Whitton and Laing, the Experts in Property estate agency on Queen Street in Exeter, is pleased to offer for sale a period cottage with five acres, outbuildings, and enormous potential in a fabulous country location around four miles from the market town of Tiverton. 

This is a wonderful and very rare opportunity to purchase a property in such a unique location and with so much scope for a variety of uses and additional enhancement. In its current format, it comes complete with 24 kennels and could easily become a canine boarding destination, but its location is such that complete redevelopment is also a possibility. The scope here is immense and so it will appeal to a variety of buyers. 

The delightful, detached period cottage is believed to be around 300 years old and retains many original features. Inside is a hall, ground floor bedroom and bathroom along with a large farmhouse style kitchen with exposed beams, a dining area enjoying views over the garden, a double aspect sitting room, a galleried landing and two lovely bedrooms with a shower room on the first floor. The cottage has oil fired central heating and is served by a private water supply and drainage. 

The cottage sits in over five acres of gardens, paddocks and fields in a superb, tranquil spot surrounded by arable farmland. Life on a small ornamental pond can be observed from the nearby summerhouse and the paddocks, fields and secure grass runs are substantially fenced. There is an extensive parking area and carport, which provides access to the main boarding kennel block, which contains 14 kennels – six double and eight single units of block bases with galvanised mesh partitions and doors, each complemented by raised sleeping quarters, generous runs and heated lamps to provide comfort to the animals. In addition, there is a storeroom and part covered exercise yard.  

A further block contains 10 kennels along with an isolation pen, kitchen and a part covered exercise yard. There is also a single storey building with the opportunity for enhancement.  

The two hamlets of Ash Thomas and Brithem Bottom are nearby and the lively village of Halberton with its primary school, farm shop and tea rooms, pub and thriving village hall is just over a mile away. 

 In summary, this is a delightful property together with land and outbuildings including extensive kennelling, all of which has scope for a variety of uses and possible change, subject to the relevant consents. Given its fantastic location and wonderful countryside views all around, the property offers so much in terms of scope – there are plenty of possibilities – and this is a rare and incredible opportunity not to be missed.
