Description
4 The Village is attractively positioned in the heart of the peaceful village of Holne within Dartmoor National Park, surrounded by picturesque countryside. The village has a shop/ tea rooms, traditional country pub, meeting hall and church.
The dramatic landscape and wide open spaces of the moor are within walking distance and form a scenic backdrop to the village. Whilst enjoying the many benefits of rural living, Holne is very accessible, with the A38 (for Exeter and Plymouth) little more than a ten minute drive, as is the popular town of Ashburton where there is a very good range of shops and facilities. The larger towns of Totnes and Newton Abbot take just twenty minutes by car and each have mainline railway stations.
4 The Village is a characterful Grade II listed property, part of a small row of traditional village cottages dating from the eighteenth century. The accommodation has been skilfully extended and provides three double bedrooms, a charming living room with cosy wood-burner and a modern kitchen-dining room with large windows and glazed doors connecting to the garden. There is a loft area that may have potential for conversion, subject to the required consents.
The garden is a real feature and has been attractively landscaped with a large paved terraced seating/entertaining area, lawn with extremely well stocked and colourful shrubbery/flower beds, a vegetable/herb garden and a quality Summerhouse/garden office building. There is a rear access drive with parking for a couple of cars and there are a number of useful sheds/stores.
DIRECTIONS From Ashburton, take the road signposted for the River Dart Country Park and proceed for approximately 2.5 miles. Take the left hand turning signposted for Holne. Continue along this road and follow the signs for the village centre. On reaching the crossroads turn right and 4 The Village will be found on the right hand side.
