Currently in need of renovation and arranged as 3 apartments, this is a beautiful Provencal stone property, built in 1819, close to Vaison la Romaine in South East France. The property is versatile enough that it could either make a very nice second home or could be used as a business with gites or chambers d'hotes particularly as there is a lack of highquality accommodation in the area. The house is not isolated.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION A real opportunity to purchase a substantial Grade II Listed Georgian country residence with a lucrative income realised by a well established caravan storage business. In a beautiful, rural location with charming views over its 76 acres of parkland, woodland and neighbouring countryside this unique home offers any discerning buyer the opportunity to live close to the South Devon coast, whilst having the opportunity to live and work in a convenient location close to the city of Plymouth. Given the convenient location the property makes for a wonderful family home with the potential to create an annexe, if required. In addition to the extensive grounds, you will find offices and storage in a detached stable and an agricultural storage unit. A fabulous home and lifestyle business that rarely comes to the open market. On approaching Spriddlestone House via an impressive, tree-lined drive this Georgian home sits on an elevated position optimizing the views over the neighbouring countryside and land. The driveway separates providing private access to the home and secondary access to the stable block. Prior to the formal access leading to the home ample parking is provided to include two timber built carports. The formal gardens provide excellent entertainment space with lawned and terraced areas. Furthermore an enclosed courtyard, decked area, a delightful walled garden and small fruit orchard are located. Spriddlestone House offers approximately 56 acres of pasture land with a further 12 acres of well stocked woodland. The land, although not registered, has been farmed organically for the last 13 years. Registered with the RPA the land enjoys substantial EU grant payments and the pasture is currently let on an annual grazing license. Fed by various springs and streams this attractive parcel of land would appeal to those looking for equestrian or other leisure pursuits. To compliment the land there are a range of traditional and modern outbuildings to include a two storey building currently set up as stabling and storage to the ground floor on the upper floor, office space for the current business. This particular building lends itself to many uses depending on the requirements of any future owner – perhaps a self-contained annexe, holiday cottages, and garaging or extensive offices. To the south east there is an expanse of courtyard, which could easily make for further caravan storage or a myriad of other uses including interesting opportunities and development potential. (subject to the necessary planning consent). Within the courtyard there are 2 modern and very substantial outbuildings, the larger being 124’5” x 60’3”. Agents Note The current vendors currently run an extremely lucrative business making use of two compounds which provide secure storage for 120 caravans. This business could easily be extended to provide further caravan storage by utilising the substantial courtyard located to the south east of the property. If you would like further information regarding the current business please call the office.(There is also potential to develop the business further into a caravan and camping site at very modest cost) AREA DESCRIPTION Spriddlestone House is situated within beautiful South Hams countryside, tucked away in a private and tranquil valley location just five minutes from Wembury and the South Devon coastline – dedicated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The village boasts a thriving community with amenities to include a 14th century church, primary school, convenience store, surgery, Inn and beach.

There are wonderful opportunities for walking on the South Devon coastal footpaths to both east and west, with further opportunities for walking or riding on Dartmoor just 8 miles to the north. There are 18 hole golf courses at Staddiscombe, Plympton and Bigbury.

CHARM AND GRACE From the minute you step inside this enchanting little home you feel the sense of history, of the struggle of a simple mill workers house that became this exquisite contemporary home, a home that is perfect for a young couple looking to get a house and not a flat for their first home, or those lucky enough to be able to afford a holiday home in Perthshire and need a base to explore all the adventures our area has to offer. Step off the pavement and into a welcoming hall with the staircase directly in front of you. To your left is the dining room, or third bedroom if you prefer, with a window to the front. Over to the right is the lounge. Fab space with multi fuel stove in an inglenook and windows to the front and rear permit you to watch the many visiting birds feed. A large cupboard affords the space to hide away all those things not needed on a daily basis and a door takes you to the inner hall where you gain access to the bathroom and kitchen as well as more storage. The bathroom merits a mention as the last time I saw a 'half bath' was in a Chateau in the South of France. They were very popular there. This half size bath is more akin to a shower tray you can sit in with your knees touching your chin, cosy but authentic. A shower is overhead and of course a w.c, and whb, all modern comforts with quirky, yesteryear style. The Kitchen on the other hand is very much of this world with modern floor and wall units and enough work surface for even the keenest of cooks. A stable door opens from the kitchen to the rear of this house and into a stunning garden with areas to sit and read or listen to the birds, yet you can walk from 1 St Helens Place to the shops or cafes. The stairs are narrow and interesting and lead to two great sized double bedrooms, one has a fireplace as a feature, each have slight combed ceilings to add to the charm. I love being in this home and would be delighted to show you around. Have I tempted you? Call me to arrange a viewing on 07897873443. Thanks for reading this.

