Points of Note Include:
Situation
Raneleigh Farm was built in the early part of the 20th Century and was once part of Langdon Court, a manorial estate noted in the Domesday Book. The barns were tastefully and sympathetically converted into a number of residential units in the mid 1990s, retaining the distinctive stone elevations with yellow brick reveals to windows and door openings. Each unit is individually designed and the whole setting is delightfully rural yet within only a short drive of nearby Down Thomas, Wembury village and beach. The village of Down Thomas has a public house, general store and village hall. More extensive shopping facilities are available in Plymstock where there are secondary schools, the local primary school being in the village of Wembury. Around the area there are delightful walks along well signposted footpaths and easy access can be gained to the coast and the South West Coast Path.
Services
Mains electricity and water. Individually metered lpg gas from communal tanks. Shared private drainage.
Management
The Management Company is owned by the residents of Raneleigh and the annual cost will be approximately £600 and covers the maintenance of the shared driveway, parking, external lighting and communal areas.

- A grand staircase splits at a half-landing and rises on both sides to the spectacular Living/Dining Room which has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and feature cast iron wheel which is part of the original workings of the barn. The room benefits from a number of windows providing an abundance of natural light, in addition to stripped floorboards and a feature fireplace.

- The garden is across the driveway and accessed via steps which lead down to a large lawn area which has walled and fenced perimeters. The current owners have added a superb decking area with Summerhouse and attached storage shed; we are informed that the loadbearing capacity of the roof is sufficient for solar panels, enabling one to install power to this part of the property. The garden overall is an excellent size, enjoying beautiful views over woodland and fields towards the village of Wembury, and being mainly laid to lawn with mature trees including apple, pear, willow and palm, along with a vegetable patch which has excellent potential for substantial expansion.
