With a rich history, this enchanting Grade II Listed manor is peacefully situated, offering splendid south facing views over the rolling Devon hills. The main house features six bedrooms, including three generously sized suites, along with an additional substantial four bedroom detached barn conversion. Set within three acres of parkland, the property exudes grandeur and presents a wealth of versatile living and income opportunities. Blagdon Manor is a Grade II Listed home dating back to the Tudor period, with significant later additions from the Georgian era. Featured in the Domesday Book, it stands as one of the most important residences in the historic West Devon parish of Ashwater. Today, this property would suit those seeking a luxurious lifestyle, with the added benefit of approximately three acres of delightful parkland gardens surrounding the home, from which fine views towards Ashwater can be enjoyed. The residence exudes elegance, architectural flair, and charm, and offers a wealth of character alongside many modern comforts, including outstanding bespoke oak cabinetry. A large four bedroom detached barn, located across the courtyard, also boasts considerable character. It has previously been used as holiday accommodation, generating valuable income, and enjoys its own level and enclosed garden space. Our clients have lived at Blagdon for around eight years, during which time they have carefully and meticulously transformed it from a boutique hotel and restaurant retreat into a superb private residence. This transformation is now virtually complete, allowing incoming purchasers the opportunity to add their own final touches. Regardless, the quality of this property should not be underestimated. It is being sold ready for immediate occupation, with no onward chain. The property is accessed at several points around its perimeter. The formal entrance on the eastern side leads into an inviting hallway, featuring an impressive original slate floor that immediately sets a refined tone. The main sitting room is both bright and welcoming, with dual aspect windows, including a bay and a large sash window, offering lovely views over the grounds. A striking polished marble fireplace with an inset wood burning stove creates a beautiful focal point. Built-in cupboards provide additional storage. Adjacent to this room is a large home office. It features an extensive array of built-in cabinetry, with shelving, storage and a desk, along with the original functioning safe. This room is ideal for remote working and has space for more desks or workstations if needed. The formal dining room adds further charm, with wooden flooring, a dado rail and a feature fireplace that includes a substantial wooden lintel and a carved stone dated 1683. Planning consent is already in place to reconfigure this room into a new kitchen, which would transform it into a light and spacious central hub. The conservatory wraps around the east and south elevations of the house and is currently used as a gym and sitting room. As a conservatory has been here for many years, it is highly likely the local authority would support an application for a replacement structure as it doesn’t form part of the listing. The existing kitchen is fitted with stainless steel units, an electric oven, dishwasher, induction hob, two sinks and a powerful extractor hood. This space has potential to be converted into a gym, studio or leisure area if the kitchen is relocated. In the historic west wing of the house, two further reception rooms provide both atmosphere and character.

This wing also benefits from its own entrance with porch and a newly fitted kitchen with integrated appliances including an electric oven, induction hob, microwave and dishwasher.

A bold use of colour, beautiful built in wardrobes and WiFi controlled lighting design combined with its location in the eastern wing of the house create a uniquely private and luxurious retreat for the owners of the manor. Each bedroom is individually styled, tastefully decorated and full of charm. Many of the high quality beds, mattresses and furnishings are recent purchases and may potentially be available by separate negotiation. The property has been redecorated throughout using premium paints from brands such as Zoffany and Benjamin Moore. Newly fitted carpets unify the house while allowing each room or suite its own distinctive style and character.
