Returning to the ground floor, the kitchen also provides access to an additional wing, which can function as a self-contained unit with its own private entrance and staircase. This area incorporates a utility room, cloakroom and boot room, with stairs leading to three further bedrooms and a shower room, offering excellent potential for multi-generational living or guest accommodation.

Adjoining the farmhouse, Lisburne Barn is a well-considered barn conversion providing high-quality ancillary accommodation. The ground floor is arranged in an open-plan format, combining kitchen, dining and living areas to create a generous and sociable space, centred around a wood-burning stove.

The moorland village of South Brent stands in the valley of the River Avon under the southern foothills of Dartmoor National Park and on the northern edge of the lovely South Hams, fifteen miles from the centre of Plymouth.

The village is one with a strong community with three churches, one of which dates back to Norman times, a primary school and a wide variety of shops. There are well-regarded community colleges at Totnes and Ivybridge, approximately eight and five miles distant respectively, and both towns offer a comprehensive range of facilities for the wider community. Some of the finest beaches on the south coast, along with the South West Coast Path, are all within easy reach.

Situated just off the A38 Expressway, the village is well placed for quick access to Plymouth, Torbay and Exeter for which there are regular bus services. Rail services can be found at Ivybridge, approximately five miles distant, offering services to Plymouth, Totnes, Newton Abbot, Exeter St David's and on to Bristol, Cardiff and London.
