Description
This magnificent Grade I Listed Devon Barton, dating back to 1120, is a unique and historic property nestled in a scenic valley. The main house, with its sympathetically preserved original features, is set amidst beautifully curated gardens, a lake, and grounds. The property also includes a 15th-century collection of buildings called The Ranges, a separate gatehouse, two holiday cottages, a garage outbuilding, and a glasshouse. The main house boasts a range of original features, including beams, flagstone floors, ancient doors, and mullion windows, and is thought to have been a defended farmstead and a stopping point for pilgrims traveling to Santiago de Compostela. The property has been meticulously restored over the years by English Heritage and previous owners, and is now a wonderful home with plenty of character and charm.
