Set within formal landscaped gardens with incredible views and a private tennis court, the property is perfectly tailored for outdoor enthusiasts and families alike. For those looking for equestrian facilities there is five acres of adjoining land plus a substantial stable block available by separate negotiation. Occupying a prime position on the edge of the thriving town of Chudleigh, with easy access to Exeter, Meadow Court enjoys sweeping countryside views while remaining moments from major transport links—offering the ideal balance of rural seclusion and modern convenience. SELLERS INSIGHT “We purchased the land where Meadow Court now stands over 20 years ago. At the time, we had viewed the house next door and fell in love with the location — the peaceful countryside setting, the stunning views, and the proximity to the vibrant town of Chudleigh. When that property sold before we could make an offer, we thought we'd missed our chance. But as fate would have it, the seller also owned the neighbouring barns. As award-winning developers, we saw the potential immediately and were thrilled to have the opportunity to create something truly bespoke. From the very beginning, Meadow Court was a passion project — carefully designed to make the most of the views, the light, and the incredible setting. Over the years, it’s been the perfect home for both family life and entertaining. We've hosted countless special occasions here, from lively social gatherings to Christmases with the entire family gathered around the table in the dining hall — a space that has truly been the heart of our home. What we’ll miss most is the generous flow of the house — how the spaces connect so naturally and how the principal rooms are all filled with light and look out over countryside. The underfloor heating has kept the home comfortable all year round, and the fresh spring water supply is something you come to truly appreciate. Our children had a magical childhood here — playing in the gardens, racing across the lawn, and enjoying the rare luxury of their own tennis court. The surrounding fields have given us the feeling of space and privacy. We’ll miss the sun-drenched terrace, where we’ve enjoyed morning coffees, long summer evenings, and those unforgettable sunsets — especially in the winter months when the skies light up with brilliant red hues. Meadow Court has given us two decades of memories, and now it’s time for a new chapter, we know it’s ready for someone else to fall in love with it, just as we did.” STEP INSIDE The property is approached via a charming, cobbled courtyard, enclosed by attractive stone walling that immediately sets a tone of rustic elegance. A storm porch shelters the front door, with yellow climbing roses cascading beautifully around the entrance — a welcoming burst of colour against the perfect blend of natural stonework and contrasting cream render. A covered log store adds to the practicality and character of the courtyard, which exudes a sense of peaceful, timeless charm — offering just a glimpse of the unique atmosphere that defines this exceptional home. You enter into a truly stunning dining hall, a magnificent 30-foot space that immediately delivers a 'wow' factor. Exceptional in design, the room features a soaring vaulted ceiling, beautiful exposed wooden beams, and a solid wood floor, all framed by floor-to-ceiling oak windows that flood the space with natural light and offer captivating views over the grounds. A partial glass roof enhances the sense of openness and architectural flair, setting the scene for the quality and craftsmanship found throughout the home. An elegant staircase ascends to the first floor. From the very first step inside, it is clear this is a property in a class of its own. Flowing from the dining hall, the carpeted sitting room provides a warm and intimate retreat — a cosy, inviting space, ideal for curling up with a book or enjoying quiet family evenings. The generous farmhouse-style kitchen is a welcoming space bathed in natural light from dual-aspect windows and two sets of patio doors that open directly onto the garden.

On the west side of the property, steps lead down to the elegant drawing room — a sophisticated yet welcoming space, centred around a charming open fireplace. As with the rest of the house, natural light pours in from every angle, enhancing the room’s graceful proportions. A striking, curved floor-to-ceiling window frames serene views of the side garden, while patio doors open onto the rear aspect, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living and bringing the countryside views into the home. An inner hallway leads to the fourth reception room, currently utilised as a home gym but offering excellent flexibility to serve as a home office, studio, or additional living space if desired. Off the hallway, a further cloakroom and a well-equipped utility room provide practical touches, featuring authentic York stone flooring, fitted cupboards, and plumbing for washing facilities. This section of the property benefits from its own private entrance, and with facilities already in place, it offers outstanding potential to create a self-contained annex — ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or even income potential, subject to any necessary consents. The first floor is equally impressive, with a striking galleried landing that overlooks the dining room below, adding an architectural touch to the open feel of the space. The principal bedroom is a substantial retreat, beautifully designed to offer both luxury and practicality. A generous dressing room is complemented by an additional dressing area — perfect for both his and hers. The ensuite bathroom continues the home’s high standards, featuring a relaxing bath and a separate shower unit, all beautifully finished with neutral stone-coloured tiling, creating a serene and timeless atmosphere. The second bedroom suite, with its striking A-line feature beams, is another peaceful retreat, complete with an ensuite shower room that offers both style and practicality. Bedrooms three and four are generously sized double rooms, served by an adjacent family bathroom, ensuring comfort and convenience for all. Bedrooms five and six are equally well-proportioned, both featuring charming mezzanine levels that add character and a sense of space. These rooms share an adjacent shower room, making them ideal for guests, family, or flexible living arrangements. STEP OUTSIDE The grounds of Meadow Court are just as impressive as the interior, offering a seamless blend of manicured beauty and practical function.