With provenance back to 1411 Grade II Star listed Set in approx 1.8 acres of grounds Four Star Visit Britain rated Within easy walk of village amenities Original chapel tower still remaining THE PROPERTY St Benets Abbey has origins dating back to 1411 and is a unique building standing in approximately 1.8 acres of grounds with a wooded back drop yet within a short walk of the good village amenities of Lanivet. The property exudes a wealth of charm and sense of history. It is not sure when work began on the property but it was completed by 1411. The original tower for the chapel still remains and the gate house, now the lounge, was joined to the chapel by cloisters and had a nave running towards the back of the present building which is indicative by the shape of the roof still being seen on the front of the tower. Building continued on the property until 1430 when the front span was completed and was the only local building not to escape the dissolution of the monasteries as it was seized by the Crown and sold to a merchant in 1549. The property was fully restored in the 1980s to become a country house offering guest accommodation as it is found today. The property is set at the half way point of the Saints Way, a medieval route taken by pilgrims on their way from Ireland to France which crosses from Padstow on the north Cornwall coast to Fowey on the south coast. The property is approached over the drive and then onto the bridge over a stream then leading into the main and large car park surrounded by various mature shrubs and trees including geraniums, various conifers and some bamboo. The presence of bamboo dates back many decades when the area was known as being a provider of bamboos to London Zoo to feed the pandas, hence the sign at the local Pub. Clumps of bamboo remain in the gardens and woodland behind. The rear garden to the higher side of the property is accessed through a gate where will be found the original Tower, now without its internal floors but having an old stone staircase in one corner. To the front of this is an old well and various mature trees and shrubs and with further footpaths leading to further large garden areas on the village side of the property with a small range of garden buildings. The bedrooms offer modern comforts and the guest bedrooms are provided with en-suite facilities, colour televisions and central heating.

The property has an ideal setting in the heart of the county and is about fifteen minutes drive only from the world renowned Eden Project and about twenty minutes drive from the south Cornwall coast with centres such as Fowey, St Austell, Charlestown, Looe, Polperro and Mevagissey and about half an hours drive to the contrasting scenery of the north Cornwall coast at Padstow, Polzeath, Tintagel, Port Isaac and Boscastle to name but a few.

HISTORY Fort Picklecombe was commissioned in the mid 19th century by Lord Palmerston, Foreign Secretary and then Prime Minister under Queen Victoria. Being an island, Great Britain was at risk from large scale enemy invasion by sea, particularly from France. Palmerston ordered a series of coastal forts and batteries to be built in this area to defend the large naval base at Devonport near Plymouth. The coastal entrance to Plymouth is known as Plymouth Sound, and was to be defended by Fort Picklecombe to the west, Fort Bovisand to the east, and a smaller fort on the Plymouth Sound breakwater. Guns were removed from the fort in the 1920s but after the outbreak of the World War II it was reactivated and manned by the Coastal Artillery. Just down the coast to the west of the fort range finder and searchlight positions were made. The remains of these positions still remain today. After the war, the fort was decommissioned and it stood derelict for many years. Eventually it was offered for sale to property developers and in the early 1970s it was converted to 103 residential apartments. A grand building, called the Officers’ Mess stands in an elevated position above the main fort complex. It is said that in order to meet the demands of the then landowner, the Earl of Edgcumbe, the officers mess had to emulate Warwick Castle, complete with towers and castellations. In the spring of 2007 work was well under way to convert the Officers Mess into apartments. Today the officer’s mess is an exclusive development of nine luxury apartments including two penthouses, with stunning coastal views over Plymouth Sound. The property is adjacent to Mount Edgecombe Country Park and has views of Kingsand and Cawsand Bay to the West and Jennycliffe to the East. A quiet rural retreat yet only a couple of miles as the crow flies from the urban sprawl of Plymouth.  LOCATION Fort Picklecombe is located on western side of Plymouth Sound, close to Mount Edgcumbe Country Park. The Park has 865 acres of beautiful countryside with prepared walks and paths. Access is immediately behind the Fort. The City of Plymouth is easily accessible by the Cremyll Pedestrian Ferry. There are parking facilities at the ferry terminal and the scenic trip across the Sound takes 7 -8 minutes. The service operates throughout the day and into the evening. Alternatively, travel by car ferry from Torpoint. The service runs continuously at peak time and throughout the day and has recently been upgraded to provide a quick and efficient route to town. To travel by road, the A38 at Trerulefoot is about 11 miles away and provides good access via the Tamar Bridge to the Devon Expressway. This provides access to Plymouth City Centre and continues to join the M5 Motorway at Exeter. For golfing enthusiasts there are a number of excellent golf courses throughout the area including the world famous St Mellion Golf Course (designed by Jack Nicklaus) just 30 minutes drive (subject to road conditions) as is Looe Down Golf Course, while the stunning sea views from the cliff top of Whitsand Bay Golf Course. The area is famous for its sailing and water pursuits with the advantage of the sound where large yachts race in both summer and winter seasons. It is supported by an abundance of moorings, marinas and harbours for the seafaring comm. unity. Both the Ostar race and the Trans Atlantic race start from the Sound. Furthermore, there is a spectacular flow of Naval Vessels coming and going to ensure that the view is constantly changing.  PROPERTY This property is accessed from the ground floor through its own entrance door. The property is a town house over two floors. On the ground floor you will find three of the bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Both Penthouses have one covered parking space and one front open space each. The remaining seven properties have one space each with visitors parking. Work has begun to fit the kitchen and bathrooms in these properties but if a reservation is taken before work starts in any one of the four apartments you have a choice on the range available.   TRAVEL Airport Links – Plymouth has a reasonably busy airport with links to many destinations throughout the country.

