An imposing Grade II manor occupying about 0.44 acre in East Ogwell, this 13th-century house offers over 4,500sqft of flexible living across three storeys. Period features include exposed beams, sash windows, marble fireplaces and a tower-like frontage; modern additions include double glazing and ultrafast broadband. The property is arranged as four double bedrooms, three reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and generous storage, with formal lawns, a courtyard patio and productive vegetable beds.
There are several practical considerations: the house is listed (Grade II), which will restrict alterations and add consenting complexity; the EPC is band E; heating runs from an oil-fired boiler and many original granite walls lack modern insulation. Traditional stone outbuildings and a Dutch-barn offer clear scope for ancillary accommodation or holiday lets, but any conversion will need planning and listed-building consents.
The plot and location are strong selling points — long private driveway, gravel parking, mature borders and proximity to village amenities, Newton Abbot and Dartmoor. For a buyer seeking authenticity and scale, the house rewards careful updating and targeted investment. It suits a family wanting character and space, or a purchaser with restoration experience and patience to manage listed-building responsibilities.
