The Way House is a handsome, detached 1930s family home with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 4 reception rooms, two-thirds of an acre of mature garden backing onto Downe House School’s woodland. Between Cold Ash and Curridge, 5 mins from the M4, with excellent private schools close by. Location Red Shute Hill is an old road that runs between Curridge and Cold Ash, on the outskirts of Newbury in West Berkshire. Property Set back from the road behind a fence and mature hedge, The Way House feels wonderfully private and secluded without being out on its own. The large block-paved drive comfortably accommodates six or more cars. The Way House was built toward the end of the 1920s for the first owner, Robin Milford, a respected composer and at the time, the music teacher at Downe House School. Milford studied under Gustav Holst and Ralph Vaughan Williams at the Royal College of Music and was a close friend of Gerald Finzi. Whilst clearly a large house at nearly 4,000 square feet, it doesn’t feel cavernous inside, instead feeling nicely homely. “It’s such a nice quality, solid, airy house. That's exactly what we like about it. We bought it for the bones, then we did up the inside. “In the bathrooms upstairs, there’s a solid marble floor and walls, everything in there is solid. This is a welcoming country home, from the storm porch that shelters you, visitors and packages from the elements, through to the end of the long garden with its gate into the woodland beyond. Hallway The warm welcome begins at the front door. Inside the generous hallway, the neutral bright white walls are contrasted with a wealth of warm oak, most notably the beautifully finished bespoke staircase with barley twist newel posts and spindles. Deep oak ogee skirting boards and solid oak flooring run from hallway to sitting room. “We had the stairs made. And all the flooring is solid oak. It's not engineered oak, it’s solid oak.” Natural materials run throughout the house, with granite, slate, marble and travertine, with original old stone and red brick making appearances. Sitting room with formal dining area and garden room The generous proportions of this room mean it can easily be divided into two areas. The current owners have chosen a formal dining area with a table that can comfortably seat eight, accompanied by a baby grand piano to the front, with a classic sofa suite providing comfortable seating around the fire to the rear. The original wide stone fireplace gives the room a period focal point. Currently fitted with a gas stove for instant warmth and atmosphere, it could easily be returned to a solid fuel grate if desired. The room is kept light and bright during the day thanks to the windows on three walls. Metal Crittall-style French doors open into the garden room, which in turn has sliding French doors onto the expansive south-facing garden. “This is where we sit and drink our coffee in the winter.” This is also the perfect spot to sit back and watch the visiting birds and wildlife. “We get lots of visitors in the garden. We put up deer-proof fencing to stop the deer jumping in and eating things. We get rabbits, squirrels, voles and all sorts of birds – garden birds, song birds, birds of prey, red kites... We woke up one morning, and there was a little barn owl, obviously very tired, just sitting outside on the air conditioning unit. It was there all day.” Kitchen/breakfast room The kitchen/breakfast room is the sociable heart of this family home. An inky blue 2-oven 2-plate Aga is the magic ingredient when it comes to autumnal stews and winter roasts, while the eye-level double oven (one with integrated microwave) and 5-ring halogen hob offer convenience for warmer months. Natural materials abound in this highly practical kitchen. These include the slate flooring, solid oak shaker-style cabinetry, granite counters and splashbacks and deep ceramic Belfast sink, with red brick accents in the chimneybreast. A wealth of cupboards and wall units provide plenty of storage, with the breakfast bar having storage on both sides as well as the end. The expanse of work surfaces ensures you’ve more than enough counter space for whatever culinary delights you’re creating. Hidden amongst the cupboards is the integrated dishwasher. Beyond the kitchen is the large breakfast area, perfectly sized to host a long refectory table with additional space for a sofa or large dog crate. French doors lead out into the long, south-facing garden with internal doors to the right leading into the family room. Family room This generously proportioned room means everyone can decamp to their favourite spot on a selection of sofas and armchairs, making the most of a widescreen TV, media centre, book cases or whatever you choose to furnish it with. Windows on three walls and borrowed light from the kitchen/breakfast