HISTORY Fort Picklecombe was commissioned in the mid 19th century by Lord Palmerston, Foreign Secretary and then Prime Minister under Queen Victoria. Being an island, Great Britain was at risk from large scale enemy invasion by sea, particularly from France. Palmerston ordered a series of coastal forts and batteries to be built in this area to defend the large naval base at Devonport near Plymouth. The coastal entrance to Plymouth is known as Plymouth Sound, and was to be defended by Fort Picklecombe to the west, Fort Bovisand to the east, and a smaller fort on the Plymouth Sound breakwater. Guns were removed from the fort in the 1920s but after the outbreak of the World War II it was reactivated and manned by the Coastal Artillery. Just down the coast to the west of the fort range finder and searchlight positions were made. The remains of these positions still remain today. After the war, the fort was decommissioned and it stood derelict for many years. Eventually it was offered for sale to property developers and in the early 1970s it was converted to 103 residential apartments. A grand building, called the Officers’ Mess stands in an elevated position above the main fort complex. It is said that in order to meet the demands of the then landowner, the Earl of Edgcumbe, the officers mess had to emulate Warwick Castle, complete with towers and castellations. In the spring of 2007 work was well under way to convert the Officers Mess into apartments. Today the officer’s mess is an exclusive development of nine luxury apartments including two penthouses, with stunning coastal views over Plymouth Sound. The property is adjacent to Mount Edgecombe Country Park and has views of Kingsand and Cawsand Bay to the West and Jennycliffe to the East. A quiet rural retreat yet only a couple of miles as the crow flies from the urban sprawl of Plymouth. LOCATION Fort Picklecombe is located on western side of Plymouth Sound, close to Mount Edgcumbe Country Park. The Park has 865 acres of beautiful countryside with prepared walks and paths. Access is immediately behind the Fort. The City of Plymouth is easily accessible by the Cremyll Pedestrian Ferry. There are parking facilities at the ferry terminal and the scenic trip across the Sound takes 7 -8 minutes. The service operates throughout the day and into the evening. Alternatively, travel by car ferry from Torpoint. The service runs continuously at peak time and throughout the day and has recently been upgraded to provide a quick and efficient route to town. To travel by road, the A38 at Trerulefoot is about 11 miles away and provides good access via the Tamar Bridge to the Devon Expressway. This provides access to Plymouth City Centre and continues to join the M5 Motorway at Exeter. For golfing enthusiasts there are a number of excellent golf courses throughout the area including the world famous St Mellion Golf Course (designed by Jack Nicklaus) just 30 minutes drive (subject to road conditions) as is Looe Down Golf Course, while the stunning sea views from the cliff top of Whitsand Bay Golf Course. The area is famous for its sailing and water pursuits with the advantage of the sound where large yachts race in both summer and winter seasons. It is supported by an abundance of moorings, marinas and harbours for the seafaring comm. unity. Both the Ostar race and the Trans Atlantic race start from the Sound. Furthermore, there is a spectacular flow of Naval Vessels coming and going to ensure that the view is constantly changing.
