Description

Fair Oak Farm is the most delightful rural property that offers an idyllic way of life. The property consists of a four bedroom farmhouse with a charming garden, a variety of barns and outbuildings surrounding the house including a barn that is linked to the house, a party barn, a two storey barn opposite the house and a stable block. The land extends to about 50 acres that includes about 25 acres of pasture and 25 acres of woodland.
The private driveway leaves the quiet rural lane and there is a turning circle in front of the pole barn and a courtyard and lawn in front of the house. The front door to the farmhouse leads into a staircase hallway with a slate floor. Off this is the sitting room or study that has a wood burner and a slate floor
with French doors leading out to the front lawn. Steps lead up to the living room/party room/games/cinema room. It has a log burner with a back boiler and a bar. Stairs lead up to a mezzanine above which is currently used for storage. A door leads out to the front lawn and also a door leads out to the rear garden and covered terrace that has decking and a gazebo. To
the other side of the hall is the kitchen that leads through to the dining room where there is an oil-fired, two door AGA. A door leads out the rear garden and lower terrace that is charming and has a Mediterranean and nautical feel with seats created out of old boats (not included in house sale). It has terracotta tiles and a mirror
surrounded by Mexican tiles.
Off the kitchen/dining room is a TV room or snug that used to be the old dairy and has a cosy feel. Beyond is a secondary kitchen or pantry that leads through to a utility room, off which is a downstairs shower room. Beyond is a boot room with a back door and a door that leads into an old cowshed that is currently used as a workshop and has a dark room. Steps lead up to a mezzanine storage area above. The outside door leads into a small herb garden that is perfect for enjoying the morning sun.
Stairs lead up to the first floor landing and corridor off which are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a family shower room. The family shower room could also be used as an en suite shower room with one of the bedrooms. At least two of the bedrooms have stunning, south-facing views out across the countryside to Dartmoor in the distance. All four bedrooms are double rooms.

Outbuildings
Outside and opposite the house is a lovely two story barn that was once a cow shed and is currently used for storage and has a WC and water. It is a freezer and store and a wood store. Adjoining the house is a barn that is currently used for hobbies. Opposite this is a party barn.
Behind the house is an above ground swimming pool. Beside this is a summer house that has electric power and decking in front. Beyond is a stable block with three loose boxes, hard standing and separate access off the lane. There is a EE mast on the land that generates an income. In addition there is a poly tunnel, a vegetable patch, ponds and an outdoor arena.
The Land
The grazing land extends to about 25 acres and has been farmed organically for about 30 years, although it is not certified organic. The woodland also extends to about 25 acres and is home to a wide variety of wildlife. Just beyond the property's boundary is the River Taw.


Mid Devon
The property is situated midway between the villages of Umberleigh and Chittlehamholt, within the beautiful and unspoilt countryside of the Taw Valley. With Exmoor and the North Devon coastline to the north and Dartmoor to the south, the property is well located to take advantage of all
that this area of Devon has to offer.
