House with garden and terrace Ashwater (United Kingdom)
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. The sitting room features a superb slate floor, an inglenook stone fireplace with an inset wood burning stove, a window seat, huge original hand crafted beams and an historic slate scald creamery.

French doors open directly to the garden, bringing in natural light and providing easy access to the outdoors. 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. Stylish display cabinets and a quality work surface complete the space. As this part of the house is self-contained yet connected, it is ideal for extended family, holiday letting, guests or those looking for independent living within a larger home. The property also includes a dedicated cinema room with tiered seating, sound conditioning, lighting design, 4k projection and 7.1 surround sound provided by a very high spec active/passive behind the screen speaker system.

The principal staircase is of generous proportions with two half landings, an elegant feature that leads to an extensive landing and six en-suite bedrooms. The first three bedrooms are particularly spacious. Each is beautifully presented with super king size beds and enjoys wonderful views over the gardens and surrounding grounds. The impressive master suite has a combined floorspace of over 580 sqft comprising a lobby, dressing room, bathroom, walk-in shoe store, and very generous main bedroom which is dual aspect with far reaching views over the Devon countryside. 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. Many of the shutters remain in working condition, and the house is warmed by oil fired central heating with recently fitted boiler. Blagdon Manor Barn Tucked just a few steps from the covered cobbled courtyard of the main house, across a private exterior courtyard, Blagdon Manor Barn offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history - beautifully restored for modern living, yet rich in character. With its picturesque, wisteria clad, stone façade and centuries old origins, the barn immediately captures the imagination.

Inside, the barn impresses with a bright, open plan layout that feels both sociable and serene. The main living area is nothing short of stunning, featuring a soaring vaulted ceiling that floods the space with natural light.

The spacious dining area comfortably accommodates a ten seat dining table and opens directly onto the garden via French doors - perfect for entertaining or relaxed summer evenings. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is a true centrepiece: dual aspect, with handmade solid oak cabinetry, granite worktops, a breakfast bar and a full suite of integrated appliances including electric oven, microwave, two under counter fridges, and dishwasher. A double butler sink and an Alpha range style cooker complete the luxurious, country-inspired feel. Also, on the ground floor is a separate utility room with washing machine, tumble dryer, integrated freezer and a convenient WC. Upstairs, the barn cleverly divides into two private wings, each accessed by its own staircase. The main sleeping area includes two generous super king bedrooms and one double. One enjoys its own fully tiled en-suite shower room with a luxurious rainfall shower, while the remaining two share a high spec family bathroom with premium fittings. The second upstairs area forms a self-contained suite, ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Set over two levels, it offers a peaceful living space on the ground floor and a super king sized bedroom above, complete with its own en-suite shower room. Step outside, and the lifestyle offering continues. The rear garden is a private, enclosed sanctuary featuring a level lawn, a wooden cabin that could serve as a summer house, studio or home gym and a raised decking area complete with six person hot tub. This area is perfect for barbecues or sunbathing - ideal for unwinding in total privacy, far removed from the main Manor House.

The expansive patio area is perfect for relaxing and enjoying al fresco dining when the weather permits. A delightful blend of lush lawns and parkland, the grounds are adorned with mature specimen trees that add character and stature.

Nothing compares to the peace and tranquillity we have found at Weir Run. It’s a sanctuary, a place where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life yet remain conveniently connected. While the Cornish coastline buzzes with summer activity, Weir Run offers a peaceful escape, a hidden gem. Yet, you are never far from adventure. Explore the rugged beauty of Dartmoor, discover historic sites, or wander through picturesque fishing villages. And for everyday conveniences, the charming Market town of Tavistock, birthplace to Sir Francis Drake, is just a short drive away offering delightful shops and restaurants. We’ve woven countless cherished memories into the fabric of this home-lazy days fishing on the river, idyllic picnics on the banks whilst watching the abundance of wildlife, Kingfishers, Otters, leaping Salmon & Sea Trout. It, s with heavy hearts that we’ve decided to move closer to our grandchildren in Virginia, who are calling us home. Being retired, we have kept busy by running Weir Run as a very successful Boutique B&B. We have met so many wonderful people and our repeat business is close to 50%. It is featured on the Booking.com website as “RIVERSIDE STAY” and our rating has always been 10/10. We will deeply miss our mornings spent watching the river awaken from our bed, a cup of tea warming our hands. We have been truly blessed to call Weir Run our home, and we know that the next owners will experience the same profound sense of peace and joy. This isn’t just a house; its a slice of paradise, a place where you can create your own treasured moments, surrounded by the beauty of nature. We hope you will feel the magic we have felt here.
