An abandoned 'time capsule home' that hasn't been lived in for more than 50 years has been put up for sale, and one lucky bidder could bag themselves several homes in one.
The Georgian farmhouse has been left untouched for over half a century, but it has now been placed on the market with a guide price of £590,000.
For the eye-watering sum, potential buyers may acquire the detached, Grade II listed home in the heart of the Devon countryside.
Described as a "unique property" and a time capsule, Frost House benefits from two holiday letting units with ancient beams that support the buildings, an old forge and an approximately five-acre field adjoining, report Devon Live.
The home will go on sale by public auction - unless sold previously - on a date still to be announced for the price guide of £590,000.
Located about a quarter of a mile outside the village of Morchard Bishop, the property was once an impressive Georgian farmhouse. However, it has remained largely untouched for many decades.
Robert Williams, who are dealing with the sale, say that "there are virtually no properties left like this in the county which have not been modernised and renovated" - making it the perfect property to buy.
Appearing to be around two centuries old, possibly with older origins, it is understood that the main part of Frost House has not been lived in since 1952. And while the second part has been used most recently, it has remained undecorated for an age.
It could make one substantial family dwelling or could continue to be treated as two separate units, subject to planning, listed building and conservation area consent.
The main home comprises of three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. There are also three reception rooms downstairs, a former dairy/kitchen and a pump room.
Both the kitchen and pump room retain their pumps. The peeling wallpaper in one of the reception rooms seems to reportedly be a century or so old as it reveals some of the original painted wood panelling.
The itself property is divided into two principal units, with the adjoining part being lived in separately. However, it is an an integral part of the whole building.
Meanwhile, while the secondary part has been lived in more recently, it has not been decorated or renovated for some decades.
Despite this, the space allows for some great renovations to be made.
It comprises two bedrooms, a bathroom, WC and substantial landing upstairs and two reception rooms, a kitchen and laundry room on the ground floor.
Attached to the side of Frost House are also two individual letting units, which are in relatively good decorative order and even have electric heating.
Homedale comprises two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs with a kitchen/living room downstairs, while Meadow View has two bedrooms and a shower room upstairs and living room with separate kitchen/breakfast room downstairs.
For sale together with the house is the Old Forge adjacent to the main dwelling.
Constructed primarily of stone, this building stands and looks the same as it would have done three quarters of a century ago.
In fact, some of the old forge workings are still intact and a plethora of ancient beams support the work. Adjoining The Forge and a part of the building are two further substantial sections.
All three of the constituent parts of the property have their own outside areas and there is a fairly large and level garden at the side of the building.
To the side of The Forge is a very small orchard and across the road from the house is a further, small enclosed garden.
Behind the properties is a substantial and fairly level field, currently pasture, comprising approximately five acres with direct access from the public highway. A public footpath runs along the northern boundary.
