Whether utilised as two independent homes for extended family, as a home with ancillary accommodation for holiday letting or income potential, or reconfigured into one substantial residence (subject to any necessary consents), Harbourne Valley Farm offers a lifestyle opportunity rarely found in such a well-connected countryside setting. There is also potential opportunity to acquire additional adjoining land, further enhancing the appeal for those seeking a smallholding, equestrian potential or simply greater privacy and space. Both homes enjoy their own unique charm and atmosphere, creating a wonderful balance between period character and modern country living in one of the South Hams’ most desirable village settings. SELLERS INSIGHT “When we found Harbourne Valley Farm, we knew almost immediately that it was something incredibly special. We had spent over a year searching for the right setup for ourselves and my parents, but everything we viewed seemed to offer a lovely main house with only a very small annexe attached. What we really wanted was two proper homes — equal in size, quality and comfort — where we could all enjoy independence whilst still being close enough to support one another. That proved surprisingly difficult to find, until we arrived here. Moving from London, we were searching for a completely different pace of life — the ‘good life’ people dream about. We wanted space, countryside, nature and somewhere our son could grow up surrounded by the outdoors. Watching him explore the land, enjoy the wildlife and simply have the freedom to be outside has been incredibly special for us as a family. Of course, we wanted views too — who doesn’t? But equally, we didn’t want to feel completely isolated. Harbourne Valley Farm somehow manages to strike the perfect balance. You feel wonderfully private and immersed in the countryside, without feeling cut off from the world. There’s such a peaceful atmosphere here and a real sense of quiet enjoyment. Even though the property is conveniently positioned for easy access in and out of Totnes and the surrounding area, once you are within the grounds it feels remarkably secluded and calm. We absolutely love being just five minutes from Totnes. It’s such a vibrant and spirited town with so much character. My parents especially love being close to the Dartington Trust — they are members there and spend so much time enjoying the grounds, café and art programmes. Having that nearby has become a huge part of their lifestyle here. The setup of the homes has worked brilliantly for us. We each have our own space and independence because the properties are detached, yet we are close enough to help one another whenever needed. It has been the perfect multigenerational arrangement. The privacy here is also something we’ve always appreciated. The electric gates and long driveway create such a wonderful sense of arrival and security. You never have people passing your front door, and once you’re home, you really do feel tucked away in your own peaceful world. This home has given us exactly the lifestyle we hoped for when we left London — space, freedom, nature, family connection and a sense of calm that is very hard to leave behind.” STEP INSIDE THE FARM HOUSE The original farm house sits proudly in front of the barn, overlooking an attractive garden and adjoining open farmers’ fields, immediately capturing the quintessential charm of an English country home. Constructed from beautiful rendered stone and dating back over 200 years, the farm house enjoys an unmistakably picturesque appearance, perfectly in keeping with its idyllic South Hams surroundings. A welcoming entrance porch opens into the heart of the home, where the farm house’s warmth and character are immediately apparent. The principal reception room centres around a striking dual-sided fireplace set within a painted exposed stone wall, creating a natural focal point enjoyed from both the main sitting room and the adjoining snug or reading room beyond. These connected spaces offer a cosy yet sociable atmosphere, ideal for quieter evenings or relaxed entertaining, while the surrounding windows frame delightful views across the gardens and countryside beyond. Stairs rise from the reception room to the first floor, while a doorway leads through to the dining room where the true scale of the farm house begins to reveal itself. This in turn flows into a generous country-style kitchen, thoughtfully fitted with modern cabinetry and warm wooden worktops that complement the home’s period character beautifully. The kitchen provides ample space for everyday family life whilst maintaining a timeless countryside aesthetic. Beyond the kitchen, a useful utility room offers additional practicality with direct access to the courtyard, alongside a well-appointed shower room ideally suited to muddy boots, dogs returning from countryside walks or visiting guests. Throughout, the interiors have been tastefully and neutrally decorated, allowing the charm of the farm house itself to take centre stage. Upstairs, the farm house continues to impress with three comfortable double bedrooms, each enjoying peaceful outlooks across the surrounding countryside and grounds. A well-presented family bathroom serves the accommodation, completing a home that successfully blends period character with practical modern living. Despite its charming farm house façade, the property offers surprisingly generous accommodation throughout, creating a home that feels both intimate and spacious in equal measure. STEP INSIDE THE BARN The detached barn conversion offers a wonderful contrast to the traditional farm house, blending rustic architectural character with a more contemporary, almost art deco-inspired aesthetic. Converted in the early 2000s, the barn has been thoughtfully designed to celebrate volume, light and texture, resulting in a home that feels both creative and inviting. At its heart is a striking principal reception room where exposed stone walls, warm wooden flooring and a corner wood burning stove combine to create an atmosphere that is both cosy and dramatic. A concealed cloakroom allows the design to remain clean and uncluttered. From here, the accommodation flows naturally into the impressive split-level kitchen and dining space, undoubtedly one of the barn’s standout features. Beautifully arranged with modern country-style cabinetry and tiled flooring, the kitchen balances practicality with character. A few steps rise to the elevated dining area where the full architectural impact of the barn is revealed. Soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and an expansive feature window flood the space with natural light and frame enchanting views across the surrounding greenery, creating an uplifting and highly sociable environment for both everyday living and entertaining. The barn’s versatility continues from the living space to a room, rich in character with exposed stone walls, this flexible space could serve equally well as a bedroom, second reception room, studio or guest accommodation, with direct access leading through to the garden room and out into the surrounding grounds. Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys a wonderfully peaceful outlook, with doors opening onto a Juliet balcony perfectly positioned to take in the far-reaching countryside views — a beautiful scene to wake up to each morning. A second bedroom, complete with cabin bed and Velux window, adds further charm and practicality, while a well-appointed family bathroom serves the first-floor accommodation. Throughout the barn, there is a wonderful interplay between old and new; exposed beams and stonework sit comfortably alongside clean contemporary finishes, creating a home with immense personality, warmth and flexibility. STEP OUTSIDE Approached from the road through electric gates, a long private driveway passes the grounds on either side, past generous parking areas—including an additional parking space positioned towards the top of the driveway—with the paddock to one side and gardens to the other, creating an immediate sense of arrival and rural seclusion. The farm house itself enjoys a quintessentially charming setting, fronted by a neat lawn enclosed by traditional stone walling and complemented by a delightful seating area perfectly positioned to enjoy the tranquillity of the surroundings. An external stone staircase rises to the former hayloft, currently providing excellent storage space, yet also offering intriguing potential to become integral to the cottage accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. Connecting the farm house and barn is a shared courtyard. Equally suited as a sociable communal area or capable of being adapted to provide greater separation and privacy between the two residences if desired, this central courtyard creates a wonderful flow between the buildings. Additional tucked-away seating areas are dotted throughout the grounds, each thoughtfully positioned to capture the sunshine and take in the beautiful countryside views at different times of day. The gardens continue to unfold around the barn conversion, where a lawn extends to the side and rear, creating an idyllic outdoor setting for entertaining, family gatherings or quiet relaxation. A raised decked terrace provides an elevated vantage point across the surrounding landscape, perfectly placed for evening drinks, outdoor dining or simply appreciating the peaceful rural outlook. Beyond lies the garden studio, complete with power, lighting and a shower room, offering exceptional versatility. Whether utilised as guest accommodation, a creative studio, home office, wellness space or holiday let potential, it provides yet another layer of flexibility to this already highly adaptable property. The acreage extends predominantly to the eastern side of the property, creating a wonderfully natural environment ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, families, smallholding aspirations or simply those seeking space and freedom. A blend of meadow and open grassland has been thoughtfully maintained with pathways cut through the land for gentle walks and exploration, while a small area of woodland further enhances the sense of privacy and connection to nature. From many points within the grounds, there are far-reaching countryside views that reinforce the feeling of being immersed in the South Hams landscape. For buyers seeking even greater acreage or lifestyle potential, the adjoining land is understood to be owned by a local individual who may be open to discussions regarding the sale of additional land, presenting an exciting opportunity to expand the holding further if desired.

INTRODUCTION Commanding a magnificent position between Dartmoor National Park and the South Devon coast, Bickington Barton is an exceptional 16th-century grade II listed country residence that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern rural living. Set within just over six acres of glorious Devon countryside, this distinguished property offers a rare lifestyle opportunity — combining character, versatility, and breathtaking views in equal measure. Beautifully presented, the main house retains a wealth of period features, from exposed beams and granite fireplaces to graceful proportions throughout. The grounds encompass a range of traditional barns, a stable block, and a former piggery, presenting exciting potential for equestrian use or a thriving smallholding. With ample space and privacy, the property also lends itself to multi-generational living or guest accommodation, with scope to create an impressive annex or holiday retreat (subject to planning consents). Peacefully positioned on the edge of a charming rural village, Bickington Barton enjoys an idyllic countryside setting, offering an unparalleled Devon lifestyle of comfort, heritage, and natural beauty. HISTORY With roots reaching deep into England’s early history, Bickington Barton occupies land first settled during the Saxon era and is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. The property forms part of a rich rural heritage, in the company of other period homes and barn conversions, all built around the 15th-century village church — a timeless setting that has evolved gracefully through the centuries. Once owned by the Bickford family, a name long associated with local prosperity, the estate bears a proud connection to William Bickford, inventor of the pioneering Safety Fuse in 1831 — a creation that transformed the mining industry by drastically improving safety of the miners. Many of the home’s original architectural features remain beautifully preserved, including granite pillars and fireplaces, and an exquisite plank-and-muntin screen, each echoing the craftsmanship of a bygone age. The surrounding landscape tells its own story. Just down the lane, The Dartmoor Halfway Inn recalls a time when farmers transporting livestock to coastal market ports would rest overnight — drawn by the fertile land and natural wells that sustained travellers and animals alike. Today, gazing across the rolling fields, it is easy to imagine the scene centuries ago — animals grazing on the same rich pasture and the enduring rhythm of rural Devon life continuing much as it always has. STEP INSIDE Granite pillars