Description
In a secluded position set well back off Staplehill Road, Gorse Blossom Farm is an impressive five bedroom one-off family home.
In the last 20 years, the house has been remodelled and enlarged from the original farmhouse, and provides a wonderful family home of impressive proportions with some far reaching rural views.
The gardens and grounds are equally impressive with large expanses of lawn, various seating areas and a mixed woodland together with a useful range of outbuildings. The whole site extends to approximately 1.97 acres, as measured on Pro-map.
For those seeking additional land there is a field/paddock of approximately 1.98 acres (as measured on Promap) and a further 1.61 acres (as measured on Promap) of deciduous woodland with dilapidated open-fronted farm building, and independent road access, available to purchase by separate negotiation - please contact our offices for further details.
Staplehill Road is situated on the outskirts of Liverton, south of the A38, in a semi-rural yet extremely convenient spot. Local amenities within walking distance include two pubs, the excellent Blackpool primary school, Stover independent school for children 3-18, Liverton Post Office/general stores and Trago Mills shopping centre.
The A38 at Drumbridges provides quick, easy access to Exeter and Plymouth, and Dartmoor National Park is just a few minutes drive away. Public paths/bridle ways give access to good walking country including to the Stover Nature Reserve.

The grounds extend to approximately 1.97 acres (as measured on Promap) in total and include gardens with large expanses of gently sloping grassy lawns and banks interspersed with numerous established trees. A large metal cage structure is perfect for keeping poultry or perhaps as a large kennel or secure storage. There are various seating areas with a patio terrace adjoining the property, and the gardens are extremely private.
There are two further large garage buildings/workshops, one timber and one of sectional construction, both with concrete floors, a summerhouse, garden shed and two open stores.
To one side of the gardens lies a large area of mixed woodland, attracting much wildlife.
Services
Mains electricity and water. Private drainage shared with three neighbouring properties. Oil for hot water/heating (we are advised by the seller that the Rayburn requires a new pump for the central heating radiators, although the hot water supply works).
