Lustleigh, Devon

Land for sale in Newton Abbot

DESRIPTION Extending in all to 11 acres but divided into two distinct blocks of land/woodland and dissected by a footpath.

The land is set in an elevated position and commands some breath-taking views across to Lustleigh itself and the rest of Dartmoor.

The land also benefits from two timber STABLES, open front timber store and a Nissan Hut together with an area close-by which has been used for the cultivation of vegetables and plants. Having been lightly farmed over the past decade the land has also been used for equestrian and amenity purposes. Sitting in one of the top wooded areas is the historic "May Rock" so this is a chance to purchase a real slice of Devon history.

LOCATION The sought after village of Lustleigh which lies in a stunning setting on the eastern edge of the Dartmoor National Park.
