Large garden and far-reaching Dartmoor views; ideal for family life and home working..
Detached four-bedroom home with two reception rooms and conservatory
Set on the outskirts of Chagford within Dartmoor National Park, this detached four-bedroom home sits on nearly a third of an acre and delivers generous internal space with panoramic rural views. The layout suits multi-generational living or guests, with two double bedrooms on the ground floor, two further doubles upstairs (one with ensuite), two reception rooms and a sizable conservatory opening to the garden. Large storage rooms, a workshop, garage and a timber garden room/office add flexibility for hobbies, home working or storage.
The gardens are a standout feature: mainly lawned with mature beds, two raised patios and long-distance views across open countryside towards Whiddon Down deer park. A raised veranda off the main reception room creates a sheltered spot to enjoy sunsets and the outlook. Parking is easy with a wide driveway, carport and garage.
Practical considerations include oil-fired central heating, an EPC rating of E and very slow broadband speeds — important for regular home-workers or streaming households. The house dates from the 1930s with later extensions; while well-proportioned, some areas and services may benefit from updating to modern standards. The property is freehold and sits in a very low-crime, affluent rural neighbourhood close to Chagford’s amenities and schools.
Overall this is a spacious, characterful family home in a highly desirable Dartmoor setting. It will particularly appeal to buyers seeking large gardens, countryside views and adaptable living space, and to those prepared to invest modestly in energy and connectivity upgrades to bring the house fully up to current expectations.