The property is set within formal gardens, with a tennis court surrounded by mature trees, providing a perfect space for outdoor recreation, while a five-acre paddock and well-equipped stable block are available by negotiation.

Introduction 12 Hawkmoor Parke occupies a superb position within an exclusive private estate between Lustleigh and Bovey Tracey, surrounded by open countryside and the dramatic landscapes of Dartmoor National Park. The house is set centrally within its grounds and enjoys a peaceful setting with no passing traffic, while remaining exceptionally well connected to Exeter, Plymouth, the South Hams and Cornwall. The accommodation is generous and well balanced, with excellent reception space, four bedrooms and an attached four car garage. A southerly aspect floods the house with natural light throughout the day, while the elevated position provides far-reaching views across the moor and surrounding woodland. This is a home that offers both lifestyle and practicality in equal measure. The Sellers Story What first drew us here were the views. They stretch right across the National Park and out over the moor, and they are never the same twice. The light is constantly changing, and there is a real sense of openness that you notice the moment you arrive. With its southerly aspect, the house is filled with natural light throughout the day, yet in the evenings the stillness returns. On clear nights, the stars are extraordinary and even the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye. Despite the sense of space and privacy, the house never feels isolated. There is no passing traffic, just peace and quiet, and a wonderful feeling of being immersed in the landscape of the National Park. From the garden, you can step straight out onto countless walking routes, and it is not unusual to see buzzards circling overhead or deer moving quietly through the surrounding woodland. Day to day living here has always felt easy. Bovey Tracey is just a short distance away with all the amenities we need, and the access is excellent. The A382, A38 and A30 are all close by, meaning there are no narrow lanes to contend with. Exeter, Plymouth, the beaches and villages of the South Hams, and Cornwall are all within straightforward reach, making this a wonderfully connected location while still feeling tucked away. The house itself has been a joy to live in. In warmer months, we love being able to open it up and blur the line between inside and out, with the terrace becoming a natural extension of the living space. In winter, it is just as special. Closing the doors, lighting the log burner and settling in as the evenings draw in. The rooms are generous and well proportioned, so the house never feels cramped, whether it is full of family or friends. Our favourite room is the family room, a wonderfully social space where you can enjoy the views and step out onto the terrace through the large bi fold doors. In warm summer weather, opening the windows creates a gentle through breeze, making it a very comfortable home to live in. We have also been fortunate to have friendly, considerate neighbours nearby. Close enough to feel part of a community, yet with plenty of space around us to retain privacy and tranquillity. It is a rare balance, and one that has made living here truly special. The Inside The accommodation at 12 Hawkmoor Parke is generous, well balanced and arranged for both everyday living and entertaining. A welcoming entrance hall leads through to a series of well-proportioned reception rooms, all designed to take full advantage of the southerly aspect and far-reaching views. The sitting room is dual aspect and features a modern wood burner, creating a comfortable space to retreat to in cooler months. The contemporary kitchen forms the heart of the home and opens seamlessly into the dining and family room, making it ideal for both family life and hosting. Large openings connect these principal rooms directly to the terrace, allowing the house to open up to the outside during warmer weather. A separate study provides an excellent home-working environment and benefits from full fibre broadband (FTTP). Practicality is well considered, with a utility room and ground floor WC, along with direct access into the attached four car garage. On the first floor, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite is dual aspect, enjoying far-reaching views and ample storage, and includes a private en suite bathroom.

