Description

SUMMARY Positioned within a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after Dartmoor village of North Bovey, this three-bedroom home offers a rare combination of village living and useable acreage.

Across the lane, approximately 13 acres of pasture and woodland extend the offering considerably, complete with stables, a hay barn, hardstanding and a collecting yard. From here, there are far-reaching views across open countryside towards Bovey Castle, creating a setting that feels both private and connected to the wider landscape.

The result is a property that works on multiple levels - a comfortable home within the village, paired with land and infrastructure that support equestrian use, smallholding or a more rural, lifestyle-led way of living.

THE PROPERTY From the front door, the house opens into an entrance hall, where there is useful built-in storage along with a recently re-fitted cloakroom, providing a practical and well-considered space for day-to-day use.

There is an internal access door to the garage. From here, the layout leads naturally into the kitchen, which is arranged with a good selection of wall and floor mounted kitchen cupboards and drawers with ample work surface for everyday use, while a window above the sink brings in natural light and a pleasant outlook. Adjoining the kitchen, a separate utility area offers additional space for appliances and storage, helping to keep the main kitchen clear and uncluttered. It is a useful extension of the working area, particularly suited to the practicalities of a rural or land-based lifestyle, with doors leading out to the rear garden.

Beyond, the sitting room forms the main living space of the house. It is a comfortable and well-balanced room, centred around a fireplace with inset stove, with dual aspect windows allowing for good natural light throughout the day. It is a room well suited to both everyday living and quieter evenings, offering a sense of comfort and ease at the heart of the house. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, reinforcing the connection between the house and its outdoor space.

The bedrooms are arranged across the upper floor, each offering a comfortable and adaptable space. The rooms vary in shape and aspect, but all provide a practical setting for family living, guest accommodation or workspace. They offer flexibility as needs evolve over time, making the house well suited to a range of buyers.

The shower room has been thoughtfully arranged to create a clean and contemporary space, centred around a walk-in shower with modern fittings. Natural light enhances the room, giving it a bright and well-balanced feel. Designed with practicality in mind, it serves the house comfortably for everyday use.

OUTSIDE To the rear, the garden is enclosed and arranged for ease of maintenance, creating a private and manageable outdoor space suited to everyday use. Side access provides a practical link between the front and rear of the property, while the oil tank is discreetly positioned to one side. To the front, a roller shutter door gives access into the garage, with two parking spaces situated directly in front, allowing for straightforward and convenient parking within the cul-de-sac.

It is the land and its setting that define this property. The house itself is positioned within a quiet cul-de-sac,
offering a sense of calm and community within the village. Across the lane lies the land - a cohesive block of approximately 13.2 acres combining pasture and areas of woodland. The approach is practical and accessible, leading to a well-arranged yard with hardstanding and a collecting area, designed to support day-to-day use. The outbuildings include a range of stables and a hay barn, providing the infrastructure for equestrian or land based use without the need for immediate investment. From the land, the outlook opens up across the surrounding Dartmoor landscape, with views stretching towards Bovey Castle - a constant reminder of the setting's quality and position. Together, the house and land create a property that offers both immediate enjoyment and long-term potential.
