The home features spacious rooms with a versatile and captivating layout, suitable for a 'two-family' setup or as an exquisite family dwelling, providing outstanding living spaces both indoors and out, with convenient access to Newton Abbot, Totnes, and surrounding areas.

Dominating the first floor is the breathtaking vaulted living room, showcasing exposed beams, painted stone walls, a modern wood stove, and a dramatic 'floor-to-ceiling' double-glazed window that offers views of the gardens, paddock, the neighbouring countryside, and Dartmoor in the distance. This floor also features a large modern bathroom with a roll-top, claw-foot tub and feature ceiling lighting.

 

The exterior of the property is equally impressive.

From the driveway, steps rise to a block of stables with vehicle access from a separate gate and in turn open out onto the paddock to the rear via a five bar gate, understood to be just under an acre, an ideal pony paddock, horse enclosure, hobby farm or a small holding and ideal for those looking for a `slice of the good life`. There is also  block built outbuilding, ideal as a chicken shed and from the top of the paddock you can enjoy stunning, far reaching views out over the surrounding countryside towards the moors.
