Dittisham, Dartmouth, Devon, TQ6

A fabulous farmhouse with detached studio set in over 5 acres, less than a mile from Dittisham with glimpses to the River Dart.

Description

Bramble Torre Farm is nestled in the rolling South Hams’ countryside, in a peaceful valley which offers wonderful privacy and seclusion but is less than a mile from Dittisham and the River Dart.

Arranged over three floors, the main accommodation is wonderfully versatile in layout whilst still retaining the charm and elegance one would expect.

The ground floor entrance hall with its beautiful flagstone floor is spacious and welcoming and really sets the tone for what is to come. At one end, the ground floor offers a generous double bedroom, currently set up with built in bunk beds, as well as a single bedroom and a family bathroom.
At the opposite end is a wonderful family room with wood burning stove and French doors leading out to the front terrace, together with a shower room and a convenient utility/boot room.

Stairs rise from the family room to the first floor which offers two generous double bedrooms and a lovely galleried landing with access to the rear garden. This could be separated from the main house to create a self-contained annexe.

From the entrance hall, stairs rise to the first floor of the main house which is dedicated to the living accommodation. The well-equipped farmhouse kitchen is integrated with a range of appliances including a fridge/freezer, oil fired aga and a pantry. French doors lead to a lovely terrace which provides the perfect spot for morning coffee.

Beyond the kitchen is a fabulous dining/garden room which is fully glazed creating an abundance of natural light. French doors on both sides provide access to the kitchen terrace to one side and the gardens to the other and really gives a feeling of bringing the outside, in.

The cosy sitting room with its feature fireplace also benefits from French doors which lead out onto a decked balcony which provides wonderful views over the valley to the River Dart as well as access to the gardens.

The second floor provides a lovely principal bedroom with built in wardrobes and views over the gardens and countryside beyond. This room also benefits from an en suite bathroom which can also be accessed from the landing. There is a further double bedroom with en suite bathroom on this floor.

As well as the main house, there is also a detached studio annexe which offers fabulous guest accommodation and benefits from a lovely living area with French doors to a decked balcony, a kitchenette, a shower room and mezzanine bedroom.

Gardens and Grounds
Outside, Bramble Torre Farm sits in exquisite gardens and grounds. As well as the various terraces immediately outside the living accommodation, the formal gardens offer numerous lawned areas with an abundance of flora and fauna.

Well established and bordered with mature trees and shrubs, the gardens are wonderfully private and well landscaped and with various sitting areas from which to enjoy the surroundings and views. Beyond the formal gardens is a sloping paddock which takes the land to just over 5 acres and which benefits from two access points, one from the driveway to Bramble Torre Farm and one further along the lane.

As well as the stunning gardens, Bramble Torre Farm offers ample driveway parking for a number of vehicles as well as a workshop/former stable and a generous log store.
