Set within circa 1.75 acres in a peaceful hamlet, this substantial five-bedroom detached home combines period character with generous modern living spaces. The house offers three large reception rooms, a luxurious kitchen breakfast room with central island, and three en suites, plus an annexe with a shower room—ideal for multigenerational living or visiting guests. The plot includes a detached double garage, ample driveway parking and stables suitable for horses or ponies.
The property is well-placed for countryside living with easy access to Woodbury village amenities and Exeter (about 7 miles). Interiors are bright and airy with vaulted ceilings in two reception rooms, plentiful storage and attractive garden views from several bedrooms. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make the house workable for home offices or study.
Important practical notes: the building is pre-1900 sandstone/limestone construction and walls are assumed to lack modern cavity insulation, and the main heating currently relies on dual fuel sources and room heaters. These factors may mean further insulation and heating upgrades are desirable to improve energy efficiency. The large grounds, outbuildings and stables require ongoing maintenance but offer scope for landscaping, equestrian or smallholding use.
This house will suit a family seeking a spacious country home with annex potential, or buyers looking for a character property with scope to improve energy performance and personalise finishes. Flood risk is low and the site feels private and tranquil, making it a rare countryside opportunity close to local schools and amenities.