room fill the space with natural light. In the evening, the gas fire creates instant warmth and ambience. French doors lead out onto the patio and into the garden, making this a lovely space for big family get-togethers, social gatherings and all-year-round living. Utility An unusual C-shaped room, this could easily be used as a boot room, laundry room, utility room and storage space. All at the same time. Oak shaker-style cabinets sit beneath a laminate worktop with attractive stone-effect tile splashbacks. There’s a stainless-steel 1½ bowl sink and draining board, adjustable shelves and a range of tall cupboards. As with the rest of this house, storage is plentiful and well considered. The boiler is new, installed less than a year ago. The washing machine is built in. A side door leads out to the gated back garden. Study Ideally sized to be used as a home office, study or library. Dual aspect windows look out to the side of the house and the driveway and porch. Gym/garage From the outside it’s clear to see this was once the garage. Today it’s a large, air-conditioned home gym, furnished with rubber matting and double mirrored cupboards. Windows on two walls and a side door further add to this room’s versatility, which could be returned to a garage with relatively little work. Cloakroom Recently refurbished, the cloakroom has half-height real travertine wall and floor tiles, a contemporary close-coupled WC with wall-hung hand basin, and a chromed ladder-style towel rail. “We’ve literally just done the family shower room and downstairs cloakroom.” UPSTAIRS – FIRST FLOOR The spacious wrap-around landing retains an original red brick fireplace, a nod to its 1920s origins before central heating came as standard. Beside this is a little reading nook. The red brick is a nod to the location – Red Shute originates from the red clay that can be found in the area. Additional storage is tucked into corners and beneath stairs, some bespoke and recently added, some original with latched wood doors. A wide triple window looks out to the rear garden and, further along the landing, a pair of Velux windows keep things light during the day. From the landing you have access to the principal and three bedrooms, with stairs taking you up to the next floor for the fifth bedroom and ensuite. Principal bedroom This generously proportioned bedroom feels like it’s occupying its own wing in this spacious house. “We've got a six-foot-wide bed in our room and you wouldn't notice the size, the proportions of the room are so big.” The super-king size bed looks like a standard double in this spacious bedroom, and there’s still more than enough space for accompanying bedside tables, chests of drawers, a dressing table and a sofa or chaise longue. Flush bespoke fitted wardrobes provide a wealth of storage while maintaining an uncluttered feel. Windows on three walls fill the room with natural light, while air conditioning ensures the room stays comfortable in the increasingly hotter summers. The end window has a fantastic view down the length of the garden to the woods beyond. Air conditioning means that even during a heat wave this is a cool, tranquil haven. Ensuite Larger than most family bathrooms, this ensuite bathroom is well equipped and beautifully finished in real marble. The wide shower enclosure has thermostatic controls, a large rainfall showerhead and a handset on a riser bar. The freestanding double-ended bath sits beneath the window, perfect for reading a good book as you enjoy a long relaxing soak. “The bathroom is a tranquil space for any person, it’s perfect to get away from the rest of the family and have a nice bath. It’s quite spa-like.” A double sink vanity unit sits beneath corresponding double mirrored cabinets with spot lighting overhead. The room is further filled with natural light from the two opposing windows. Towels are kept warm and to-hand with two ladder style radiators; a tall radiator sits beside the shower enclosure and a wide radiator sits beside the bath. Set back on either side of the shower enclosure are two built-in cupboards, ideal for stacks of fresh towels and linens, as well as cleaning products and more. “We had a lot of bespoke storage put into the house by a master carpenter cabinet maker. It’s now got a lot of storage, which we didn't have when we first got here.” Bedroom two Another generously proportioned bedroom, this time with period features that include a solid stone fireplace and two built-in cupboards with original latched doors. The room is filled with light thanks to the windows on three walls. One window, with views down the garden, sits above what would make a lovely bright desk space between the cupboards. There’s ample space for a sofa as well as the usual bedroom furniture, which would make this a great bedroom-cum-sitting room for an older