Heathfield, Tavistock Tavistock is a thriving market town adjoining the western edge of the Dartmoor National Park. Amenities include a hospital, bustling Pannier Market and a full range of schools both State and Private. Indeed Tavistock can claim to have everything adding up to a quality of life which would be hard to rival.
Property Detached family home in a rural setting surrounded by countryside with its own paddock, making it ideal for those with an equestrian or smallholding interest. The property stands in its own grounds of approaching two acres, in a very private, secluded rural setting yet within easy and convenient reach of Tavistock. The current owners installed solar pv panels in 2012 which offset some of the utility costs supplying both house and annex. The main house has four bedrooms and plenty of ground floor accommodation including a farmhouse kitchen making for a sociable entertaining space. A separate self-contained annex which was extensively extended and refurbished in 2009, provides independent living space or the potential to use as a holiday or rental property subject to any necessary planning consents.

External The property is surrounded by open countryside and is approached via a gravel driveway sweeping in front of the main house and opening to the rear giving access to a substantial gravel parking/ turning area. There is an open lawn to the front overlooking the paddock and an enclosed walled courtyard garden offering a pleasant sheltered sitting area taking advantage of the evening sun.
The grounds extend to approaching two acres and are currently used as a small holding with two paddocks professionally stock fenced in 2010 and gated with the current owners keeping sheep and pigs. There is an open grassed area between the two paddocks that could provide further grazing. To the rear of the main house there is an outhouse, providing useful storage and housing the oil fired central heating boiler. There is an aluminium shed and polytunnel.

There is a cesspit and private drainage and a bore hole to supply water to both the house and annex. The owners installed an oil fired system in 2013 supplying hot water and central heating and including a 10001 oil tank.
