luxury houses with terrace for sale Devon, United Kingdom

Situated in one of Exeter’s most prestigious residential addresses, Victoria Park Road is renowned for elegant period homes and leafy surroundings, whilst enjoying close proximity to the city centre and Exeter School. The setting offers a rare combination of architectural beauty and convenience. This distinguished Grade Il Listed townhouse, believed to date from the Georgian era with later Victorian additions, is an exceptional example of classical Exeter architecture. Handsomely presented with a stucco-rendered facade beneath a slate roof, the property unfolds over four beautifully proportioned floors, including basement and attic levels, offering great potential for multigenerational living and enjoys a desirable east-west orientation that welcomes natural light throughout the day. Having been cherished by the current owner for more than two decades, the house has been thoughtfully and sympathetically restored, preserving an abundance of original character whilst introducing subtle refinements suited to modern family living. Elegant period detailing remains at the heart of the home, including intricate Georgian joinery, decorative cornicing and ceiling roses, picture and dado rails, original working shutters, graceful staircases and a collection of fine fireplaces, notably the exquisite Adam-style examples within the principal reception rooms. The accommodation is both versatile and beautifully balanced. From the impressive reception hall, three elegant reception rooms provide superb spaces for entertaining and everyday living. The drawing room is particularly striking, centred around a magnificent floor-to-ceiling bay window overlooking the walled rear garden, complete with original working shutters and exceptional ceiling height. To the rear of the property, the garden room opens onto a private balcony with steps descending to the gardens below, creating a seamless connection between house and garden.

The second floor continues to impress with two additional bedrooms, a bathroom and a wonderfully atmospheric sitting room/snug, enjoying far reaching views towards the surrounding hills beyond the city. SELLER INSIGHT “Living at 7 Victoria Park Road has given me the best of Exeter life, combining a peaceful, private setting with easy access to the city centre, Cathedral, and the independent shops, cafés and restaurants of Magdalen Road. Despite being so central, the house feels wonderfully secluded. The house has been a fantastic home, offering flexible space that has adapted easily to different stages of life. Whether entertaining friends, hosting gatherings or enjoying quieter days, there has always been plenty of room. The garden room in particular is a favourite space, filled with natural light and overlooking the garden. The walled garden is a real haven and surprisingly private for such a central location. The mature planting attracts an abundance of wildlife, and I have loved watching the many birds and squirrels that visit throughout the year. A particularly useful feature has been the Victorian side extension, which provides independent access to the upper floors without passing through the main house. This worked brilliantly as my family grew up, giving older children a little more independence, and could equally suit someone looking to run a business from home or create a separate workspace. I have also loved how walkable everything is, with excellent schools, parks and city amenities all close by. What I will miss most, however, is the character of the house itself. Its period features, generous proportions and sense of history create a warm and welcoming home that has been a joy to live in.” Outside The approach to the property is equally impressive. A wide entrance from Victoria Park Road leads to an extensive brick-paved driveway providing parking for up to four vehicles, whilst elegant stone steps with wrought iron railings rise to the front entrance. To the rear, the beautifully enclosed walled garden offers a peaceful and private retreat, thoughtfully landscaped around a central lawn with brick pathways and richly planted raised borders filled with flowering shrubs and seasonal colour. A sheltered seating terrace beneath the garden room provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and entertaining, with direct access into the kitchen through French doors. Framed by mature planting and stone walling, the gardens extend to approximately 50’ x 43.5’ (15.5m x 13.2m), creating a wonderfully secluded oasis in the heart of the city. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains exceptionally well connected, with Exeter city centre less than a mile away, excellent rail links to London from both Exeter Central and St David’ s stations, easy access to the M5 motorway and Exeter Airport offering regular connections, including flights to London City Airport.

We have also loved watching the changing seasons unfold, with regular visits from herons, swans, pheasants and an abundance of other wildlife. There are wonderful walks straight from the doorstep along the River Exe and through the surrounding countryside, while the village pub is always a favourite destination. The gardens have been a labour of love. The terraces immediately outside the house create several inviting spaces for outdoor dining and quiet relaxation, all enjoying stunning panoramic views. The upper garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide colour and interest throughout the year, from vibrant azaleas, lilac, forsythia and rhododendrons in spring to magnificent hydrangea ‘Annabelle’ and ‘Limelight’ in late summer. The lower garden has a more natural feel, with carpets of bluebells and wild garlic in spring, alongside wild strawberries, ferns and hostas. A red sandstone cliff conceals a cave, currently used for kayak storage, with access down to the river, while a peaceful seating area overlooking the water has become one of our favourite places to unwind. The village has a wonderfully friendly and vibrant community, offering the best of rural living without feeling isolated. We have enjoyed the tranquillity of the countryside while appreciating how easily we can reach Exeter for shopping, restaurants, theatres, riverside walks and rail connections from St David’s station.