child. Bedroom three With a nod to the creative background of the original owners, this room has a beautiful stained glass porthole window featuring a rampant red lion on a deep blue background, with a period brick fireplace tucked away in a corner. This well-sized double bedroom has a built-in wardrobe with period latched door and a picture rail that encircles the room. The window looks out to the front of the house and the open fields beyond. Bedroom four The smallest of the bedrooms, this still provides space for a double bed, bedside table and chest of drawers. This would make a great guest bedroom or second office, should more working from home space be needed. Being opposite the principal bedroom, it would also be ideal as a nursery or young child’s bedroom. Family shower room This spacious shower room has been newly refurbished. The marble tiling is of note, with the huge sheets of marble in the shower beautifully juxtaposed by the delicate herringbone tiles on the surrounding walls. “We've used high-end materials throughout the house. The marble tiles in the bathroom took four men to lift!” The walk-in shower has thermostatic controls, an adjustable spray pattern shower head with a handset on a riser bar. Set into the wall are two shelf recesses, keeping shampoos and cleansers close to hand, while towels are kept warm and within reach on a stylish anthracite ladder-style radiator. A wide mirror sits above a floating double sink vanity unit, with a close-coupled WC against the window wall. Wide windows fill the room with natural light. SECOND FLOOR Follow the turned oak staircase up another floor and you reach the former attic space, now a bedroom with ensuite bathroom. The Velux window overhead ensures the stairs are well lit, with the landing and two eaves storage cupboards providing handy storage space. Bedroom 5 Velux windows on two aspects ensure plenty of natural light, with the quad set giving incredible floor-to-ceiling views across the garden to the woods beyond. This double bedroom is fitted with air conditioning to keep things pleasantly comfortable no matter how hot the day outside. Shower room The spacious bathroom has a corner bath with mixer taps and handset. There’s a vanity topped hand basin with shaver socket, a close-coupled WC and a ladder-style chromed towel radiator. The walls and floor have real travertine tiles with a decorative mosaic band. Outside The house is set back from the road behind a fence and mature hedge. Through the stone pillared entrance, you have a large block-paved driveway with plenty of space to park six or more cars. A mix of high hedges and trees screen the house from neighbours and the road, while the woodland behind and open fields opposite ensure you’re not overlooked. This is a wonderfully private house. “The garden was what sold the house to us. It’s spectacular.” The back garden is huge, the whole plot from front to back extends to two-thirds of an acre. Within the garden are numerous trees, some of which are believed to be up to 300 years old. “It's south facing, backed by trees and is the best part of an acre. It's got lots of old mature trees and shrubs. We just love the fact that some of these trees have been here for hundreds of years.” Running the full width of the house is a large block paved patio, which extends to the first of several sheds, others are hidden from view discretely tucked behind hedges and greenery. “I would say it's an English garden with Mediterranean touches. There are tropical plants and some maples which go bright red.” Heading into the garden is a new octagonal raised decking area. This has been designed specifically for outdoor dining, and in warmer months benefits from being partially shaded by the surrounding trees and hedging. “In summer, this is a lovely spot to sit and have a morning coffee, and an evening sundowner.” Continue further into the garden and you’ve a summer house, with electricity, should you want a quiet spot away from the house to think, read or just sit back and do nothing. Dotted throughout the garden are numerous ornamental trees and shrubs, including a particularly handsome acer, a tree palm, cherry tree and much more. This is a well-established, low-maintenance garden designed to be enjoyed rather than laboured over. “I would say some of these trees are exceptional. I mean, you can't buy a new house and get this.” It would be easy to forget you have neighbours in this very private garden. You’d be hard pressed to catch sight of anyone. “In different times of year, you get different things going on. You're also really, really sheltered, you don't see anyone here, thanks to all the trees.” At the end of the long lawn is a gate that takes you into woodland owned by the neighbouring Downe House School. Parking The house has a large block paved drive which provides parking for