The home, in the agent’s words

  • Fine & Country
Read the full agent description

For those dreaming of a move to the country, Higher Youlton offers far more than a substantial family home. Set within approximately 11 acres and registered as a smallholding, the property combines generous five-bedroom accommodation with grazing land, extensive outbuildings and a wonderfully private rural setting.

Approached via a long driveway and enjoying wide-reaching views across the surrounding countryside towards Dartmoor, the farmhouse has a real sense of space and seclusion. Inside, the accommodation is both comfortable and practical, with a layout well suited to family life and those looking to embrace a more rural way of living.

STEP INSIDE

The ground floor includes a spacious sitting room and separate family room, giving flexibility for both everyday living and entertaining. A study provides useful space for home working, while the kitchen/dining room forms a natural hub of the house, complemented by a utility room and boot room which are particularly well suited to country life.

The bathroom accommodation is arranged over both floors, with two bathrooms serving the five bedrooms upstairs and a further shower room located off the ground floor hallway. This gives the house useful flexibility for family life and visiting guests, while many of the bedrooms enjoy attractive views over the surrounding land, reinforcing the strong connection between the house and its setting.

STEP OUTSIDE

This is where Higher Youlton really sets itself apart.

The grounds extend to approximately 11 acres, understood to include around 9 acres of grazing land together with gardens surrounding the house. The property is registered as a smallholding, making it especially appealing to those looking to keep animals, establish a hobby farm or simply enjoy the freedom and privacy that comes with owning a meaningful parcel of land.

The acreage may also appeal to equestrian buyers, while the extensive outbuildings add a further dimension to the property. Two substantial barns are complemented by workshop, garage and storage space, providing excellent scope for machinery, vehicles, hobbies or a home-based enterprise, subject to any necessary consents.

For buyers seeking a property that can adapt to a wide range of rural lifestyles, this combination of land, buildings and family accommodation is a significant advantage. Whether the aim is to keep livestock, develop a small-scale rural enterprise, store classic cars or simply enjoy additional space, Higher Youlton offers genuine versatility.

Closer to the house, the gardens provide a more sheltered setting in which to relax and entertain, while the wider land opens out to take full advantage of the far-reaching countryside views.

The property further benefits from fibre broadband, mains water, septic tank drainage and oil-fired heating.
