Summary - WHITE LODGE WESTLEIGH BIDEFORD EX39 4NR
6 bed 4 bath Detached
Extensive period residence with coach house, tennis court and circa 4 acres..
Grade II listed country house c.1600 with Georgian extension
An impressive Grade II listed country house set within around 4 acres, White Lodge combines striking period character with extensive living space. The main house offers four reception rooms, six/seven bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms across generous, high‑ceilinged rooms that take advantage of long countryside views. Grounds include a tree‑lined drive, lawns, wildlife pond, orchard, vegetable garden, decked viewing area and a hardcourt tennis court.
Practical outbuildings include a detached one‑bedroom coach house above garaging and workshops, plus a double garage with electric doors. The property is already set up with oil central heating and private drainage; the coach house could suit dependent relatives, a holiday let or a studio, subject to any necessary consents. Broadband is very slow and mobile signal is average, so buyers needing fast connectivity should plan accordingly.
Buyers should be aware this is a Grade II listed building (dating from c.1600 with Georgian alterations), which restricts alterations and can complicate modernisation or extension. The house’s size, age and listed status mean ongoing maintenance and potentially significant repair or upgrade costs; the oil boiler and private drainage are notable running‑cost items. EPC is exempt due to listing.
This property will suit families seeking long‑term country living, buyers looking for a substantial character home with ancillary accommodation, or owners wanting a private rural estate close to coast and regional centres. It’s a rare and versatile offering, but best for purchasers comfortable with heritage property ownership and the associated responsibilities.
