Secluded traditional Devon farm

ON the eastern flank of the popular Dartmoor National Park is Middle Westcott Farm at Doccombe. Wonderfully secluded, this traditional farmhouse has been renovated with the utmost care and is currently on the market with the farms department of Savills, Exeter either as a whole or in lots and has a guide price of £1,250,000 - £1,300,000 for the whole.

Wonderfully secluded, Middle Westcott is a charming example of a Devon farmhouse and having recently undergone extensive renovation, now provides the canvas for a superb four bedroom family home. The oak front door opens to a cross passage hallway with exposed granite stonework. The dual aspect dining room has a part flagstone floor and a large stone inglenook fireplace with bread oven, inset with wood burning stove. Upstairs the bedrooms all enjoy ensuite bath or shower rooms.

The farm is surrounded by a superb range of traditional stone farm buildings. Beyond, woodland and pasture with natural running water and landscaped ponds offer the potential for fantastic gardens .

The land extends to about 165 acres of productive arable land, pasture and amenity and commercial woodland.

Penny Dart, head of Savills' farm agency, said: "Middle Westcott is a diverse farm in a superb setting offering a wealth of opportunities,"

"This popular and convenient location will make this property extremely sought after."

Middle Westcott is ideally situated close to Dartmoor National Park which covers 369 square miles. Featuring some of the wildest and most beautiful country in England it is ideal for walking, cycling and riding as well as exploring the wonderful history that dates back to prehistoric times.

Nearby is the moorland town of Moretonhampstead.