Seller Insight “When we first discovered the property, it was the setting that captured our hearts: the generous space, total privacy, and the rare privilege of direct access into the forest. We’re close to the beach, the train station, Exeter and the M5 all within easy reach, yet it feels like a peaceful world of its own. The house itself was calling out to be loved. It was tired and neglected, full of potential and character. It needed us and we’ve poured care, time, and joy into bringing it back to life. Nearly seven years on, it sings quite literally, alongside the birds that now fill the garden and forest. This home is so much more than bricks and mortar, it’s a way of life. Winter evenings in the hot tub under a frosty, star-filled sky; log fires crackling in the lounge or dining room while we gather for Christmas dinner and quiet mornings with a cup of tea under the holly tree, watching deer wander through the woods. We’ve loved growing our own fruit and vegetables, collecting fresh eggs, and enjoying the company of visiting wildlife including dormice, hedgehogs, foxes, deer, even the occasional pheasant casually strolling past the potting shed. The garden is alive with birdsong and bees, dragonflies flitting over the pond, and the comforting scent of roses as you arrive home. There are memories in every corner: summer days on the deck with family and friends, autumn evenings around the brazier, sports days and hide-and-seek in the garden, breakfasts with Vincent the vole and Peter the pigeon outside the window. The cellar has been a calming retreat for crafts and exercise, while the summerhouse has hosted many happy guests. We’ve enjoyed the balance of countryside and community, with dog walks at the beach, trips with the grandchildren to Haldon Forest Park, and lunches at nearby Kenton Park Estate or Powderham Castle. We’ve always said that Big Friendly Lodge gives you space — space to think, to grow, to be. Whether you want quiet or company, projects or peace, this house welcomes it all. It’s a home that adapts to you. Why are we leaving? Simply because it’s time. We’re getting older, and we want to pass this beautiful home on while it’s still full of life and in great condition, with a happy heart and ready for its next chapter.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

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.

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.

The house itself has been a joy to live in.

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.

While steeped in history, Little Wolleigh embraces modern sustainable living. A biomass boiler, solar thermal water system, and solar panels provide an impressive low-carbon footprint, plus fibre throughout the premises including the art studio, ensures this period gem remains as practical as it is picturesque. STEP INSIDE Approaching the house, you’re greeted by a substantial front door—likely original—set within a striking granite surround, a fine example of the history woven into this property. You enter into the dining room, where oak panelling sets a rich tone. From here, the accommodation flows into the living room, your eye immediately drawn to the impressive fireplace with large wood burner and parquet flooring. A third reception room showcases exposed wooden beams, adding to the farmhouse character. The layout is both generous and practical, with two staircases connecting the old and newer parts of the house. A large cloakroom/store and a utility room provide excellent everyday functionality. The kitchen is the heart of the home. Extended to create a luxurious cooking, dining, and entertaining space, it is designed with modern family life in mind. A box window overlooks the gardens, while French doors open onto a side patio leading to the greenhouse—perfect when cooking with fresh produce. A wood burner adds warmth and atmosphere in the cooler months.