six or more cars. Situation Red Shute Hill is surrounded by pretty villages and sprawling countryside, ideal for long rambles. “We've just got some nice walks, you can walk all the way from Hermitage down to Hampstead Norreys. There's a new path down there that’s been put in along the old railway branch line.” For those who like a walk to include a country pub on a walk, your choices include The Bunk Inn, within strolling distance, while a little further afield you have Frilsham and Yattendon, between them home to The Royal Oak, The Pot Kiln and the Renegade Brewery Taproom & Kitchen. “There are lots of nice walks from here. There’s a nice walk down to The Bunk, which is the old country pub. You've got Grimsby Wood at the top. There’s even a fairly large herd of albino fallow deer nearby – so you can very literally see white harts as you walk around.” For dining out, you have your local, The Bunk Inn, and for something Michelin-inspired, you have The Woodspeen, the Vineyard, Goat on the Roof and Malverleys, which are all within a short drive. For culture, you have the iconic and award-winning Watermill Theatre (also a dining location), Arlington Arts, the Corn Exchange and the Living Rainforest.

Surrounded by beautiful countryside, Art House is a 'one-of-a-kind' contemporary home located in the charming village of Sutton-on-Trent. Carefully redesigned and extended by the current owners, the property has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise space and natural light, creating a stylish, low-maintenance home. Step inside and you're immediately greeted by a stunning open-plan living space and kitchen with vaulted ceilings and bi-fold doors opening onto a south-facing terrace perfect for entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling glass panels flood the interior with natural light. Every detail from the spiral staircase to the bespoke doors reflects the exceptional design quality. A large mezzanine area and separate sitting room add further character to this unique home. Upstairs, all the bedrooms feature their own stylish contemporary ensuite bathrooms, ideal for hosting overnight guests. Meanwhile, the principal bedroom enjoys a private dressing room and a balcony overlooking the garden. Outside, the garden is largely laid to lawn, with multiple spots for outdoor dining and relaxation. A detached stable block also offers excellent conversion potential as a studio, home office, gym, or guest annexe (subject to planning consent). Tucked away in a peaceful village location, yet well-connected to London and other cities via road and rail, Art House combines space, high-quality design, and privacy in a truly special setting. Sellers insights Art House is a contemporary home in a traditional rural setting. When we moved in, we redesigned and converted the property with the help of a well-known Canadian architect. We wanted to create light and open spaces that would be easy to maintain. Every inch has been designed to maximise both space and flow. We've incorporated unusual architectural details in the design like the Moroccan-style doors and the spiral staircase to give the house a distinctive look and feel. The open-plan living space and kitchen are perfect for entertaining and family gatherings. There's also a lovely, more traditional sitting room. The mezzanine space, which overlooks the ground floor, is incredibly light and versatile. I've used it as a study, but it would work equally well as a reading nook, a studio, or a creative retreat. The different living areas allow everyone to enjoy their own space. All the bedrooms come with individual ensuite bathrooms, which is ideal when friends or family come to stay no queues for the shower here! The garden is wonderfully quiet. There are several seating areas outside, perfect whether you're enjoying a morning coffee, dining al fresco with friends or having an impromptu BBQ. With the bi-fold doors on either side of the house, there's a lovely indoor-outdoor flow. When our grandchildren visit, they absolutely love running freely inside and outside the house. The garden is low maintenance too, ideal for a robot lawnmower! The stable block offers a huge amount of development potential. Subject to planning, it could easily be transformed into a home office, gym, creative studio, workshop, or even a guest annexe or Airbnb. It's a fantastic blank canvas. We love the peace and privacy here. The house is surrounded by mature trees and scenic countryside. There are some lovely riverside walks nearby where you can spot all kinds of wildlife, and fantastic places to visit locally, including Sherwood Forest. The area is steeped in history. Newark Castle is just a short drive away and Lincoln is a little further afield. We've thoroughly enjoyed living in Sutton-on-Trent. The village is home to people of all ages.

