***Guide Price £900,000-£950,000***
Situated in the popular hamlet of Torbryan in between the villages of Ipplepen and Broadhempston sits this commanding late medieval Grade II listed farmhouse including a one bedroom self-contained cottage with useful outbuildings, some of which have planning permission and commercial use.
This farmhouse is brimming with a wealth of character and charm from the exposed beams, barn style doors to the inglenook fireplaces. This property definitely has the wow factor and as soon as you enter the home, you will be welcomed by the 'Piano' room which provides a super reception room and chill out area for the family to entertain in. The property leads nicely into a formal living room with lovely inglenook fireplace, where you can sit and hear the crackle of the fire. A lovely place to retreat too after a busy day. When the guests come to visit there is a generous sized dining room for more formal entertaining and double doors lead off to the front lawned garden. The kitchen/breakfast room has lots of storage, character wood countertops and has a beautiful centre island with stools for more practical eating on the go. There is a bonus of a utility area to accommodate the noisy appliances and a useful boot room to kick off your shoes/boots after working on the garden or coming back from the dog walk. The tour continues upstairs where there are four well-proportioned bedrooms with a wonderful principal bedroom with convenient dressing room and en-suite shower room giving a modern twist. There is also a good-sized family bathroom with 'Victorian' style clawfoot bath and separate shower cubicle. The property leads out from the boot room to the courtyard garden area which is part lawned and here you will find the outside bar being a great place to enjoy an early evening drink with family and friends. Located beside the property is the former duck barn which is a large stone barn (currently used for chickens) which has planning permission for ancillary accommodation. This is where you need to use your imagination to see the scope and potential this property offers. Continuing outside you go to the far side and you will then find two further barns, one of which is currently used as a distillery with B1 & B2 commercial use and the other currently used as a workshop and previously had permission for a two bedroom cottage where the planning has since lapsed. The big bonus about this property is a large self-contained one bedroom cottage that could provide an additional income for you. This cottage has the same charm and character as the main house with a beautiful living room with inglenook fireplace, open kitchen/diner and bedroom with en-suite. Perfect to rent out or annexe for family to use. Furthermore the gardens wrap around the property to the front with a raised lawn bank overlooking open fields. It really does give you a taste of the country. There is ample parking to the side in the front courtyard area great when family come to visit. This property is a real cracker waiting for your earliest viewing!!
