luxury houses with pool for sale Newton Abbot, United Kingdom

Introduction Canonteign Manor is one of Devon’s most remarkable historic houses, set within around 10 acres in the beautiful Teign Valley. Grade I Listed and with origins reaching back centuries, it offers exceptional scale, character and presence, together with far-reaching views across the surrounding countryside. With its ancient stonework, mullion windows, granite fireplaces, grand reception spaces and wonderfully private grounds, it is a significant and atmospheric country property. Canonteign Manor was used as a private residential dwelling for many years prior to its change of use and, subject to the necessary planning consent, could once again make a wonderful home. Before arranging a viewing or making enquiries, interested parties should be aware of the current permitted use of the property, which is explained below. Planning Information Canonteign Manor is currently permitted for use as Sui Generis Holiday Let. The current owners obtained planning permission in 2019 to change the use of the property from C3 Residential Dwelling House to its present holiday let use. As such, buyers should be aware that the property is not currently permitted for unrestricted residential occupation as a C3 dwelling. Should a buyer wish to use Canonteign Manor as a private residential home, a change of use planning application would be required. By Design has contact with experienced planning consultants who are familiar with matters of this nature, and further guidance can be made available to interested parties should they require it. Buyers should make their own enquiries and take independent planning advice before proceeding. History A Domesday Manor, Canonteign was given to the canons of St Mary du Val in Normandy circa 1125 and later conveyed to the Prior and convent of Merton, in Surrey. After the Reformation it was granted to Lord John Russell and then passed through a series of owners. It was garrisoned for the King during the Civil War and taken by Fairfax in 1645. According to Lysons, it belonged to the Davy family in the 17th century. In 1812, Sir Edward Pellew, later Lord Viscount Exmouth, purchased the manor and it became a farm after 1828 when Exmouth built Canonteign House close by. It was restored by Lady Exmouth in the 1970s and, during recent years, the ancient house has been brought into the 21st century with extensive and sympathetic renovation. Today, Canonteign Manor is an extraordinary and beautifully maintained historic property, combining the character of its 400-year-old origins with the comfort and convenience of modern technology. It has been sympathetically cared for to ensure it continues to stand proudly for decades to come. Interior The real magic of Canonteign Manor is its generously proportioned and elegant rooms, which, although lit from mullion windows, are both tall and light. Most of the principal rooms have a focal point of a granite fireplace and enjoy spectacular views across the valley of the River Teign. From the main entrance, you step into the dining hall, an impressive space by anyone’s standards. With a stone floor, intricate wood panelling on the walls and beautiful stone mullion windows, it is a very special space indeed, with a substantial dining table which comfortably seats twenty guests. A large open fireplace provides a beautiful focal point. Moving through the dining hall, there is access into the cloakroom and rear entrance. There is also a staircase to the first floor. The kitchen has been very well designed to fill a large space without it feeling overwhelming. There is a large central island and plenty of storage. The AGA sits on one side of the room and the owner has added a large oven and hob to the other. Double doors open into the breakfast room, which has a grand fireplace with wood burner, creating another generous reception space. On the other side of the house, there is a spacious study, a snooker room and a formal sitting room. Each room has been decorated sympathetically in neutral tones to enhance the natural beauty of the building’s windows, stonework and period features. The main reception rooms are fitted with wood burners, creating inviting spaces in winter. The current owners have enhanced the property with LED lighting, refurbished bathrooms and carried out extensive work to the roof. There are two staircases which access the first floor, where you’ll find the bedrooms. The largest rooms are at either end of the house. The principal bedroom suite has been improved with the renovation of the ensuite to create a luxury space with high-quality fittings and finish. The principal bedroom is accessed via the dressing room, where there are numerous built-in wardrobes. The second and third bedrooms are also of a generous size and accommodate large four-poster beds. There are seven further bedrooms, all of which are bright, inviting spaces. They either have ensuite facilities or are very close to facilities. From the landing, a staircase takes you up to the second floor. The amount of space here is a real surprise, with exposed wooden beams, plenty of light and gorgeous elevated views across the grounds, valley and hills beyond. The main space here has previously been used as a comprehensive gymnasium but could suit a number of different uses, subject to any necessary consents. It leads into another substantial room which is set up as a games and TV room. It is large enough to create a cinema space if desired. Also on this floor are various store rooms, as well as a room with steam and sauna facilities and a further room currently set up as a massage/treatment room. The staff apartment, also on this floor, provides a generous living/dining room with lovely views, a fully fitted kitchen, bathroom and double bedroom. Exterior The house stands in simply landscaped grounds which include large areas