Seclusion without isolation- A small country estate of great character comprising a large farmhouse, multiple ancillary buildings and approx. 18 acres of wildlife rich grassland, woodland, lakes and streams. The property gives a great feeling of space and tranquillity, yet is only 10 minutes drive from Tavistock (with its excellent schools) and 45 from Exeter with its extensive road, rail and air links. It also benefits from access to an indoor swimming pool, tennis court and other amenities shared with neighbouring properties (all of which are located to the rear of Bedford House and largely hidden from view).

Bedford House was constructed by the Duke of Bedford estate in the mid 1800s. It has been modernised in recent years to a very high standard including full underfloor heating, double glazing, high speed internet and the extensive use of limestone, slate, and oak. This, and the installation of log burning stoves has created a very spacious yet cosy family home retaining its original character. In brief, the main house is set over 4 floors with the upper 2 floors providing 4 en-suite bedrooms, a further bedroom, and a study as well as a large family bathroom. Reception rooms include a dining room, snug and professionally installed cinema room as well as a music room/studio and large South Facing Orangery. There is a spacious and recently re-fitted kitchen/family room opening onto a large West facing balcony, perfect for family barbeques whilst watching the dramatic sunsets the area is blessed with. Most of the rooms enjoy extensive countryside views, largely over the land within the curtilage of Bedford House. Although currently configured as a large single home (perfect for entertaining) the accommodation lends itself to multiple configurations including the possibility of using the lower ground floor as an independent one or two bedroom annex.

The outbuildings include a separate studio (with shower room), detached large office, a gym (with sauna and shower), 3 bay oak car port, and large stable/garage block (currently used as workshops and storage). The gravel driveway leads to parking for several cars.

As well as modernising the interior, the current owners have spent the past 15 years sensitively landscaping the extensive grounds to provide a wildlife rich habitat with endless possibilities for country walks. There are two large wildlife ponds but a particular feature is the two storey wooden cabin overlooking a spring-fed lake – an incredible hideaway to relax or entertain off grid in perfect seclusion. A particular feature of the grounds is a recently constructed walled garden of approximately a third of an acre. This has been seeded with wildlife friendly cottage garden plants and includes a large Victorian style greenhouse to support self sufficiency in vegetables and salad. It also has a fire pit and a decked area with 8 seater hot tub, allowing complete relaxation surrounded by nature.

Bedford House provides a rare opportunity to enjoy tranquil country living without the remoteness that is so often a trade off with large country properties.
