Saffron House is a substantial four-bedroom detached family home set in peaceful Ideford, offering generous living space and a large, well-landscaped rear garden. Ground-floor living is flexible: a dual-aspect lounge with French doors, separate dining room, study for home working, and a modern kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility. The principal bedroom includes an en-suite; three further bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor.
The plot and parking are strong practical assets: a sweeping driveway provides multiple off-street spaces and leads to a large double garage with power and storage. The mature rear garden is west-facing with patio areas, lawn, productive vegetable beds, greenhouse and a pergola — ideal for family entertaining and outdoor play. Road access is excellent, with the A380 providing quick links to Exeter, Newton Abbot and the coast.
Notable considerations are factual and important for buyers: the property is traditionally constructed with cob walls and dates from before 1900, which can require specialist maintenance and careful damp/masonry checks. Heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, so prospective purchasers should note running costs and fuel supply arrangements. Broadband speeds in the area are reported very slow, which may affect heavy home-working or streaming without alternative solutions. Council tax is described as expensive relative to local bands.
Overall this house will suit families seeking a spacious, characterful village home with strong outdoor space and commuter convenience. It presents immediate liveability with modernised kitchen and bathrooms, while also offering further potential for those who want to personalise or manage traditional-build maintenance.