of lawn and a park-like field providing space for grazing if required. The grounds are approached through a pair of electrically operated tall gates opening onto the gravelled drive, which leads to a generous parking and turning area beside the house. There is a further garden space to the far side of the house. Steps lead down to the outdoor swimming pool and large level lawn. The pool is currently decommissioned and may require attention before being brought back into use. This remains a lovely, private and sheltered area of the grounds to enjoy the sunshine. The grounds stretch to around 10 acres in total and gently slope to the lower boundary. The boundary is made up of mature trees, giving excellent privacy in all directions. Canonteign Manor is one of the South West’s most significant ancient houses. Presented in good condition and situated in a spectacular yet convenient location, it offers a remarkable combination of history, scale, privacy and setting. Location The nearest village is Christow, which also overlooks the Teign Valley and is popular due to both its location and good range of community facilities, including pub, village school, shop, sports fields, doctor’s surgery and clubs. Bovey Tracey, the popular town on the edge of Dartmoor, is around 10 minutes’ drive away. You’ll find a range of amenities there, along with the popular Devon Guild of Craftsmen. Exeter is a short drive away, accessible either via the A38 dual carriageway or the very scenic Teign Valley road and B3212. This lovely Cathedral city offers many restaurants and high-quality shopping outlets. There is also a very popular university and excellent range of schooling.

INTRODUCTION Tucked away in a peaceful semi-rural setting, Westerland Dale is a substantial and versatile detached home offering 6,172 square foot of spacious and flexible accommodation to suit a wide range of lifestyles. Originally constructed in the 1960s and owned by the same family for the last fifty years, the property has been significantly extended over time, most notably with the addition of an impressive indoor swimming pool complex that must be seen to be fully appreciated. Currently arranged as a five bedroom home over two floors, the layout includes four bedrooms on the first floor, along with a generously proportioned ground floor master or guest suite complete with en suite facilities. There are four reception rooms, three of which are part of the main house, with a sizeable fourth located above the garaging offering excellent potential for annex conversion or alternative use. The stunning indoor pool complex is a real highlight, featuring direct access to a large south facing sun terrace, ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Car enthusiasts will be delighted by the extensive parking and twin double garages, with the larger garage accommodating up to four vehicles and incorporating an inspection pit. The second garage also offers room for two cars and further space could be created by removing built-in cupboards and storage units. Set behind wrought iron gates and surrounded by well screened borders, Westerland Dale occupies a 0.79 acre plot with easy to maintain wraparound gardens. There's ample parking to the front of the garages, and attractive countryside views can be enjoyed from various parts of the grounds. While the property would now benefit from some modernisation and perhaps reconfiguration to suit contemporary tastes, it offers an exciting opportunity to create a truly outstanding home in a prime location. An early viewing of this lovely family home is strongly recommended to appreciate the scale and potential on offer. THE INSIDE Deceptively spacious and full of possibility, Westerland Dale is nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Westerland, near Marldon. The home offers generous living accommodation, an impressive leisure space, and exciting potential to update or reimagine the property as a contemporary family residence or even a Grand Designs style project. Set across two floors, the layout includes a series of flexible reception rooms arranged off the central hallway and kitchen, as well as a welcoming sun room to the front. The two principal reception rooms lead directly to the outstanding indoor swimming pool complex, which features its own shower room, sauna and changing area, whilst opening directly onto the south facing sun terrace. This space could easily be reconfigured to form a spectacular open plan kitchen/living area with its seamless access to the outdoors. Also on the ground floor is a study or additional bedroom, along with a spacious guest or master suite with en suite facilities. Upstairs, there are four further generously sized bedrooms many enjoying lovely views over the surrounding countryside as well as a family shower room/WC and there is scope to create an additional bathroom if desired. The large dual aspect fourth bedroom connects to a landing area with stairs heading down to the garages with a substantial reception room positioned above. This expansive space lends itself perfectly to conversion into a luxurious master suite, separate guest accommodation, or even a self-contained annex. Both double garages offer extensive secure parking. The larger garage includes space for up to four vehicles and an inspection pit, while the second can accommodate two cars and could be reconfigured to suit further needs. Together, these spaces open the door to exciting design possibilities that could enhance the home's layout and function even further. STEP OUTSIDE A set of private wrought iron gates leads onto the spacious driveway, with ample parking in front of both garages. As with the house itself, the grounds of Westerland Dale are surprisingly extensive, with large lawns wrapping around the property and offering an ideal canvas for keen gardeners or those seeking outdoor entertaining space.

