Affordable Country Style Living - Come and view Wednesday 21st 4:30pm to 6:00pm



Are you looking for a home in the heart of a south Devon village, surrounded by rolling green fields? Would a convenient location not far from the market town of Newton Abbot and the seaside resorts of Shaldon and Torquay suit your requirements?

If so, why not consider ‘Garden’ The Grange, Stoke-in-Teignhead.  The village looks much the same today as it did a hundred years ago, with its chocolate box thatched cottages and high hedged lanes. As well as its old world charm, it does benefit from modern facilities that you would expect from a thriving village. It has a locally owned village shop stocking local produce, a 13th century public house, the Church House Inn, a highly recommended primary school, a recently constructed village hall, and a beautiful 13th century church. There is a real sense of community with plenty of village events for you to get involved in throughout the year, one being the famous “Fuzzy Dee Race” held every May bank holiday.

The property is in the centre of this charming village. “Garden” is a first floor apartment in a converted Victorian residence. It benefits from its own entrance which leads into the spacious accommodation. There’s a good size lounge which leads into the kitchen/dining room and has some lovely character features such as beamed ceilings and an open fire making it feel like a country cottage.  There is also large sash windows which allows great views of the private garden. There are two double bedrooms, both with built in wardrobes and a good sized family bathroom. One particular feature, and a rarity in a property of its kind is its beautiful enclosed Garden, hence the name of the property. The garden is fully enclosed by a grade two listed wall and with many beautiful shrubs and flowers bordering the lawn. From the top of the garden far reaching views of the village and surrounding fields can be enjoyed.
 
Affordable properties in villages such as Stokeinteignhead are hard to come by, and those with parking and a beautiful garden are few and far between. Garden, The Grange, is offered with no upward chain and at an asking price of £189,950. This a property which must be viewed to be fully appreciated.



Callum from Coast & Country invites you to view Garden, The Grange, Ivy Tree Hill, Stokeinteinhead, TQ12 4QH on Wednesday 21st October between 4:30pm to 6:00pm. No appointment is necessary.

Mid Week Open Viewing at Picturesque Dartmoor Home

As you drive the quiet and picturesque Wray Valley country road, on the edge of Dartmoor towards the Moorland Village of Mortonhampstead, you will be sure to notice this quaint rural home known as Hawkmoor Lodge. 

It was once the gatehouse to the former Hawkmoor Hospital, and is one of the only reminders left that the hospital ever existed. When standing in the beautifully mature gardens there is no question as to why the area was chosen. It’s beautiful and peaceful surroundings including the gently flowing stream and neighbouring woodland along with the fresh moorland air was thought by many at the time to attribute greatly to good health.

Hawkmoor Lodge occupies a generous size plot that’s thought to be over a third of an acre. It’s accessed via a 5 bar gate onto the driveway providing ample parking for a number of vehicles, and leads to a useful detached double garage. There are large lawn gardens, filled with mature flower and shrub beds which attract an abundance of wildlife and offers a great deal of privacy and seclusion.

The property itself has been skilfully converted by a sympathetic eye and now provides a picture perfect country home. The front door opens to a superb L shaped kitchen / dining room which is the real hub of the house. It has all the elements of a traditional farmhouse kitchen with its belfast sink, oil fired Rayburn and heavy flagstone floor. A door leads to the hallway which presents the main accommodation including a a cosy living room fitted with a wood-burning stove, two bedrooms, a large shower room 
and impressive double glazed conservatory overlooking the gardens and offering a pleasant area to relax and unwind.

Upstairs there is currently a superb open galleried area which offers the potential to be converted into further living accommodation, subject to the necessary consents and approvals .Throughout, the property would benefit from some general updating and improvement. Some tasteful works would tie in with the excellent location, and enhance the space that the characterful home has to offer.

It’s a truly special property and offers the potential to become quite a substantial home should you need that extra accommodation.