Set in a peaceful and idyllic location with views over the neighbouring church and river, this period residence features well-presented accommodation with good ceiling height and a rich history. The two principal reception rooms are dual aspect and offer wonderful views of the garden and charming inglenook fireplaces. The kitchen has been sympathetically extended with a breakfast room, flooding the space with natural light and connecting the indoors and outdoors. Two staircases provide access to the first floor and study space. Upstairs, the four double bedrooms are all dual aspect, with most overlooking the garden and/or the river and church. The principal bedroom and second bedroom are particularly spacious and full of character. Two bathrooms serve the bedrooms. The very private and beautiful gardens complement the charming rear facade perfectly. Well-stocked borders sit alongside lawns, paths, and patios. A substantial wooden pergola draped in fragrant climbers is a wonderful spot for entertaining and relaxing. The large garage with an integral door provides parking and utility space. Seller Insight Built in the mid-1500s, The Old Cottage and surrounding land was once owned by renowned artist, Walter Dendy Sadler, and has featured in some of his paintings. He designed the gardens himself which, to this day, retain the same infrastructure in the flowerbeds and trees. We stood in the garden and were struck by the beauty, and it was this, along with the characterful, large rooms and sense of history that all came together and simply blew us away, recall the owners. The location was also very appealing as transport links are excellent. The setting is truly idyllic with unsurpassed views of the river, meadows, garden, churchyard, and church tower. Lake Ashmore, in the village, is perfect for open swimming. The village has lots going on and it's a great place for people of all ages to enjoy everything it has to offer, including the annual regatta where our sons earned their rowing skills and a love of the water for which we will be forever grateful. Just take a step out of the front door or through the garden gate and you will find yourself immersed in nature. From our garden gate we can access the river to drop ourselves in for a quick dip or canoe. The garden is secluded and not overlooked, so it lends itself to entertaining and we have naturally become the 'go to' place for work parties and gatherings with family and friends. The jasmine-covered pergola is a wonderful feature and we're surrounded by the divine scent whilst dining or relaxing in the swing chair. The addition of the breakfast room has been quite transformative in how we have lived in the house and it has been much loved by all. Panoramic views of the garden, trees, and length of the beautiful old part of the property provide a scenic backdrop for a room where we can sit and be at one with the scenery. We tend to gravitate towards the older part of the house as it has a very special ambience and characterful features, such as the double-sided inglenook. We've celebrated christenings and birthdays here, as well as our annual Christmas party when the dining room setting comes into its own. There are many serene spots in the house where we sit and lose ourselves in the peace and views of nature which are interrupted only by the occasional barge passing quietly by. Village Information Hemingford Grey is situated along the banks of the River Great Ouse and is well-known as a very picturesque and sought-after Cambridgeshire village.

