Widecombe-in-the-MoorNewton Abbot, Devon, TQ13 7PN

Dockwell Farm is an exceptionally presented lifestyle farm centred around a handsome originally late longhouse, c. 1600 with later adaptions including a Georgian façade. The property has been sympathetically conserved by the vendors over recent years and its setting has equally been embellished with years' worth of landscaping and improvement. The grounds now form a superb setting for the house which is protected by approximately 22 acres of pasture, woodland and ponds with further land available by separate negotiation.

The farm is accessed via a minor council road and on approaching, boasts the most charming street scene. The attractive farmhouse is constructed of local granite under a slate roof and the accommodation in the house includes a generously proportioned drawing room and dining room for entertaining, with high quality detailing of the period. Flagstone flooring and large fireplaces throughout are a noticeable feature and both of these rooms face south with views over its own land. There is a well appointed kitchen to the rear of the property fitted with an oil fired four oven aga with impressive pantry and office beyond. On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, two of which ensuite and a family bathroom.

The two cottages (known as Brimble Cottage and Dashel Cottage) adjoin the farmhouse to the north and comprise one three bedroom property and one two bedroom property. Both of which are complete to a high standard and have been used as a successfully run and profitable holiday letting business.

Outbuildings & Land

In addition, there is an excellent range of outbuildings comprising modern and traditional buildings which are all used for agriculture and storage purposes.

The land in total extends to approximately 22 acres and comprises good quality, well fenced pasture land mainly bordered by mature hedge banks. The free draining run of land is well suited to the grazing of livestock and mowing purposes and yields a good crop of grass year on year. No artificial fertiliser or chemicals have been used on the land for 25 years. There is an attractive pond high in amenity value on the southern boundary of the farm which is often frequented by wild fowl and other fauna which is surrounded by further banks of lightly wooded ground. Further land available by separate negotiation.
