Stoodleigh, Tiverton, EX16

2.00 acres of pasture and amenity woodland. Available as a whole or in up to two lots.


Two enclosures of pastureland, former pump house and two ponds, together with around 2.00 acres. It is shown edged blue in the accompanying identification plan.

Situated to the north of Lot 1, Lot 2 is currently accessed by a timber gate to the west of the enclosure and that opens on to the driveway. Lot 2 is approximately 2.00 acres and comprises two enclosures. The first enclosure includes gently sloping pasture of an easterly aspect and is bounded by timber post and rail fences to the north and east and traditional bank and hedgerows to the south. Further, it contains a former pump house that we understand used to serve the village of Stoodleigh. It has now been converted to serve as a storeroom and may be described as follows:-

Former pump house of two rooms accessed by a timber gate and of uncoursed stone and brick construction beneath a mono-pitched slate roof. The floors are of mixed brick and concrete construction. The former pump house is in a serviceable condition for its current use and measures approximately 2.5m x 8.5m.

The first enclosure is currently unused, containing some woody shrubs and is wet underfoot in parts. An overhead electricity line crosses the holding and we have assumed that standard wayleaves or easements exist in respect of this.

The second enclosure contains two ponds, is bounded by timber post and rail fences and includes access to a stream.

Should Lot 1 and Lot 2 be sold separately, the latter will enjoy rights of access to that portion of the driveway that leads to the first enclosure.
