An impressive family home nestled within a charming hamlet overlooking the stunning Moorland. EPC Band F.
Situation - The property is surrounded by the beautiful Dartmoor countryside with undulating landscapes, yet is easily accessible to the towns of Ashburton and Buckfastleigh. The village of Scorriton has a traditional pub which is a short stroll away and a well-supported Village Hall. The nearby village of Holne features a further public house as well as a well-stocked village shop.
The towns of Ashburton and Buckfastleigh each provide a useful range of everyday shops and amenities. There are free school buses available from the village to local primary and secondary schools / college.