Set in around 2.67 acres, with gardens, paddock, woodland, a triple garage and a separate studio, Lillies offers space, privacy and flexibility, sitting on the edge of Christow village, while still being in easy reach of Exeter, the A38, A30 and M5. The Inside The house has a distinctive contemporary design, with white rendered elevations, honey-coloured stone and a slate roof with deep eaves. Inside, the feeling is light, open and calming, with floor to ceiling windows helping to frame the outlook and bring the outside in. The main living space sits at the heart of the house. The sitting room, dining area and kitchen/breakfast room work together beautifully, creating a sociable layout that feels relaxed and practical for everyday life, while also being ideal for entertaining. The sitting and dining areas are interlinked and share an exposed stone wall with a double-sided fireplace, giving warmth and character to the contemporary interior. Large sliding doors open directly onto the terrace and garden, so in the warmer months the house can open up and flow naturally outside. One of the more unexpected features is the study space, accessed via a hidden bookshelf door off the living room. It is a lovely detail and gives the house a sense of fun, while also providing a useful quiet space for working from home, reading or escaping from the busier parts of the house. The kitchen/breakfast room is generous and well planned, with plenty of space around a large central island and a wide oak work surface for informal dining. It has a relaxed country feel, with farmhouse-style units, built-in electric appliances and a slate tiled floor, but the layout keeps it firmly part of the main living and entertaining space. A real highlight is the built-in wood fired oven, perfect for pizza, roasts or relaxed cooking whatever the weather. The bi-fold doors beside it open directly onto the rear patio, making this a brilliant space for hosting, with food, drinks and guests moving easily between the kitchen and outside. Also on the ground floor are a utility room, boot room and cloakroom, which are all valuable additions for a home with land, gardens and plenty of outdoor space. Upstairs, the part-galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom suite includes a large dressing room with built-in wardrobes, an en suite bath and shower room, and its own balcony overlooking the garden, grounds and the views beyond. The guest bedroom has an en suite shower room, while the two further double bedrooms are served by the family bath and shower room. Two of the bedrooms also have access to a further balcony, again making the most of the outlook. The Outside Lillies is approached down a lane, with a gated turn-off leading into a large gravelled parking area with space for several vehicles. One of the real strengths outside is the garage building. This is a substantial detached structure and far more than just garaging. On the ground floor there is a triple garage, providing excellent storage and parking, but the scale of the building means it could lend itself to a wide range of future uses, depending on someone’s needs. It could work well for car storage, bikes, workshop space, a gym, hobbies, or potentially something more ambitious, subject to any necessary permissions. Above the garage is a really spacious studio with its own shower and WC. This gives the property a huge amount of flexibility. It could make a fantastic home office, creative studio, guest space or ancillary accommodation to the main house. There may also be potential for it to be used as a holiday let, subject to the necessary permissions. The gardens wrap mainly around the eastern side of the house, where a paved terrace looks over the lawn and out towards the paddock beyond. The lawn is bordered by post and rail fencing, creating a natural divide between the immediate garden and the land. There is also a further paved terrace to the front of the house, which faces west and enjoys the evening sun, but it is the rear garden that really adds to the way the house can be enjoyed. From the kitchen, bi-fold doors open directly onto a large patio area, creating a natural entertaining space that works wonderfully, especially with the built-in wood fired oven. From here, a sloped path leads up to a level lawn, where there is a summer house with power. This could work well as a garden store, home office, studio or simply a quiet garden room, depending on how a new owner wants to use the space. A further path leads down the side of the property to a covered seating area, ideal for sitting outside when you want to escape the sun or enjoy the garden in a more sheltered spot. Together, these outside spaces give Lillies a lovely balance. It is peaceful and calming day to day, but also a brilliant house for entertaining, with space for summer lunches, drinks with friends, family gatherings and pizza evenings whatever the weather. Behind the garage is a small area of woodland and the paddock lies beyond the garden and is bounded by a stream along the northern side. Altogether, the gardens, paddock and woodland amount to approx 2.67 acres. Location Lillies is tucked away, but not isolated, on the western side of the Teign Valley within Dartmoor National Park. Christow village centre is approximately 0.7 miles away and offers a good range of local amenities, including a community shop, doctor's surgery, a primary school, church, pub and community hall. The surrounding countryside is a major part of the appeal. The property sits close to Tottiford and Kennick reservoirs, with Dartmoor, the Teign Valley and open countryside on your doorstep, making this a wonderful area for walking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors. Moretonhampstead is around 6 miles away and offers further day-to-day amenities, while Exeter city centre is approximately 10 miles away, providing a much wider choice of shops, restaurants, schools, transport links and cultural facilities. The property is well connected by road, with the A38 Devon Expressway just 7 miles away, the A30 around 8 miles and the M5 motorway within 10 miles. Exeter St David's station, around 10 miles away, offers regular high-speed services to London Paddington and Waterloo, while Exeter Airport is 15.5 miles away.