SELLERS INSIGHT Twenty-Two Wonderful Years at Ivory Some houses impress you on the day you first see them. The very best continue to reward you every single day thereafter. When we first drove through the gates of Ivory more than twenty-two years ago, we had an unmistakable feeling that we had arrived somewhere rather special. At the time we were returning to the UK after several years living and working in Brussels, looking for somewhere to put down roots for the next chapter of our lives. Like many families making an international move, our priority was finding not simply a beautiful house, but a community that offered an exceptional quality of life, outstanding educational opportunities and somewhere we could truly call home. Bishop's Stortford immediately stood out, and Ivory gave us everything we had hoped for—and so much more. Looking back today, it is difficult to imagine another home that could have been better suited to our family. Over the years, Ivory adapted effortlessly to every stage of our lives. It naturally became a place where friends gathered. The generous gardens, tennis court and games room were always full of life, while the abundance of space meant everyone could enjoy their own independence, with plenty of adult-free corners to call their own. Looking back, some of our happiest memories are simply of hearing laughter coming from different parts of the house and knowing that everyone felt so at home here. Beyond the house itself, the location proved every bit as rewarding. Having worked across Europe and travelled extensively, it was always reassuring to return home to such peaceful surroundings. Yet despite its wonderfully private setting, we were never isolated. Straightforward rail connections from Bishop's Stortford into London's Liverpool Street made commuting effortless when required, while spontaneous evenings in the West End, leisurely afternoons exploring Cambridge or early morning flights from Stansted were all remarkably easy to enjoy. Equally, some of our most treasured moments were much closer to home—a quiet walk through Hatfield Forest or simply wandering the surrounding countryside with the dog before returning to the peace and privacy of Ivory. Looking back, it is that rare balance between accessibility and tranquillity that we came to appreciate more with each passing year. If there is one room that best captures life at Ivory, it is the kitchen. Family breakfasts before work or school, Sunday lunches, Christmas celebrations and countless conversations over coffee have all revolved around this welcoming space. One of the unexpected pleasures has been just how much the surrounding area has enriched our lives. We originally chose Bishop's Stortford because of the exceptional choice of excellent primary and secondary schools, but we soon discovered so much more. Perhaps what we have appreciated most is the balance that Ivory offers. People often ask what we shall miss most. The truthful answer is that it is impossible to choose just one thing. We will miss opening the gates and knowing we are home. We will miss morning coffee overlooking the gardens, summer evenings on the terrace, the changing colours of the seasons and the simple pleasure of living somewhere that has always felt peaceful, welcoming and exceptionally well connected. Looking back over the past twenty-two years, we realise that Ivory has given us something that is becoming increasingly difficult to find—a genuine sense of balance. It has been a place where family life, friendships, fulfilling careers and quiet moments have all found their place. We can think of no finer legacy for a home than that. As we prepare to begin an exciting new chapter in Edinburgh, we leave with enormous gratitude for everything Ivory has given us over the past twenty-two years. Our hope is that its next owners will come to love it every bit as much as we have and create memories of their own that will last a lifetime.

Seller Insight Viola has been our home since 2012, and from the very beginning, it's been something truly special. We built this house ourselves with a dream of creating the perfect family home, and over the years, it has become exactly that and more. What first drew us here was the location. As you turn down the private road, there's an immediate sense of calm, it feels like stepping into another world, far removed from the noise and busyness of everyday life. That feeling has never faded. Because we built the house, we were able to create a space that perfectly balances family living with entertaining. We didn't cut corners when it came to comfort, and every detail has been thoughtfully considered. It's a home that feels luxurious, yet completely practical too. Features like the internal laundry chute have made everyday life that little bit easier. We've taken great care of the house over the years, and it's something we're really proud of. The kitchen is without a doubt our favourite room. It's the heart of the home - somewhere we can cook and spend time together while entertaining. In the summer, opening the doors creates a seamless flow into the garden, while in the colder months it still feels warm and cosy. It's a space that just works, no matter the season. The garden was always central to our vision. With its large wraparound patio, it's peaceful and private - a real escape. It's been the perfect place for long summer days and evenings, with the TV, sound system, and outdoor lighting creating a lovely indoor-outdoor lifestyle. This has always been a home made for entertaining and bringing people together. From movie nights in the cinema room when the children were younger, to hosting Christmas with family returning year after year, it's a house full of life and memories. There's plenty of space for everyone, so it never feels crowded- just warm and welcoming. The community here is something quite rare. It's quiet and private, yet always supportive when it matters, it's a lovely balance of seclusion and connection that's hard to find. What we'll miss most is the love, care, and thought that went into building this home. It's more than just a house to us - it's been a huge part of our lives, and leaving it won't be easy. We're moving to be closer to family, and we know it's the right time. We truly hope the next family will love this home as much as we have.
