METHOD OF SALE The property will be offered for sale by Online Traditional Auction (unless sold prior.) The auction end date is Wednesday 15th November at 6pm. The vendor reserves the right to withdraw or alter the property for sale prior to the auction end date. The property can be accessed via our website stags.co.uk - Online Property & Land Auctions.
SITUATION The land is located in a sheltered position on the south eastern edge of the popular village of Brentor, between the Village Hall and the former railway station, in an excellent area for walking and outriding. It lies within, and enjoys, stunning views over Dartmoor National Park sitting on its western edge, within easy reach of the good range of village amenities in nearby Mary Tavy. These include a village store and post office, a cafe, and some excellent pubs and local inns. The land lies approximately 190 metres above sea level and is classified as Grade 3 on the Agricultural Land Classification Maps.
DESCRIPTION The land comprises three fields that very gently slope to the south east, together with a steel framed barn (60' x 30' with a concrete floor) with a lean-to (45' x 30'), a concreted yard area, a stream and an attractive wildlife pond. There are wonderful views over West Blackdown Moor. The land has been well farmed and is in excellent condition. It is bordered by mature stockproof hedges which provide good shade and shelter. The land would ideally suit horse or livestock grazing, or alternatively a number of amenity or tourist uses perhaps including camping under the 60 Day Permitted Development Planning rules. It lies in a very peaceful position with the main sound being bird song and the gurgling stream that runs through part of the field.
SERVICES The land is naturally watered from the stream that runs through the middle of the land. There is also a pond near the southern part of the land. An overhead electric line crosses the property.
WAYLEAVES AND RIGHTS OF WAY The land is sold subject to, and with the benefit of any wayleave agreements in respect of electricity or telephone equipment crossing the property, together with any restrictive covenants or public or private rights of way. There are no public rights of way shown to affect the property, on the Ordnance Survey plan. The land benefits from an unregistered prescriptive right of way over the narrow lane to the west.
