A spectacular Grade II Listed 5 double bedroom property with a substantial amount of land, well kept barns for development as well as a large detached workshop with business offices.

Situation - Higher Bowcombe Farm is located just on the edge of Ugborough village, a unique South Hams village set around a central square and offering excellent facilities including 2 public houses, primary school and a large church dating back to 1121. Ugborough is only minutes from the A38 Devon Expressway providing easy access to both Plymouth and Exeter and main motorway connections.

Description - A stunning Grade II Listed country house with accommodation arranged over 3 floors and set within 22 acres of private land. The property benefits from 4-5 stone barns that could be developed further to create an income or used for additional recreational accommodation for the house. There is also the added advantage of an extensive detached workshop with professional offices installed.

Accommodation - The property is approached via a private sweeping driveway with steps up to the main front door, a magnificent affair with stone pillars. The downstairs accommodation is exceptionally light and airy with a cosy sitting room, formal dining room and additional snug or family room. The owners have created a wonderful kitchen / breakfast room that expresses the originality of the property with exposed wooden beams and an oversized stone fire-place with lintel above. There is an excellent adjoining pantry with access to outside. Also the former meat room has been converted into a large utility room. Downstairs WC.

Upstairs there are 2 further spacious floors with the master bedroom suite on the 1st floor boasting a fabulous dressing room and large en-suite bathroom. A 2nd en-suite bedroom on this floor also enjoys the southernly aspect from the front of the property with a green country landscape. The 2nd floor offers 3 further double bedrooms and an impressive family bathroom with a roll-top cast iron bath and separate shower. Bedroom 6 could be an additional en-suite 'Jack & Jill' bathroom to Bedrooms 3 & 4.

Outside & Buildings - There are multiple options for use of the outbuildings with 4 or 5 stone barns with newly fitted slate roofs one of which has been converted into a 'party' / entertaining barn with 2 storeys. What a wonderful boutique wedding venue this could be. There is also a large workshop adjoining the main house and a large detached workshop with professional offices and relevant facilities.

Higher Bowcombe Farm offers 22 acres of land, 18 of which could be used for cattle as well as manicured lawns, a children's play area with soft surround and sunny decked terrace.

Services - Oil fired central heating throughout the property with underfloor heating installed in the kitchen areas. Private water supply and private drainage. Mains electricity.
