Description
A captivating small farm amid stunning countryside.
Situation - Langstone enjoys a most attractive setting within the Dartmoor National Park, just to the west of the river Bovey valley near Lustleigh Cleave, flanked by the dramatic, unspoilt tors of Dartmoor. The peppering of nearby moorland villages includes North Bovey and Manaton both with well-respected pubs, and a village shop in the former, whilst a wide range of amenities can be found in the close by market town of Moretonhampstead. Both the A38 and A30 are within ten miles of the property, offering fast access to the City of Exeter, 20 miles, with excellent schooling, commercial and retail, opportunities, and access to the national motorway network.
General Description - Langstone, mentioned as a Domesday Manor, is an enchanting farm, beautiful and peacefully set amid stunning Dartmoor countryside. The pretty, Grade 11 listed four bedroom stone farmhouse and superb range of unconverted stone barns enjoy a wonderful, sheltered setting and are complimented by more modern, versatile buildings, suitable for a number of ventures. The farmland comprises a delightful mixture of gently sloping, productive pastureland, pretty woodland and rough grazing with good access off a very quiet parish lane.
Langstone Farmhouse - Believed to date from the middle of the 16th century, Langstone Farmhouse nestles in a protected setting enjoying some fine views over Lustleigh Cleave. The evolution of the property over many centuries has resulted in a captivating house, bursting with character and a host of wonderful, historic features. A wide, arched granite front door leads into a cross-passage entrance hall, opening into the sitting room and drawing room, beyond which is a study and downstairs WC, farmhouse style galleried kitchen with half heck door to the rear courtyard, excellent boot room and utility with oil fired central heating boiler. From the entrance hall, stairs lead down to an excellent dry basement with ceramic tiled floor. There are two staircases to the first floor where there are four bedrooms and two bathrooms, a further set of stairs leading up to the attic bedrooms with Velux rooflights. In front of the house, the pretty garden is enclosed, in part by a high stone wall, whilst at the rear the paved terrace is flanked by a low stone wall. Set on slightly higher ground, is a productive kitchen garden with greenhouse and fruit cages, additional lawns to the rear of the buildings offering the perfect spot for sitting out and enjoying the view.
The Barns - Set on the opposite side of a courtyard are an impressive and attractive range of Grade 11 listed single and two story stone barns, which add much to the character of the farm. In the two storey stone barn there is a first floor studio above the workshop. Whilst they may be enjoyed in their current state, they also offer potential for conversion to other uses, subject to the normal planning process. To the rear of these barns are an adaptable range of general purpose buildings suitable for a variety of uses.
The Land - Rising up from the farmstead toward Langstone Cross, the land comprises an attractive mixture of highly productive, free draining pastureland, contained in good sized enclosures flanked by traditional hedge banks together with areas of rough grazing, ponds and woodland, which are a haven for all manner of wildlife. Access to all aspects of the holding is good via field gates leading off the quiet parish lane.
