The first floor provides five bedrooms or four bedrooms and a dressing room, offering excellent flexibility. Three of the bedrooms have their own en-suite facilities, whilst the splendid principal bedroom enjoys a beautifully appointed dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The main bedroom takes full advantage of the outlook over the extensive gardens and grounds, whilst the bedrooms to the front enjoy a lovely rural outlook across the surrounding countryside.

Outside, Wastor Farm is particularly impressive. The property is approached through an attractive walled front garden, whilst to the rear the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 3 acres in total. The grounds have been carefully developed to provide a wonderful variety of spaces, including formal lawns, established gardens, wildlife areas and a meadow, creating an idyllic environment for both people and nature. An above ground swimming pool provides a fantastic recreational feature and is perfectly complemented by the adjoining terrace, which provides an excellent space for outdoor dining, entertaining and enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

The setting is undoubtedly one of Wastor Farm's greatest attributes. Rural and wonderfully peaceful, the property is not isolated, and its position provides the rare opportunity to enjoy the countryside whilst also being within walking distance of the beautiful Wonwell Beach and the village. The surrounding area is renowned for its stunning coastline, rolling countryside and attractive villages, with Modbury providing a good range of everyday amenities and excellent access to the wider South Hams.
