Between Lustleigh and Moretonhampstead, TQ13 9SG

Occupying a lovely rural hamlet setting, One North Harton Cottages is an extremely characterful former farmhouse with origins dating back to the 17th/early 18th century.

A Grade II listed building, it is attached at right-angles on the north-west corner to another dwelling which forms part of the small cluster of properties that make up North Harton - set back from the lane via a shared track.

The accommodation includes two reception rooms each with cosy wood-burners and the central kitchen-diner has an ESSE multi-fuel stove for cooking and hot water.

The ground floor has attractively tiled floors and some rooms feature exposed woodwork. There are four first floor bedrooms, one with recently installed shower room and a ground floor bathroom.

Outside, adjoining the front and side of the cottage is a pretty south-facing cottage garden - a tranquil space for relaxation, whilst a little further along the track lies a further garden/orchard with greenhouse and plenty of space for growing vegetables or keeping a few chickens.

Towards the upper end of the orchard stands an excellent stone/block-built outbuilding with workshop and studio-style space. The gardens are a haven for Dartmoor birdlife and wildlife.

North Harton is situated around 2.5 miles north-east of Lustleigh Village and close to Lustleigh Cleave with scenic walks on the very doorstep.

Lustleigh, arguably Dartmoor's prettiest village, has a shop/post office, pub, tea rooms, meeting hall, pre-school and church.

The towns of Moretonhampstead and Bovey Tracey are each around 15 minutes' drive and offer a selection of everyday shops and amenities including primary schools, doctor's surgeries, a Co-op store in Moretonhampstead and a Lidl supermarket in Bovey Tracey.

One North Harton Cottages has been a well-loved family home for our vendor clients for almost 20 years and we would encourage a physical viewing in order to appreciate the ambience of this one-off historic Dartmoor dwelling.
