Buckland-in-the-Moor is a small village within Dartmoor National Park known for its picturesque cottages, fine towered church and the ten commandments stones on the Beacon. The town of Ashburton lies a little over two miles to the south and has an excellent range of interesting shops and amenities, and is where the A38 can be accessed for Exeter, Totnes and Plymouth.
This most appealing property forms part of Buckland Hall which was built in 1927 as the village hall and ballroom then subsequently run as a hotel for many years before being converted in the early 1990's to six individual homes.
Number 4 has been the subject of a high-end refurbishment in recent years (including electrics, plumbing and insulation) and offers characterful accommodation all on one level with access from either side of the building. The rooms have wide wood-board floors and the large open-plan living space/kitchen features an impressive fireplace with cosy wood burner and a stylish range of kitchen units with polished granite work tops. The two bedrooms have lofty ceilings with mezzanines and contemporary en-suites.
Outside, there is a delightful garden with woodland outlook accessed from the living area plus the use of the shared communal grounds which connect to moorland forest reaching down to the valley of the River Dart. The walking country to be found on the doorstep is truly outstanding, with the open moor at nearby Buckland Beacon just five minutes away, and the picturesque river Dart a delightful twenty minute walk via the woodland carriage tracks.
