Property Description
Formerly a Mill workers Cottage, Weeks Mill is set in a small valley a short distance from roadford Lake. A small and simple home this maybe, but the location and the way of life that is on offer is becoming increasingly rare. The cottage sits on the banks of the River Wolf which feeds into Roadford Lake, this small river winds through the properties land and single and double bank fishing for wild brown trout. The grounds extend to some 15 acres, a large proportion of this is woodland, some of which could be turned back into pasture land. Surrounding the cottages there are well tended and thoughtfully stocked gardens with level lawns, a large vegetable patch and fruit garden. Both of the latter have been managed organically for over thirty years. To the rear of the property there are a range of outbuildings that have fallen into disrepair, these could be reinstated for general use or with some thought and the relevant permission, could be integrated into the property to create additional accommodation. The cottage offers two/three bedrooms, kitchen, utility, bathroom, living room and a hardwood conservatory. Within the living room there is an attractive fire place with a multi fuel stove. Owing to the location of the cottage it must be noted that there are no mains connections for drainage, sewerage or water. The water supply is provided by a well and the WC in the bathroom is a Biolet composting WC. This eco style of living means that utility expenditure can be kept to a minimum.
Property Location
Nestling in a valley to the East of Roadford Lake and set at the end of a 400 yard unmade track, the property is only accessible by 4 x 4 or foot. There are no near neighbours with the only noise that can be heard being that of the natural surroundings. There are bridlepaths and foot paths within close proximity of the property meaning that there is excellent walking and riding opportunities. The property lies within the village of Germansweek, the nearest village with amenities is either Bratton Clovelly or Halwill Junction. The latter has a small selection of shops and both offer primary education. The larger Towns of Okehampton, Holsworthy and Launceston are equidistant and offer a wide range of local and national shops, education and sports facilities.
The Dartmoor National Park is only a short distance away as is Roadford Lake which offers a range of boating and fishing pursuits.
