4 bed farmhouse for sale

Goodameavy, Roborough, Plymouth PL6

An interesting opportunity to purchase a Grade II listed, four bedroom Dartmoor farmhouse with an attached two bedroom annex. Situated at Goodameavy, a small historical hamlet with links back to the Domesday book of 1086, this property was part of an original farm complex and is set within a 17th century cobbled courtyard. The house is in need of some renovation throughout but does benefit from an oil central heating system and many original features including exposed stone work, wooden doors and roof trusses.

The main hub of the home is the kitchen/dining/living room also known as 'The Great Hall' - this impressive room has 36' high vaulted ceilings with a mezzanine landing area which is fronted by contemporary glass panelling and accessed by a pull down ladder. To the other end of this former barn, is a kitchen area with matching island and oil fired Aga, quirky curved steps lead down through to an equally impressive sitting room with three windows overlooking the courtyard and granite arched fireplaces and recesses. There are two additional reception rooms plus a utility room and downstairs shower room. Upstairs is the family bathroom and four bedrooms, two of which have access out to the rear garden.

Attached to the property is a two bedroom, two storey annex which has its own entrance - ideal for a relative or as a possible income stream, having been previously rented out.

The gardens at the rear are mainly laid to lawn with pleasant views over Dartmoor. To the side of the farmhouse are landscaped architectural gardens with slate paved terraces and a small stream in the wetter months. There is plenty of parking on the courtyard and also in front of the barn/garage for the property, which is located just away from the main house. This is a useful storage space.
