Description

Set in an enchantingly beautiful position within the Dartmoor National Park, Lower Burrows has gorgeous views of the edge of the moor and enjoys both privacy and tranquility. This Arts and Crafts Gem is an unusual example of a single-storey moorland cottage with rose-clad walls of local granite under a part traditionally thatched roof. It is unlisted and has enormous charm, retaining many of its original fittings including timber floors and white-painted ceiling beams.

It has two good-sized reception rooms and a south-facing oak timbered garden room, with full underfloor heating and double doors that open onto a large entertaining terrace looking straight onto the moor. The rooms flow effortlessly into each other, starting from the kitchen and dining room with its wide window looking out to the moor and is fitted with slate topped, timber- fronted units, a Belfast sink, electric fitted oven, and Stanley Range Cooker. It also has two double bedrooms at opposite ends of the house each with their own bathrooms.

The principal bedroom has windows looking south and west, benefiting from the best of the light throughout the day. It also looks out on beautiful countryside as it rises to the moor and is equipped with ample built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room with under floor heating.

Lower Burrows is surrounded by a good-sized, much-loved garden that is a riot of colour throughout the growing season and which provides great privacy. It encompasses a large entertaining area, greenhouse and raised vegetable beds, a gravelled driveway leading to a single garage, a further outbuilding for storage. A brand new Shepherds Hut is available by separate negotiation.


Lower Burrows is situated in a lovely position off a lane leading out of the small, peaceful village of Throwleigh, which is on the North Eastern edge of the Dartmoor National Park. It is not far from the moor itself, which rises to the west of the village. The village has a post office located in the parish church, twice weekly, and is only about a mile from the highly regarded Northmore Arms pub (Tripadvisor 4.5) in Wonson. The small market town of Chagford and larger town of Okehampton are both nearby offering a wide range of shops and local businesses including a Waitrose supermarket in Okehampton plus a choice of GP, dental and veterinary surgeries. There are good transport links within the local area too. The A30 and A382 are both arterial main roads and only about two and a half miles away, providing swift access to the wider main road network. Okehampton has a train station on the Dartmoor Line with an hourly service to Exeter St David's (34 minutes) and Exeter Central with onward connections to Paddington (2 hours 4 minutes) and Waterloo (3 hours 9 minutes) respectively. Exeter Airport is about half an hour by car on the far side of Exeter and has a daily flight to London City Airport as well as other flights to both domestic and international destinations. There is a wide choice of schools locally both from the state and independent sectors including popular primary schools in South Tawton and Chagford plus Mount Kelly in Tavistock and The Maynard and Exeter Cathedral School in Exeter from the independent sector. There is also a mini bus that runs everyday from the village to Mount Kelly school.
