Spacious detached home with sweeping estuary views and large private grounds..
Four bedrooms and multiple reception rooms across two storeys
Occupying an elevated, semi‑secluded site with panoramic views over the River Teign and towards Dartmoor, this detached four‑bedroom house sits in about 0.85 acres of mature grounds. The setting delivers strong privacy, extensive garden and pasture edges, and real potential to create a bespoke family home that makes the most of the estuary outlooks.
Internally the house offers generous, traditionally proportioned rooms across two storeys — large lounge, dining room, kitchen, utility, study and a sunroom/porch on the ground floor, with four principal bedrooms and bathroom/en‑suite facilities upstairs. The layout is well suited to family living or flexible uses such as a home office or hobby space.
The property does require renovation: works are needed to modernise finishes, services and possibly structural elements to reach contemporary standards. Broadband speeds are slow and tenure is unconfirmed, both of which should be clarified early in your enquiries. Council tax is described as quite expensive and any plans for ancillary buildings (stables, outbuildings) would need consents.
For buyers seeking a quiet, affluent rural location close to excellent primary schools — including Shaldon Primary (Outstanding) — this house presents a rare opportunity to reimagine a sizable country residence with dramatic water and countryside views. It will particularly suit purchasers prepared for a renovation project who value privacy, space and long‑term potential.
