2 bed barn conversion for sale

Week, Tavistock PL19

A beautifully converted sturdy stone barn on the former 7th Duke of Bedford's model farm, built between 1842 and 1844 on land with the place name Week, having documented history back to the 13th Century … offering character, countryside and exceptional communal facilities near Brentor.

“Remember to raise a cup to the Duchess of Bedford when enjoying her creation of the ritual for afternoon tea”.

A beautiful Grade II listed two bedroom barn conversion on a small private complex at Week, close to Tavistock and Dartmoor National Park. Converted in 2005, this characterful property has been finished to an excellent standard and provides open plan living whilst still retaining a cosy feel, with a mixture of contemporary and traditional touches including exposed beams, stone walls and oak flooring. The development boasts some incredible amenities, perfect for a relaxing Devon lifestyle - a stunning heated swimming pool with sauna and gym equipment, plus a tennis court. There are plenty of nearby country walks too, with the traditional market town of Tavistock just a short drive away.

You enter the property into a hallway, with a useful utility/boot room to the right hand side with worktops and coat hooks. The hallway leads in to an impressive open plan living area which is the heart of the home and has exposed beams and roof lights allowing for plenty of light. There is a good size dining area adjacent to the kitchen, which has a built in fridge, oven and dishwasher plus granite worktops. Several steps lead up to a lounge and study area, with a log burner. There is also the benefit of built in cupboards underneath the study area for additional storage. At the rear of the barn are two double bedrooms, with the master bedroom having an en-suite shower room. In addition to this is the family bathroom with a modern white suite.

Externally is a good size enclosed garden with an entertaining area close to the barn. The garden is gently sloped and mostly laid to lawn, bordered by a colourful array shrubs and plants. There are some pleasant views over the valley to the side and a gate at the rear leads towards the double garage which is situated in a block. The development has a real sense of community and includes use of a tennis court, heated swimming pool with sauna, jacuzzi and a gym area. There is also a possibility for some equestrian use too with nearby stables and sand school.
