Narraway Farm is a well proportioned detached 5 bedroom farmhouse situated on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park with earlier origins but which has been subject to a virtual rebuild and renovation by the current owner over the last fifteen years.

The accommodation is spacious with generously proportioned rooms throughout. The majority of the joinery is in light oak with an impressive staircase in the centre of the house and a large rooflight bringing natural light down through the property. The heating is via woodburning stoves and underfloor electric heating, the supply for which is produced from an array of solar panels situated on the land. There is an attractive walled garden to the rear and ample parking.

In addition to the house there is a substantial courtyard of historic barns which are currently used for storage but offer an opportunity for future development, subject to planning permission being obtained. There are three further modern agricultural buildings, one of which is used as a car port and stable. The grounds and land which is mainly sloping pasture amount to 31.7 acres approximately.