With breathtaking views over the coastline, this remarkable property is designed for those seeking both elegance and tranquility.Flooded with natural light, the spacious interiors span three floors and include five generously sized bedrooms and five bathrooms, offering comfort and flexibility for family life or entertaining guests.The garden is a standout feature — an oasis of calm inspired by the Italian Riviera.

This is a rare opportunity to own a peaceful and luxurious retreat in one of the South West’s most desirable locations.SELLERS INSIGHT“It was the garden that first drew me to Belton House. Having grown up in France, I had always dreamed of owning an orangery, and I knew I wanted an established garden, sea views, and — if I was lucky — a swimming pool. Belton House ticked every box.When I saw the wisteria bloom for the first time that May, I knew I’d found something truly special. For the past 15 years, I’ve poured love and care into creating a Mediterranean-style oasis, using no pesticides so that birds, bees, and butterflies could thrive here. Torquay’s unique microclimate has allowed me to grow a huge range of tropical and exotic plants that would never survive elsewhere in the UK.We moved here from London looking for a slower pace of life, proximity to the beach, and excellent schools. Meadfoot Beach is just a ten-minute walk away, and the local grammar schools and 20 nearby beaches made this an ideal location for our family. Despite the peaceful setting, we’re only minutes from Wellswood and its cafés, shops, and restaurants — and the Osborne Hotel is just down the road with an indoor pool and tennis court, which has suited our lifestyle perfectly.Inside, the house feels bright and spacious, with thick walls and large rooms that open up to the sea view. We later converted the attic to create even more space for our growing family. The layout has worked so well over the years — when the children were downstairs with friends, we could barely hear a sound!This home has been our sanctuary. We've hosted countless dinner parties and summer pool gatherings — it’s a sociable, open space, yet it often feels like we’re in the middle of nowhere. Our neighbours have become dear friends, and we’ve created so many memories here.The garden is my pride and joy and will be dearly missed. Belton House is unlike anywhere we’ve ever lived — it’s more than a home; it’s a lifestyle, a retreat, and a little piece of paradise.”STEP INSIDEHidden behind a substantial stone wall and sleek sliding gate, Belton House is a true coastal retreat.From the moment you arrive in the courtyard — where a large feature pond surrounded by mature planting fills the air with the soothing sound of trickling water — you’re immediately immersed in a sense of peace and Mediterranean charm.Step inside to a bright, open hallway, where natural light pours through vertical window panes framing views of the pond. White-washed floorboards and crisp, clean walls give the home a calm, continental feel. For convenience, there is a cloakroom and WC off the hallway.The generously sized living room enjoys stunning ocean views through two large windows. A sleek built-in media unit and electric fireplace add warmth and function, making this a perfect space to unwind. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining room, which has patio doors opening onto a balcony overlooking the side courtyard.The flow continues into the stylish, contemporary kitchen, where patio doors lead to the front terrace and pond, allowing indoor and outdoor spaces to blend harmoniously. At its heart is a large central island with an electric hob, integrated sink, and dishwasher. A wall of cabinetry houses the fridge, freezer, oven, and microwave, creating a highly functional and beautifully designed space.Also on the ground floor is a spacious bedroom suite featuring fitted wardrobes, two large windows framing coastal views, and a luxurious ensuite with both a bath and a walk-in shower.On the first floor, a landing leads to a guest WC and a superb bedroom suite complete with a large double bedroom, dressing room, and an ensuite wet room. Velux windows draw in natural light and capture sea views, while the room is generous enough to accommodate additional living furniture — ideal for guests or extended family.The lower ground floor offers flexible living with three further double bedrooms: one with an ensuite bathroom, another with a Jack-and-Jill shower room connecting to the principal suite, which opens via patio doors onto the terrace overlooking the swimming pool. This level also features a well-equipped laundry room.Additionally, you'll find a study or library with fitted bookshelves, and a second reception room with patio doors leading out to the side courtyard — ideal as a garden room, home office, or additional lounge.USEFUL INFORMATIONServices - Mains gas, water, drainage and electric Tenure - Freehold Council Tax - Torbay Council (G £3,899.72) EPC - D Broadband - www.ofcom.org.uk