herald the entrance to Bickington Barton, inviting you into a home where history and character are woven into every detail. Upon entering, the reception room immediately impresses, featuring a large fireplace, wooden flooring, and a window overlooking the picturesque garden, complete with fitted wooden shutters. A beautifully preserved plank-and-muntin screen adds further historic charm, creating a welcoming space that truly oozes character. Adjoining the reception room, a cozy snug offers an intimate retreat, with its own fireplace and traditional window shutters, perfect for quiet evenings. The living room is a statement of grandeur and warmth, boasting parquet flooring and another impressive fireplace with a feature inset arch to the side which the current owners , decorate with seasoned logs. A door from the living room leads directly to an external porch, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is a bright, inviting heart of the home, designed around space for a central kitchen table, ideal for family gatherings. Solid oak worktops and wooden units frame an electric AGA with electric module, complemented by a bespoke mantel. Original granite flooring and marble tops surrounding the sink lend timeless elegance. Adjacent, a utility room — originally the kitchen — provides practical washing facilities and leads to a spacious pantry housing large electric batteries (available by negotiation). The property also includes a boot room, with a range of units, ideal as kitchen overspill plus access to the rear courtyard so ideal for bringing in dirty boots and pets. A cloakroom adds convenience with attractive tiled flooring linking to the boot room. Ascending to the upper floors, the property offers six generously proportioned bedrooms, arranged around a split-level landing that reflects the home’s historic character. The main bedroom is a particularly impressive space, once likely two separate rooms, now offering a spacious retreat complete with a modern ensuite, dressing room, and breathtaking views across the surrounding Devon countryside. Five of the bedrooms enjoy stunning vistas, with windows overlooking the front and side of the house and the sweeping landscape beyond. To the rear of the house is a highly versatile space easily serving as a self-contained annex, with a large bedroom, adjoining sitting space, ensuite bathroom, and a private entrance from the courtyard, ideal for guests, extended family, or potential rental use. The main bathroom is elegantly appointed, featuring a sunken bath, and wooden flooring. SELLERS INSIGHT “When we first discovered Bickington Barton, we instantly fell in love with its rural tranquillity and timeless charm. We wanted something that felt truly remote — surrounded by countryside and nature — yet still close enough to everyday life. Here, we found that perfect balance. The house is just minutes from everything — the moors, the coast, and nearby towns — yet when you arrive, it feels as though you’re miles from anywhere. As a family, we needed to be near good schools and local amenities, and honestly, we didn’t think we’d find somewhere that offered both practicality and seclusion. Then we found Bickington Barton — and it changed everything. It’s so quiet and private, and the setting has given us a lifestyle we only ever dreamed of. We always wanted to try our hand at a smallholding, especially while the children were young enough to enjoy it, and this property gave us the confidence to do just that. It’s given us all a new lease of life — fresh air, space, and the joy of living in tune with the land. We adore the character and history of the house. It’s incredible to think of the generations who have lived here before us, and the many centuries of stories within these walls. Every quirky feature — from the granite pillars to the old plank-and-muntin screen — adds to its charm, and we’ve loved every single one of them. As the children grew, the space here has been a blessing — everyone has room to spread out without ever feeling on top of each other. The bedroom at the rear has been ideal for visiting family and later became a perfect space for our eldest son, giving him independence while still keeping him close. Outside there are no limitations, life flows easily between swimming in the pool during summer, lounging or working in the garden, or tending to the animals year-round. Living here has brought us such a healthy, balanced way of life, and we’ll always be grateful for the years we’ve spent as part of this incredible home’s story. Now, it’s time for someone else to fall in love with Bickington Barton and make their own story.” STEP OUTSIDE The front of Bickington Barton is approached via a private driveway, offering ample parking and a five-bar gate leading to the yard. A detached barn provides versatile storage and features an undercroft. Stone walling surrounds the garden, which is accessed via a picturesque gate leading to the front door. Multiple seating areas have been created to take full advantage of the stunning surrounding views, with raised decking offering a perfect vantage point to enjoy sunsets across the valley. The garden itself is beautifully maintained, with a lush lawn, mature trees, and a variety of sunlit spaces for relaxation. A gate from the garden leads to the heated swimming pool, powered by an air source heat pump, with a stone-built pump house tucked discreetly behind. Another gate opens into a secret walled garden, providing a private retreat enclosed by ancient stone walls. The rear of the property is highly practical, featuring a courtyard with direct access to the utility room, ideal for pets. A rear concreted yard connects to a listed former piggery, retaining cobbled flooring, original granite troughs, and visible runs where piglets would have moved from each sow — a rare and evocative glimpse into the property’s agricultural past. Stone-built stables comprise four spacious boxes and a tack room, all fitted with lighting, concrete troughs, and a water supply. Attached is a large workshop, with an upper floor hayloft providing additional barn space with level access to the rear yard. A fully fenced field lies behind the property, offering breathtaking views of Haytor Rocks and the village church, there is also an area of woodland and a large space, formally a substantial vegetable garden. The remainder of the land includes a large field to the south, with additional gated access from the lane, making the estate ideal for smallholding, equestrian pursuits, or leisure activities, while preserving total privacy and the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside.
