REF: DRC0753 WAYE FARM, 5r. CHAGFORD
Waye Farm is a traditional Dartmoor Farmstead with, at its core, a detached Grade II listed cross passage longhouse
believed to date from the 16th century with 17th and 19th century revisions and perhaps to have originated as a hall house.
Rich in period features, the house has been sensitively upgraded to provide a fine family home. All the principal rooms of
the house look southwards over the gardens and the land via generously sized Georgian style windows. In addition to the
farmhouse, the property includes the high specification 2 bedroom Three Hares Barn. There is ample parking provision in
separate areas for owners and guests.
There is an extensive range of useful outbuildings including granite built stables, 2 linhays, Fodder Barn and Workshop all
conveniently located in 2 groups on either side of the house. The gardens for both the house and the barn are informally
laid out for easy maintenance and beyond them the land is broadly level, laid to pasture with peaty free draining soil and
subdivided by modern stock fencing into easily managed individual enclosures. The total area approximates to 9.5 acres
Waye Farm constitutes a fine character Dartmoor Farm with an established and ongoing income from the luxury holiday
cottage, Three Hares Barn, let through local agent Helpful Holidays with bookings already in place for 2012. Full details
can be found at www.wayefarm.com and current bookings can be found at www.helpfulholidays.co.uk property A84.
Over the past year, the current owners have run a successful, and beautifully appointed B&B, in part of the farmhouse.
Connecting doors make this area completely self contained from the main part of the house allowing privacy for family and
house guests when required.
The picturesque old market town of Chagford lies deep in the Dartmoor National Park and is a superb location from which
to access the open spaces of the high moor as well as the wooded, pastoral landscape of the nearby Teign Valley. With a
thriving community, it has a comprehensive range of shops and other facilities including banks, inns, primary and
Montessori schools, medical, dental and veterinary facilities, churches and a garage. Despite the deeply rural atmosphere of
the town, the A30 dual carriageway is only approximately 5 miles away for easy access to the motorway and rail networks
as well as the cathedral city of Exeter where all major facilities can be found. There are good public transport links between
Chagford and Exeter, Newton Abbot and Okehampton. Local sporting facilities include clubs for cricket, football, bowls
and swimming as well as a golf course at the Bovey Castle Hotel near Moretonhampstead.
Location and Directions
Waye Farm is situated with two other ancient properties at the head of a short farm lane about 2 miles from Chagford, three
miles from the A30 dual carriageway and about 20 miles from the M5. Leave the A30 dual carriageway at Merrymeet
Junction and follow the A382 through Whiddon Down, turning left at the head of the village following signs to
Moretonhampstead. After 1.5 miles, at the foot of a long straight, turn right. Take the first turning to the right, at Monks
Withecombe, then turn right again at the next crossroads. The drive to to Waye Farm is on the right hand side after just
under half a mile. The entrance is now on the right
hand side, signed Waye Farm Deliveries.
