Property description
SUMMARY Bowden Farm occupies an absolutely stunning position with fabulous unspoilt panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and moorland. It is situated within the Dartmoor National Park, with its rolling countryside and granite tors and benefits from instant access to many outdoor leisure and sporting activities.
The property is superbly situated for Equestrian activities with the ability to ride straight out on the open moor avoiding roads if desired. The land is gently sloping pasture which offers plenty of grass for a summer hay/haylage cut, enabling self-sufficiency for horse or livestock feed through the winter. The acreage is perfect for those with horses. The stable yard currently offers stabling/tack room and feed house for two horses.
Whilst there are no near neighbours and privacy is assured Bowden Farm is only a quarter of a mile walk from the historic village of Widecombe-in-the-Moor. From here the Widecombe-in-the-Moor to Bovey Tracey road allows quick access to the A38 and routes to Plymouth, Exeter and the M5 beyond. The village holds its famous annual fair and although Tom Pearce might not be there in attendance, there is every chance you will see a grey mare. There are also two cafes, a shop and two very popular public houses. There is a well respected primary school and Widecombe Church which is known as the Cathedral of the Moor is worthy of a visit.
LAND Adjoining the property is a good size level lawned area partly enclosed by stone walling and benefiting from open countryside and moorland views. To the side of the property is a parking area for several vehicles, a log shed and also a large storage shed. Oil storage tank. External water is available from the shed and in the front garden. To the rear of the property are two large gently sloping meadow fields suitable for grazing with water trough. Leading off the front garden through a gate is the vegetable garden with raised beds and the fenced chicken run with coop. Spectacular views down to the valley and up to the Tors.
Stabling - The stable yard currently offers stabling/tack room and feed store for two horses.
A short walk of approximately 400m along the adjacent bridleway gives access onto the open moorland for excellent riding and walking.
