An unlisted, period farmhouse set in over four acres with extensive outbuildings and no near neighbours.
The propertyNomansland Farm House has a lovely setting amidst lush, level countryside characterised by fields enclosed by thick hedgerows dotted with oak trees. The house itself is set back about 50 yards off a leafy country lane and has no near neighbours. This combination of peace, beauty and privacy provides a perfect setting for this lovely example of a large Devon longhouse, which has been the much-loved home of the same family for 42 years. It has been carefully maintained over that time and today is well presented and unlisted. The exterior of the house is protected by painted render along with wide, timber framed windows, all sheltering under a slate roof. It has generously sized accommodation on two floors and is thoughtfully laid out so that the three of the reception rooms, the kitchen and all five bedrooms are arranged along the front of the house facing southeast with views over the surrounding countryside.This arrangement means that as many rooms as possible enjoy the best of the available natural light throughout the day giving an overall feel of light and space. In recent years it has been refurbished to a high standard with care being taken to retain some original architectural fittings including some fine, chamfered beams, ceiling timbers, window seats, exposed roof timbers and a gorgeous inglenook fireplace in the drawing room, now fitted with a wood burning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room and dining room are interconnected creating a U-shaped room with a beamed ceiling and a fireplace fitted with a wood burning stove. The kitchen fully fitted with units under polished granite work surfaces and a range of built-in electric appliances.Upstairs there are five generous, southeast-facing double bedrooms. The main bedrooms has windows on two sides so it catches the late afternoon/evening sun as well and has an en suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms all share the family bath and shower room.Garden and groundsThe house is approached down a tarmac drive opening onto a large parking area in front of the house. It also extends around one side of the house to a concrete yard with outbuildings on two sides.To one side of the yard is a white-painted, block-built range incorporating a carport flanked by a stable and an open fronted store. Facing back of the house is a timber-clad outbuilding ] encompassing five storerooms. Behind it is a tall contemporary, metal-clad barn (3,825 sq ft) suitable for storing both hay/straw and agricultural machinery/tractors.The garden extends out in front of and to one side of the house, where it is overlooked by the conservatory. It is designed to be easily maintained and consists of lawn fringed by a strip of broadleaf woodland. Beyond the garden and outbuildings are two paddocks.The smaller of the two lies beyond the side area of garden and currently forms part of the garden overlooked by a roofed pergola. The other, which amounts to about half the total acreage, is enclosed by a mix of post and rail fencing and thick field hedging. In all the garden and grounds amount to about 4.05 acres (1.64 hectares).Additional InformationMobile Coverage:Please look at the Ofcom website for more information
