Description

Lot 1:
Reed Farmhouse, traditional and modern outbuildings with approximately 8.29 acres Reed Farm is a quintessential late medieval farmhouse constructed of rendered cob on stone footings under a slate roof. The farmhouse was altered in the 1970s whilst retaining many of the historic features. In 2019 planning and listed building consent was granted to replace the windows, replace the existing kitchen with a new extension and reconfigure the existing layout. The windows were replaced with timber double glazed units under this consent. Further details of the planning & listed building consent are available by following this link Planning Reference numbers 0440/19 & 0146/19#

Whilst in need of some updating Reed Farmhouse currently offers a well-presented and spacious family home with many traditional features as follows:- The ground floor features a generous and flowing layout ideal for both family living and entertaining. The open stone porch leads to a solid wooden front door inset within a magnificent stone arch. The front door opens to a wonderful traditional oak panelled cross passage hall with a door left to the sitting room a lovely dual aspect light filled reception room with large inglenook fireplace with bread oven and inset with woodburning stove. A door leads through to the study which has French windows out to the garden. From the staircase hall a door opens to the main reception room currently for both dining and sitting and equipped with fireplace inset with woodburning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room is generously sized and includes a traditional range cooker with a large window above the worktop with a fantastic view across the Teign Valley towards Higher Ashton church, Halson Belvedere and the Haldon hills. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious utility room. There is also a downstairs cloakroom with WC accessed from the staircase hall.

The first floor comprises five bedrooms in the current layout, each with its own character and charm. The additional bedrooms range in size creating a layout ideal for families and/or guests. A family bathroom serves the first floor, with separate WC adjacent to bedroom 2. The planning approval from 2019 provided for revisions to the bathroom and WC and for an additional bathroom to provide an ensuite for bedroom 1 (in place of bedroom 4).
