About this property

  • Constructed in 2014, this attractive detached house provides over 3,600 sq ft of reverse-level living accommodation, designed to maximise its privacy and views over the surrounding countryside to the south. The building is set within an orchard and walled gardens, which extend to about 0.92 acres.

    Accessed via a gravelled driveway and parking area with carport and storage building to the side, a gate leads to a sheltered terrace at the back of the house, with a glazed door to the reception hall, which also has an oak staircase leading to the bedrooms on the lower ground floor.

    The kitchen/breakfast room, which can also be accessed from the rear terrace, has a central island unit, a range of fitted appliances and a range cooker. From here, an archway leads to an open-plan dining/sitting room, a statement feature of the building, with inset wood burning stove and floor to ceiling windows. On the south western elevation, bi-folding doors lead onto a decked balcony, offering fabulous views over the walled garden to the valley beyond.

    There is a study or fifth bedroom on this floor, a utility room, WC and family/games room, which also has French doors to the gardens and terrace. A useful airing cupboard can be accessed from the reception hall.

    On the lower ground floor, there is a principal bedroom suite, with a range of fitted cupboards, a dressing area and en suite shower room. There is a guest bedroom with en suite shower room, and two further bedrooms which share a family bathroom. Each of the bedrooms has a glazed door opening to the gardens.

    Outside, the building is approached off a quiet lane into a shared driveway, which leads further to the gated entrance to Lower Orchard House, flanked on either side by large areas of lawn bordered by trees and beech hedging.

    There is a carport and storage shed, which has planning permission for replacement, to create a garage and utility building, with glazed link to the main house. For further details and plans, please contact the agents or search NDDC Planning website Ref: 60509. Within the gardens, there is garden store and tractor shed, which could be adapted to create a home office or studio, subject to the necessary consents.

    The remainder of the gardens run away to the south of the house and buildings, with terraces, lawns, trees and a Devon bank which runs along the property's southern boundary.