Presented by James Cooper - Part of By Design’s network, with more than 25 years’ experience in the South Devon premium property market. Introduction Combe Barn occupies a wonderful position on the edge of Lustleigh, one of Dartmoor’s most sought after villages. Set within approximately 8.30 acres of garden, paddock and woodland, the property offers a superb combination of space, privacy, village access and immediate access to the surrounding countryside. The house itself is far larger than it first appears, extending to approximately 5,358 sq ft and providing generous, flexible accommodation arranged over two principal levels. With five double bedrooms, impressive reception space, a striking vaulted living room and lovely views across the wooded valley, this is a substantial home in a very special Dartmoor setting. The current owners acquired Combe Barn in 2007 with planning consent in place to demolish and build a new dwelling. Rather than lose the character of the original barn, they saw the potential to retain and rebuild the barn element while adding a significant new wing. The project was completed in 2009, creating the spacious and individual home seen today. The Inside The approach to the house leads to an impressive covered entrance, opening into a large hallway. From here, the scale of the property quickly becomes apparent. There is a wide staircase rising to the first floor, a cloakroom, and excellent space for coats, boots and everyday country living. The hallway continues past one of the double bedrooms, which has direct access out onto the terrace, before opening into the main living room. This is one of the standout spaces within the house, with a high vaulted ceiling, galleried landing above, and a substantial stone fireplace creating a strong focal point. Two sets of doors open directly onto the terrace, where the outlook stretches across the wooded valley beyond. Beyond the living room is a substantial games room, currently arranged with a full-sized snooker table. This is a wonderfully versatile space and could suit a variety of uses depending on lifestyle. From here there is access to a further bedroom, an office and a bathroom, with a staircase leading up to the kitchen area. On the first floor, the galleried landing overlooks the living room below and leads into the kitchen breakfast room. The kitchen is fitted with modern units and enjoys views out over the grounds and down the valley. A door also provides direct access outside, adding practicality to the layout. An opening leads through to the dining room, another generous space with a window to the side, three rooflights and a glazed wall overlooking the living room. It creates an enjoyable connection between the main living areas while still giving each space its own identity. At the other end of the landing are three large double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a staircase leading down to a particularly large bathroom and dressing room, creating a private suite with excellent proportions. The Outside For those who enjoy the outdoors, Combe Barn offers a wonderful amount of space and variety. The property sits in approximately 8.30 acres, made up of gardens, paddock and woodland, giving a real sense of privacy and freedom. The terrace is positioned to make the most of the views across the valley and provides a lovely place to sit, eat outside or simply enjoy the surroundings. From the land, you can walk through towards the community orchard and into the village, which adds enormously to the lifestyle appeal of the property. There are two driveways, a garage and an old stable, currently used for storage. The mix of garden, woodland, paddock and outbuildings gives the property flexibility, whether for family life, outdoor hobbies, animals, or simply enjoying a quieter Dartmoor lifestyle. Location Lustleigh is one of Dartmoor’s most attractive and popular villages, known for its pretty period homes, strong community, surrounding countryside and access to some of the National Park’s finest walking routes. From Combe Barn, the village centre can be reached on foot in around 10 minutes. Here you will find the village pub, church, community shop and post office, tea rooms and the community orchard. Walking down along the leat brings you to the cricket pitch, while continuing further opens up some of the area’s best countryside routes. For those who enjoy walking, riding or simply being outside, the location is superb. Lustleigh Cleave, Wrayland, Hisley Bridge, the river valley, Foxworthy and Manaton are all part of the wider landscape that makes this part of Dartmoor so loved. It is an exceptional place for those who want a genuine village and countryside lifestyle. Despite the rural feel, the property is not isolated. Exeter is approximately 20 miles away and the M5 can be reached in under 30 minutes. Newton Abbot is around a 20-minute drive and provides a wider range of shops, supermarkets and everyday amenities, as well as a mainline railway station with services to London Paddington taking from approximately 2.5 hours.

