of good local pubs plus Gidleigh Park or Bovey Castle for five star cuisine.
