The house is complemented by extensive gardens and grounds, providing a wonderful setting for family life, entertaining, and outdoor pursuits. Mature trees and established planting create an attractive landscape, with several seating areas from which to enjoy the views. A range of outbuildings add further appeal, whether for storage, hobbies, or conversion opportunities, and the generous acreage offers scope for keeping animals, growing produce, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy of the rural setting
Approached via a gravelled driveway with parking for three to four vehicles, the property also benefits from a garage/workshop with an attached potting shed, both with scope for a variety of uses or conversion (subject to the necessary planning consents). The mature, predominantly south-facing gardens are a highlight—beautifully landscaped with a diverse range of plants and shrubs, private seating areas, a productive vegetable plot with two greenhouses and sheds, a feature pond, and an abundance of wildlife, particularly birdlife.
Beyond the gardens lies additional land, ideal for equestrian or smallholding use, featuring two stables and offering easy access to the open moorland of Dartmoor — perfect for riding, walking, and enjoying the surrounding natural beauty.
We understand the gravelled drive is in the ownership of Moor View, with the neighbouring property having a right of way to access their garage. There is also a further right of way through a five-bar gate leading to a field situated behind the property.
This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a character home in a sought-after location, offering space, tranquillity, and direct access to some of Devon’s most breathtaking countryside.
The property enjoys a desirable position on the fringes of the charming village of Mary Tavy, set just along Chapel Lane and approached via a gravelled driveway that leads to a generous parking area. Nestled within extensive and beautifully maintained gardens, it offers a wonderful sense of privacy and seclusion while still being conveniently close to village amenities. The south-facing gardens, thoughtfully landscaped and brimming with mature trees, shrubs, and vibrant planting, provide a truly idyllic setting for the property and create a peaceful rural retreat.
Mary Tavy itself is a welcoming and well-regarded village, located approximately 4 miles north of the historic market town of Tavistock and lying on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park, an area renowned for its stunning natural beauty, rugged landscapes, and endless opportunities for walking, cycling, and outdoor pursuits. The village offers a good range of local facilities, including a primary school, post office, church, the Whaf and two traditional inns, each with its own character and charm. There is also the convenience of a bus service linking the village with Tavistock, which provides a wider selection of shops, supermarkets, leisure facilities, and secondary schooling.
