Burrough Cleave is approached through high twin stone pillars and electric double iron gates over a sweeping driveway leading to a gravelled forecourt with a turning circle, providing parking for multiple vehicles and giving access to the integral double garage. The part-walled formal garden, a particular feature of this property, offers extensive lawned areas with mature shrub beds and specimen trees and features well-maintained mature topiary, numerous seating areas, a garden pond and a large paved terrace which is ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining. The gardens enjoy far-reaching views over the property’s 28.58 acres of grazing and the beautiful countryside beyond. There is also a lake within the land, as well as areas of woodland; all of which provide a haven for local flora and fauna. The property has the benefit of a number of outbuildings including a detached stable block with six loose boxes and an L-shaped brick-built barn. The property also benefits from a large 51 ft. x 32 ft. outbuilding and two external stores, suitable for a wide variety of uses.

The small hamlet of New Buildings lies to the north-west of Crediton and comprises a pretty collection of thatched cottages and farmhouses in some of Mid Devon's most picturesque countryside. The well-regarded village of Sandford, approximately 2.8 miles away, has a good range of amenities including a village hall, community shop, Post Office, historic church, pre-school, popular primary school and two pubs. The nearby busy market town of Crediton offers a wider range of amenities including a farmers’ market, supermarkets, local shops, a GP surgery, secondary schooling and a railway station on the Tarka Line. The historic university and cathedral city of Exeter provides a wide range of facilities including excellent shopping, dining, cultural, sporting and recreational pursuits, as well as mainline railway stations on the Waterloo and Paddington lines. Transport links are good: Copplestone station provides services to central London in less than three hours, whilst Exeter International Airport has a wide range of domestic and European flights.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
