SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION
An increasingly rare opportunity to purchase a three-bedroom detached barn conversion in the folds of rural west Devon and situated within a small hamlet near the iconic landmark ‘church on the hill’ of St Michael de Rupe.
Completed in 2006 by a reputable local builder the Barn has been converted to high standard and is fully insulated. You enter via five bar gate into a generous graveled driveway with parking for multiple vehicles. The property stands surrounded by its own land, bordered by stone walls, trees and mature hedges which provide a valuable sense of privacy.
The accommodation is unique and briefly comprises; open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, three bedrooms, utility and two bathrooms. On the ground floor you find a large, open-plan room; the kitchen is separated by a useful island and boasts plentiful storage and built in appliances as well as a separate utility room. The living and dining space is charming in character and offers vaulted ceilings and beams. You will also find, from a separate hall, two double bedrooms and a generous family bathroom complete with walk in shower and separate bath. Upstairs is a large landing, which could make an ideal space for working from home. A further bedroom includes an en-suite as well as plenty of eaves storage.
To the rear of the property you will find a good sized garden - which you can access from the drive, or via kitchen door or living room patio doors. Directly from the living room is a south-facing paved patio area, perfect for enjoying the sunshine and al-fresco dining. Steps lead to the lawned garden which is surrounded by mature plants and hedges. A plastic shed can be found at the top of the garden which houses the private water system. Two further wooden structures are located at the rear of the property - one a handy garden shed, the other a studio, which had been nicely converted into an office complete with power and lighting.
Tavistock is a thriving market town, fantastic for walking, cycling, and riding. This vibrant and friendly town hosts a wealth of restaurants and cafes selling locally produced food. Enjoy some shopping with the vast range of local independent shops, the pannier market and award-winning farmers’ market.

The Meadows located in the centre of the town provides a children’s play area, a bandstand, a sensory garden, tennis courts, bowling club and plenty of open space.
Indeed, Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival. Plymouth is only 15 miles away with fast Inter City rail links to London, Bristol, and the North. There are also ferry services to Roscoff, Brittany and Santander, Northern Spain.
