Devisee
A person who receives a gift of real property (land, buildings) through a will. The gift of real property is called a devise. In modern usage, the distinction between devisee and legatee is often blurred.
Legal Definition
A person designated in a will to receive a devise of real property, though many modern statutes use 'devisee' broadly to include recipients of both real and personal property under a will.
Practical Example
In her will, Martha names her son as the devisee of her farm. He will receive the land and buildings through the will after it goes through probate.
