Outstanding professional service from D R Kivell country property agent.
After deciding to sell our equestrian property in 2023 we had three agents do a market appraisal, and we placed our trust in D. R. Kivell Country Property. We had an initial influx of viewings and Geoff and the team kept us up to date with the proceedings throughout, we sold and moved to our new property spring 2024, and would not hesitate to recommend this country property estate agent, great service throughout.

Garden - The property is approached off the parish road through an electric sliding gate onto a gently sloping, sweeping tamarcadam driveway which leads to the stable yard, and general purpose building. To the front of the bungalow is a large paved parking and turning area with low wall and lawn garden to one side and copper beech hedge border to the other. The gardens wrap around the bungalow on two sides interspersed with specimen trees and shrubs with views over the land below. Raised decking is accessed off the sitting room and provides the perfect location for alfresco dining and entertaining whilst taking in the views across the garden, land and countryside beyond. To rear of the bungalow the decking continues around to a paved patio and smaller lawned area in turn leading to a paddock.

The Land - The undulating land extends to 15.58 acres (6.30 ha) and is free draining in a ring fence, and currently divided into 4 easily managed paddocks enclosed by stock proof fencing and traditional Devon bank hedging with some road frontage. The land slopes down into a valley where there is a small area of broadleaf woodland dividing the land alongside a large stocked wildlife lake with Carp, Tench and Roach. The two steeper paddocks on the other side of the valley offer fantastic far reaching countryside views across the Teign Valley. A high seat provides the prefect vantage point for the hunting enthusiast or nature observer. Outriding is available on the country lanes or using the bridle path opposite the entrance to Tower Views.
