Overlooking the River Tamar and nestled within the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this striking modern home combines architectural elegance with natural serenity.
   
One of the property's most captivating features is its direct outlook over the historic Tamar Weir – a fish weir originally built by the monks of Tavistock Abbey and later rebuilt circa 1800 – which marks the tidal limit of the river. The ever-changing light on the water, wildlife, and surrounding countryside provide a constant sense of peace.

Sellers Note
Weir Run has been in our family for 50 Years. In 2018 after my father passed away, we transformed what was a quaint two-bedroom bungalow into our dream retreat, a haven designed to embrace the beauty of this extraordinary location.
   
Nothing compares to the peace and tranquillity we have found at Weir Run. It's a sanctuary, a place where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life yet remain conveniently connected. While the Cornish coastline buzzes with summer activity, Weir Run offers a peaceful escape, a hidden gem. Yet, you are never far from adventure. Explore the rugged beauty of Dartmoor, discover historic sites, or wander through picturesque fishing villages. And for everyday conveniences, the charming Market town of Tavistock, birthplace to Sir Francis Drake, is just a short drive away offering delightful shops and restaurants.
   
We've woven countless cherished memories into the fabric of this home-lazy days fishing on the river, idyllic picnics on the banks whilst watching the abundance of wildlife, Kingfishers, Otters, leaping Salmon & Sea Trout. It, s with heavy hearts that we've decided to move closer to our grandchildren in Virginia, who are calling us home.
   
Being retired, we have kept busy by running Weir Run as a very successful Boutique B&B. We have met so many wonderful people and our repeat business is close to 50%. It is featured on the Booking.com website as "RIVERSIDE STAY" and our rating has always been 10/10.

We will deeply miss our mornings spent watching the river awaken from our bed, a cup of tea warming our hands. We have been truly blessed to call Weir Run our home, and we know that the next owners will experience the same profound sense of peace and joy. This isn't just a house; its a slice of paradise, a place where you can create your own treasured moments, surrounded by the beauty of nature. We hope you will feel the magic we have felt here.
