Description
Middle Stoke House is a south facing, elevated former farmhouse enjoying delightful rural views over the River Dart Valley and open moorland. Believed to have Victorian/Edwardian origins, the house itself benefits from superb proportions throughout including high ceilings, pretty windows, square rooms and feature fireplaces.
Approached by a shared drive and then onto its own private gated driveway with parking, Middle Stoke House is incredibly inviting with an attractive veranda covering the rear door which in turn opens up into a wonderful entrance hall which flows through the house and out to the south facing garden. - perfect for welcoming guests. There is an excellent feel throughout the house with all three reception rooms benefiting from feature fireplaces and long distant views. In particular the sitting room and dining room, both of which are south facing and look out over the garden. The double aspect kitchen/breakfast room enjoys a different view, overlooking one of the paddocks and front drive. The kitchen itself houses a wide selection of solid wood base and drawer units centred around a Watson rayburn. There is ample space for a breakfast table creating a lovely area for family life or entertaining.
The pretty staircase rises to the generous first floor landing where there is a window that frames the magnificent views perfectly. Accommodation on the first floor includes five bedrooms in total, all of which enjoy stunning rural views over the River Dart Valley or over the delightful gardens and paddocks. To complete the accommodation there is a family bathroom and a further separate shower room.
Gardens and Grounds
A particular feature to Middle Stoke House is the generous grounds and south facing garden that accompany it. The gardens wrap around the property which are mostly laid to lawn with fine views over Dartmoor National Park. A pretty post and rail fence separates the garden to one of two paddocks, with a further gently sloped paddock above. In all, the gardens and grounds at Middle Stoke House totals just over 4 acres.
Location
Middle Stoke House is located just outside the enchanting and favoured village of Holne. Holne offers an abundance of outdoor recreational pursuits and is a superb place for walkers and riders with a tea room, shop, traditional country pub, meeting hall and church.
The River Dart provides a wonderful place for fishing and kayaking, plus year round riverside walks and picnics. Nearby, Ashburton and Buckfastleigh offer shopping facilities, primary and secondary education and easy access to the A38 Devon Expressway with direct links to Plymouth, Exeter and beyond.
Amidst some of the most magnificent scenery in Devon, Middle Stoke House is situated within the Dartmoor National Park boasting a stunning southerly position.
