Linscott Farm is an attractive Dartmoor farmhouse which has been renovated to an exceptional standard throughout. The house is complemented by a selection of traditional outbuildings, which are set around a delightful courtyard at the back of the house where there is ample space for parking. The quality of the renovation is immediately noticeable upon entry to the house, as is the abundance of natural light through the newly installed Accoya double glazed sash windows and excellent flow in the layout.

The principal rooms are all on the south side of the house. The kitchen/breakfast room has superb appliances including an AGA, Lacanche range and steam oven. Double doors from the kitchen lead to the stone terrace and lawn garden to the front. Either side of the entrance hall is a sitting room featuring a stunning fireplace with a Clearview wood burner, oak floors and panelling, and a dining room. To the rear of the ground floor are a large plant room housing the bio-mass boiler, a boot room, utility room and cloakroom. There is also a delightful snug with access to the rear courtyard, with another Clearview wood burner and oak floors.

Also on the ground floor, with independent access, is the annexe. Finished to the same standards as the rest of the house, this provides single storey ancillary accommodation with a fully fitted kitchen, sitting room with new wood burner, bedroom and bathroom.

On the first floor there are five beautifully appointed bedrooms, all of them en suite which have been renovated with Fired Earth, Mandarin Stone and Lefoy Brooks or Perrin and Rowe fittings and feature limestone or marble tiles. The three bedrooms on the south side of house all have superb views.

Linscott Barn
On one side of the rear courtyard is Linscott Barn which is ideal for holiday letting or additional guest accommodation. The layout is predominantly open plan with a large Neptune kitchen/dining/sitting room in the centre with original parquet pitched pine flooring from the dining and living room in the main house, and a bedroom with en suite shower room featuring Mandarin stone tiles, pedestal sink and under floor heating. A new LPG boiler has been installed.

Outbuildings
The traditional Victorian barns, currently used for storage, offer an opportunity for conversion subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents. There is currently planning permission in place to create a second holiday letting unit. Please contact the agents for more information.

Immediately behind the traditional barns and with separate access from the road, is a modern barn housing the American style stables with nine boxes, as well as a spacious tack room and covered wash area with hot water. The barn opens at both ends with easy access to the land and the road for the exceptional riding out in the immediate area. Next to the barn is a 120ft x 60 ft manège.

Further outbuildings include additional stabling with water connected, and a garage building/machinery store. Attached to this building is a car port.

Garden and grounds
Immediately in front of the house is a stone terrace, with access from the kitchen/breakfast room, with majestic views over the surrounding countryside. A network of paths leads past the productive kitchen garden and leads up to the newly constructed swimming pond with glorious views over the house, gardens and rolling hills of Dartmoor beyond. The orchard features a Black-down oak Shepherds Hut, with electric and water installed as well as a wood burner and double-glazed windows and doors. The Shepherds Hut is available by separate negotiation.

The agricultural land consists of five paddocks to the north and west of the house, which slope upwards with breath-taking westerly views from the high point looking out over Dartmoor National Park.

The land extends to about 77 acres in total, most of which is laid to pasture with some areas of woodland, ideal for those with equestrian requirements.

Linscott Farm is situated in a peaceful position near Chagford, a picturesque and popular market town, surrounded by rolling hills and beautiful countryside. The property sits on the edge of its land which slopes up to the north and east, with outstanding views from the top. The popular and sought-after town of Chagford is about four miles from Linscott Farm and has previously been voted as one of the best rural places to live in Britain by The Sunday Times. It boasts a wide range of speciality shops including a library, butcher, wine shop, bakery, artisan bakers, organic food shop, weekly market, and delicatessen as well as various restaurants, cafes and four pubs. There is an excellent primary school, Montessori school and an outdoor river-fed community swimming pool. Dartmoor National Park
