We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Situation Lower Creason Farm is situated in an attractive and peaceful rural position within the parish of Mary Tavy, on the western side of Dartmoor in West Devon.
The property lies close to the hamlet of Horndon, approximately 2 miles north-east of Mary Tavy and within convenient reach of the historic market town of Tavistock, which provides a comprehensive range of shops, schools, professional services and other amenities.
The surrounding countryside is characterised by traditional farmland, woodland and open moorland.
The farm occupies a particularly scenic location close to the western fringes of Dartmoor National Park, providing ready access to the extensive recreational opportunities and distinctive landscape of the moor.
Despite its rural setting, the property benefits from good accessibility to the wider road network, with the A30 readily accessible at Sourton Cross, providing a direct connection to Exeter and the M5 motorway.
Description Lower Creason Farm occupies a peaceful rural position on the western fringes of Dartmoor National Park, enjoying far-reaching views across the National Park and its open moorland landscape.
Set within approximately 83 acres, the farm comprises a four-bedroom farmhouse, a range of traditional and modern farm buildings, good-quality pasture and areas of woodland, scrub, amenity and biodiversity land.
The farm is versatile, providing opportunities for a variety of farming enterprises, while being equally well suited as a lifestyle holding from which to enjoy its exceptional position and Dartmoor views.
Accommodation Lower Creason Farmhouse is a detached, two-storey dwelling of traditional construction beneath a slate roof, providing approximately 1,392 sq ft of accommodation.
The ground floor is approached through an entrance porch, opening into the principal living accommodation.
At the heart of the house is a sitting/dining room, with a separate living room incorporating a fireplace. The kitchen lies to the rear, while a separate office provides useful further space.
A ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level. On the first floor are four bedrooms arranged around a central landing.
Bedroom four benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom.
The house occupies an established and elevated position within the farmstead, with the traditional buildings, yards and farmland immediately surrounding it and views across the adjoining countryside towards the western fringes of Dartmoor.
The Farm Buildings The farmstead includes a useful range of traditional stone and modern agricultural buildings, arranged around a central yard which forms an attractive courtyard setting alongside the farmhouse.
The traditional buildings provide useful livestock and storage accommodation and, given their character and arrangement, may offer potential for alternative uses, subject to the necessary planning consents.
The larger modern buildings provide further accommodation for livestock, fodder, machinery and general agricultural storage.
The buildings are conveniently positioned at the heart of the holding, with good access to the surrounding land via the internal tracks and yards.
The Land The land extends to approximately 83 acres in all and comprises a diverse mixture of good-quality permanent pasture, rough grazing and woodland.
The pasture provides useful grazing and mowing ground in support of the current livestock enterprise, with fields divided by a mixture of traditional Devon banks, hedgerows and other established boundaries.
The land is interspersed with mature trees and areas of woodland, providing shelter for livestock as well as landscape, amenity and ecological value.
Beyond the more productive pasture are areas of rougher grazing and these areas naturally add considerably to the diversity of the holding and provide opportunities for wildlife habitat, conservation and biodiversity enhancement alongside continued agricultural use.
