The most extraordinary farm with 259.63 acres has come to market near Okehampton.
Manor Farm in Meeth is remarkable because the land and farm buildings are immaculate.
It is a livestock, arable and equestrian farm with extensive range of farm buildings and perfectly maintained land which includes pasture, woodland and river frontage.
The farm was bought by the current owners ten years ago.
Eight new steel framed buildings were designed and constructed to exacting detail and flow perfectly together offering vast space to suit varying enterprises.
The farm has been re-fenced creating a paddock grazing system and a new hard-core road system has been installed throughout along with significant tree and hedge planting.
The farm was previously all in arable having grown maize, wheat, barley and root crops but the current owners have concentrated on breeding pedigree sheep, cattle and Clydesdale horses so the land is currently dedicated to providing high quality grassland.
Just to the west of the house is the traditional stone build courtyard with a workshop, three large loose boxes, further storage and a large garage building.
Beyond are the network of large modern farm buildings which offer a huge range of uses but currently allow for stock handling, grain storage, workshops and extensive machinery storage.
There is in excess of 50,000 sq ft of modern farm buildings, many of which have been installed by the current owners.
In addition at the west end of the farm buildings is a large hard-core yard that extends to approximately one acre in size.
Close to the house are a network of paddocks in a well thought out interconnecting system that allows easy rotation of the grassland and managing livestock.
All of the paddocks and fields beyond have underground water pipes supplying troughs along with hard standing around the gateways.
Beyond the fenced paddocks, the fields are accessed by a network of tracks and bordered with excellent hedging.
There is a 7.79 acre wood with a large pond that attracts an abundance of wildlife.
There is a further 2.67 acre copse to the north.
The current owners demolished the previous farmhouse and replaced it with a four bedroom farmhouse that has been built to the highest of specifications and comfort.
There is also a three bedroom bungalow.
Manor Farm is available as a whole or in two lots.
Lot 1 holds the farmhouse and 174.72 acres.
Lot 2 extends to 84.91 acres.
This further block of land is currently down to grass along with 15 acres of mixed mature woodland.
There is a well maintained access track that drops down to the land that has approximately 600 metres of frontage to the River Torridge.
Salmon and trout fishing on the river could be available by prior arrangement.
Manor Farm is on the market with Knight Frank and has a guide price of £3,500,000.
