This delightful farmhouse set within Dartmoor National Park with approximately 4 acres in the most incredible location. Enjoying uninterrupted views and easy access onto the surrounding moor
Middle Stoke House is a south facing, elevated former farmhouse enjoying delightful rural views over the River Dart Valley and open moorland. Believed to have Victorian/Edwardian origins, the house itself benefits from superb proportions throughout including high ceilings, pretty windows, square rooms and feature fireplaces and has been lovingly restored by the current owners to provide a wonderful family home for all seasons of the year.
Approached by a shared drive and then onto its own private gated driveway with parking, Middle Stoke House is incredibly inviting with an attractive veranda covering the rear door which in turn opens up into a wonderful entrance hall which flows through the house and out to the south facing garden. - perfect for welcoming guests. There is an excellent feel throughout the house with all three reception rooms benefiting from feature fireplaces and long distant views. In particular the sitting room and dining room, both of which are south facing and look out over the garden. The double aspect kitchen/breakfast room enjoys a different view, overlooking one of the paddocks and front drive. The kitchen itself houses a wide selection of solid wood base and drawer units centred around a Watson rayburn. There is ample space for a breakfast table creating a lovely area for family life or entertaining.
The pretty staircase rises to the generous first floor landing where there is a window that frames the magnificent views perfectly.
