Chapter House is a substantial Victorian home dating from 1887, set within approximately 1.44 acres of gardens, paddock and outbuildings. Arranged over three floors, the property retains strong period character — exposed beams, high ceilings and arched windows — while offering flexible living space including a triple-aspect living room, generous kitchen/dining/family room and four bedrooms. The grounds include three stables, a feed room, paddock and hardstanding, ideal for equestrian or smallholding use.
Practical strengths include mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, double glazing fitted since 2002, extensive off-street parking and a Freehold title. The setting is peaceful and rural yet within short driving distance of Chudleigh village amenities, good schools and the A38 for routes to Exeter and Newton Abbot — appealing for families seeking countryside living with commuter links.
Buyers should note a few material considerations typical of a late-19th-century granite-built home: the stone walls are understood to have no built-in insulation (assumed), so secondary improvements or upgrading insulation may be needed to improve thermal performance. Broadband speeds are slow (maximum around 16 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload) without an upgraded service. As with many period properties, ongoing maintenance costs should be anticipated for rooflines, joinery and stonework.
Overall this is a rare opportunity to own a characterful period property with significant land and equestrian facilities in a sought-after location. It will suit a family or hobby farmer who values historic features, space and privacy, and is comfortable planning sensible energy and connectivity improvements where required.
