SITUATION
Lower Corndon Farm and Meadow Cottage are set in a glorious rural position within the beautiful South Devon countryside close to popular town of Chagford . This impressive attached Georgian farmhouse offers extensive and versatile accommodation, combining period elegance with the practicalities of equestrian and smallholding living. The principal house extends to five/six bedrooms and three reception rooms, providing superb family accommodation with a wealth of character throughout. Period features blend seamlessly with light and spacious interiors, creating a welcoming home perfectly suited to both family life and entertaining. Complementing the main residence is the stunning detached stone barn conversion known as Meadow Cottage. Beautifully presented, this charming two-bedroom cottage offers flexible ancillary accommodation ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, holiday letting potential or additional income.
The property is set within acres of gently rolling grazing land, making it particularly appealing to equestrian purchasers or those seeking a lifestyle property. The grounds include stables, field shelters and excellent pasture with water supply, all enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.

The property is discretely attached and is entered via a welcoming entrance hall leading through to the inner hall. To the left is the impressive drawing room, featuring a substantial granite fireplace with wood-burning stove and French doors opening to the outside. Opposite lies the charming dining room, complete with a serving hatch through to the kitchen.
The traditional farmhouse kitchen is fitted in a classic wooden style and centred around an oil-fired AGA, with an adjoining conservatory breakfast room with French windows and enjoys views over the grounds. Also on the ground floor is a versatile study/bedroom six with ensuite bathroom, together with a spacious utility room, rear hallway, cloakroom and boot room.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom with a nursery or potential dressing room next door. There are two further double bedrooms and a single bedroom, all with vanity units and fitted wardrobes. A family bathroom completes the accommodation on this floor.

The gardens surrounding Lower Corndon Farm are predominantly laid to lawn, creating a delightful setting for the house and cottage alike.
