Great Wadham represents a most attractive agricultural holding enjoying a delightful rural position with fine countryside views. The property has been in the ownership of the current vendors family for over 55 years and this sale thereby affords prospective purchasers a rare opportunity to acquire an unspoilt and adaptable holding, originally operated as a traditional dairy farm although in more recent years utilised primarily for the grazing of cattle, sheep and fodder production.
The holding is centered upon a substantial detached Grade II listed Devon longhouse, believed to date originally from the early 1600’s, with later 19th and 20th century alterations. The farmhouse, which is subject to an agricultural occupancy condition, provides spacious six bedroomed accommodation and despite now requiring complete renovation undoubtedly offers the potential to create a superb country residence enjoying an outstanding rural setting. An extensive range of adaptable traditional and modern farm buildings may afford potential, subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents, for further enlargement of the house or for conversion to residential, commercial, holiday or other ancillary uses, whilst also appealing to those prospective purchasers with agricultural interests.
The farmstead enjoys an elevated position overlooking a predominantly wooded valley, well positioned within its own agricultural land which principally comprises traditional pasture sloping down to the pretty Crooked Oak River. An attractive parcel of mixed deciduous woodland is situated on the opposite side of the valley. The land may be well suited to a variety of agricultural, conservation, sporting or other amenity uses. Great Wadham extends in total to about 91.42 Acres (37 Ha) and is offered for sale as a whole, or in two lots as described within these sale particulars.
Note: A further pasture paddock, shown coloured yellow on the identification plan, may also be available by negotiation.
Accessed from the quiet council road over a private entrance drive, Great Wadham occupies an elevated and readily accessible rural position lying to the south of the Exmoor National Park between South Molton and Tiverton. The property occupies an outstanding rural position enjoying superb countryside views situated close to the pretty and historic village of Knowstone which boasts the renowned Masons Arms, a Michelin star rated Inn and Restaurant.
Enjoying convenient access to the A361 North Devon Link Road, the bustling market town of South Molton to the north west and Tiverton to the south east are both easily accessible, providing a good range of everyday shops, banks, schools, restaurants, public houses, health centres, library and sporting facilities. The A361 also provides quick access to the M5 motorway (Junction 27), with mainline Intercity rail links available at Tiverton Parkway. International Airports are available at Exeter and Bristol.
The property is approached from the council road over a private double gated entrance drive, the initial part of which is shared with the neighbouring property known as Cops End. A large mainly lawned garden adjoins to the front of the farmhouse, with shrub borders and a small copse area containing mature conifers.
Adjoining the farmhouse to the west is a two-storey Traditional Building of cob, stone and block construction beneath a slate roof. The ground floor comprises a workshop area with a rear external staircase leading to the large loft over. This part may have the potential to create further accommodation or a self-contained annexe, subject to obtaining any necessary planning/listed building consent. Back to listing