Key Features • Substantial Victorian family house extending to approx. 2,632 sq. ft • Five / six bedrooms • Four bathrooms and guest WC • Arranged over four floors • Architect-designed lower ground floor • Private York stone garden and patio, recently re-laid • Air conditioning (hot and cold) serves three rooms • Extensive bespoke joinery crafted in reclaimed pine • Highly sought-after off-street parking • Period features throughout including fireplaces, cornicing and exposed brickwork The Tour The lower ground floor has been thoughtfully reconfigured to create a generous, light-filled living level with direct access to the garden. A large reception room enjoys excellent proportions and a relaxed, informal atmosphere, making it ideally suited to both everyday family living and entertaining. Exposed brickwork features throughout the space, reinforcing the house’s period character and framing a Victorian fireplace with cast-iron insert, timber surround and marble hearth, which serves as a strong architectural focal point within the room. Beyond, the space flows naturally into the dining area, where an original working Victorian stove forms a striking centrepiece. Set within an exposed brick fireplace wall and framed by marble detailing, it adds both visual interest and practical charm, anchoring the room as a natural gathering space. The dining area connects seamlessly with the kitchen, creating a sociable open-plan arrangement without sacrificing definition between zones. The kitchen itself is arranged in a practical galley configuration. While intentionally understated in aesthetic, it is well specified, featuring fully integrated appliances, durable stone worktops and generous storage, creating a refined yet practical space. The layout allows for efficient day-to-day use without compromising circulation through the floor. Full height glazed doors open directly from the dining area onto the garden, drawing in natural light and creating a strong visual connection between interior and exterior. This level also benefits from an additional bathroom, enhancing its versatility for guests or extended family use. The ground floor forms a more formal and private layer of accommodation, well suited to principal living or bedroom use. To the front, a generously proportioned room enjoys abundant natural light through tall sash windows. The room retains strong period character, with detailed cornicing, hardwood flooring, and a Victorian fireplace set within an exposed brick chimney breast, combining architectural presence with a warm, lived-in feel. To the rear, the former drawing room is currently arranged as a bedroom suite, benefiting from high ceilings and generous proportions. A fireplace set within an exposed brick chimney breast provides a strong architectural focal point, while bespoke cabinetry crafted in reclaimed pine offers extensive built-in storage without overwhelming the space. The bathroom on this floor is elegantly finished in large-format natural stone tiling and fittings, reflecting the material palette used throughout the house and reinforcing a consistent sense of quality and craftsmanship. The upper floors benefit from recently installed wood flooring, enhancing cohesion and quality across the accommodation while remaining sympathetic to the house’s Victorian character. The first floor offers further flexible accommodation, including a front reception room that could equally function as an additional bedroom, with direct access to a luxuriously appointed en-suite bathroom. A separate guest WC is positioned off the landing, providing practical convenience for everyday living and entertaining. A further bedroom on this level is quietly positioned to the rear, enjoying generous proportions and retained period character. The second floor provides two further bedrooms, including a generous double room and a well-proportioned second bedroom. A family bathroom serves the floor, and there is also a secondary kitchen, offering useful flexibility whether retained as an additional prep space, utilised for multi-generational living, or adapted to suit a buyer’s preferred arrangement. Throughout the house, designer wallpaper by Nina Campbell has been used to add a refined decorative layer that complements the Victorian architecture without overpowering the original fabric of the building. The rear garden is a secluded and tranquil outdoor space, recently re-laid with original York stone paving. Steps lead from the lower ground floor to a generous patio area, ideal for outdoor dining, before giving way to a further paved section framed by mature planting and established greenery.
