PROPERTY SUMMARY Set just beyond the edge of Chudleigh, Marden Farm occupies a gently elevated position, enjoying a sense of space and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside. Extending to approximately 1.12 acres, the property brings together a well-balanced detached bungalow, self-contained annexe accommodation and a long-established cattery business.

The arrangement offers a natural degree of flexibility. The annexe provides independent living suited to multi-generational occupation or guest use, while the cattery - with its own separate access - continues to operate independently from the main residence. Together, they create a setting that lends itself equally to lifestyle purchasers, those seeking an income from home, or buyers considering longer-term potential, subject to the necessary consents.

The position strikes a careful balance: quietly placed, yet within easy reach of the amenities of Chudleigh and the A38, offering straightforward access to Exeter, Newton Abbot and the wider South West. 

RESIDENTIAL ACCOMMODATION The modern accommodation, offers light and bright space with an Entrance Hall leading to the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen is equipped with modern appliances and natural light floods the room through a large window, creating a bright and airy ambiance that is perfect for both cooking and dining. This kitchen also offers plenty of space for a dining area, making it the perfect spot for casual family meals or morning coffee. The lounge sits off and offers fabulous far reaching views.

The self-contained annexe is well presented and offers flexible living space that can easily be accessed through the main accommodation by an internal inter-connecting door. The annexe has been a very popular summer letting offering.

There are three bedrooms in the main part of the property all enjoying some superb views. A modern family bathroom with shower mixer taps complements the space perfectly.  

THE CATTERY The cattery is a long-established and well-run business, licensed and inspected annually by Teignbridge District Council.

The facility includes 35 individual pens, each accommodating up to two cats, along with five family pens suitable for up to four cats from the same household. The business has been operated to a high standard and further information, including trading figures, is available by request.

Importantly, the cattery benefits from separate access from the main residence, allowing the business to operate independently of the household. 

OUTSIDE The gardens are well maintained and designed to be relatively low maintenance, with a decked seating area providing an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

Beyond the formal gardens lies a fenced paddock and open grounds, offering both privacy and far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside.

There is ample parking and a clear separation between the residential and business elements of the property.
