A superb, unspoilt farm

For over 125 years the Harris family have occupied West Wonford Farm, Milton Damerel, just four miles north of the market town of Holsworthy.

Originally the farm formed part of the Stanhope Estate, and the family were tenant farmers. Having acquired the freehold the family have continued to farm in a traditional way up until this year when Edgar Harris together with his sister have decided to close this incredible chapter on their lives and lifelong association with this highly productive farm.

Stags, Launceston and their farms' specialist, Gordon Millar have been entrusted to manage the sale of this superb and unspoilt property. The farm, now with 57 acres will be offered for sale as a whole or in three lots by public auction in July unless sold privately meanwhile. Lot one will comprise the homestead and 4.7 acres. The original five bedroom farmhouse supports extensive accommodation that possesses tremendous charm and lends itself to further improvement. The adjacent large range of outbuildings comprise a blend of some architecturally superb stone and slated barns and more modern covered yards. There is massive potential within this lot to upgrade and make the whole one of the most desirable properties of its type within the locality.

The two following lots - 29.7 acres and 22.4 acres are of prime south facing grazing land, one lot has some three acres of broadleaf woodland as an added attraction and excellent habitat for the abundant wildlife that can be appreciated amidst this tranquil backwater.

The guide price of £550,000 for lot one or £750,000/£800,000 as a whole would insure to encapsulate those discerning purchasers who have not been put off with all the adverse press presently attributed to the property market. Properties with quality and potential that are being marketed at the correct price are still inviting considerable interest and resulting in positive sales.