SELLERS INSIGHT “When we first came to Little Wolleigh, we were looking for space, seclusion, and the freedom to live and work creatively. Having always lived with neighbours close by, we wanted somewhere private yet still near amenities—and this home gave us exactly that. The outbuilding has been the perfect art studio, while the extensive gardens have provided endless opportunities for our children and animals to grow, play, and explore. It feels so special that the house blends so naturally into the countryside; you’d hardly know it was here. There’s always a sunny spot to sit, and the orchard and trees have been a constant source of joy for us. We love being so close to the Moors—ideal for walking our dogs. The landscape is breathtaking in every season, from snowy winter walks to summer days on nearby beaches. The eco-friendly features have been a real benefit—our borehole, biomass boiler, and solar panels mean the house is comfortable all year round with a low environmental footprint. The flexible layout has worked brilliantly for us, with bedrooms swapping as the children grew, and plenty of space for guests who love having their own area. This home has been the backdrop to so many memories: hosting home education groups of 30–40 children, bird of prey camps, birthdays, and visits from local people who remember playing here in their childhood. There’s ample parking, excellent fibre connection (even in the studio), and the outbuildings have given us incredible opportunities for work and hobbies. We will especially miss the magnificent Copper Beech tree at the centre of the garden—it has always felt like the heart of this special place.” STEP OUTSIDE The grounds, extending to just over 3 acres, are nothing short of enchanting. A gardener’s dream, they are divided into distinct areas of interest, filled with fruit trees—The ancient orchard has dozens of apples, alongside pear, plum, quince and fig. A fenced enclosure is ideal for chickens or small livestock. In one direction lies the site of a former swimming pool, now reimagined with a thatched roof structure used as a seating area with patio space and box hedging, perfect for gatherings. Stone steps create a charming amphitheatre-style feature, which has been used for events such as home education groups. A bridge over a lily pond continues the journey through the grounds, with hedging marking the boundaries and ensuring privacy. The outbuildings are equally impressive. A large detached, listed barn with mezzanine (once a hayloft) and adjoining store offers huge versatility. A further outbuilding, currently used as a home office, enjoys triple-aspect windows and bifold doors, a cloakroom, and kitchenette—ideal for work or hobbies. A door leads to a store room housing the water filteration system and stairs to an attic room providing additional storage. Another barn houses the biomass boiler, alongside further store rooms, ideal as a workshop or home gym. A large greenhouse finishes the outbuildings, with a pump to regulate temperature it’s an ideal environment for home growing all year round.

INTRODUCTION Commanding a magnificent position between Dartmoor National Park and the South Devon coast, Bickington Barton is an exceptional 16th-century grade II listed country residence that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern rural living. Set within just over six acres of glorious Devon countryside, this distinguished property offers a rare lifestyle opportunity — combining character, versatility, and breathtaking views in equal measure. Beautifully presented, the main house retains a wealth of period features, from exposed beams and granite fireplaces to graceful proportions throughout. The grounds encompass a range of traditional barns, a stable block, and a former piggery, presenting exciting potential for equestrian use or a thriving smallholding. With ample space and privacy, the property also lends itself to multi-generational living or guest accommodation, with scope to create an impressive annex or holiday retreat (subject to planning consents). Peacefully positioned on the edge of a charming rural village, Bickington Barton enjoys an idyllic countryside setting, offering an unparalleled Devon lifestyle of comfort, heritage, and natural beauty. HISTORY With roots reaching deep into England’s early history, Bickington Barton occupies land first settled during the Saxon era and is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. The property forms part of a rich rural heritage, in the company of other period homes and barn conversions, all built around the 15th-century village church — a timeless setting that has evolved gracefully through the centuries. Once owned by the Bickford family, a name long associated with local prosperity, the estate bears a proud connection to William Bickford, inventor of the pioneering Safety Fuse in 1831 — a creation that transformed the mining industry by drastically improving safety of the miners. Many of the home’s original architectural features remain beautifully preserved, including granite pillars and fireplaces, and an exquisite plank-and-muntin screen, each echoing the craftsmanship of a bygone age. The surrounding landscape tells its own story. Just down the lane, The Dartmoor Halfway Inn recalls a time when farmers transporting livestock to coastal market ports would rest overnight — drawn by the fertile land and natural wells that sustained travellers and animals alike. Today, gazing across the rolling fields, it is easy to imagine the scene centuries ago — animals grazing on the same rich pasture and the enduring rhythm of rural Devon life continuing much as it always has. STEP INSIDE Granite pillars herald the entrance to Bickington Barton, inviting you into a home where history and character are woven into every detail. Upon entering, the reception room immediately impresses, featuring a large fireplace, wooden flooring, and a window overlooking the picturesque garden, complete with fitted wooden shutters. A beautifully preserved plank-and-muntin screen adds further historic charm, creating a welcoming space that truly oozes character. Adjoining the reception room, a cozy snug offers an intimate retreat, with its own fireplace and traditional window shutters, perfect for quiet evenings. The living room is a statement of grandeur and warmth, boasting parquet flooring and another impressive fireplace with a feature inset arch to the side which the current owners , decorate with seasoned logs. A door from the living room leads directly to an external porch, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The kitchen is a bright, inviting heart of the home, designed around space for a central kitchen table, ideal for family gatherings. Solid oak worktops and wooden units frame an electric AGA with electric module, complemented by a bespoke mantel. Original granite flooring and marble tops surrounding the sink lend timeless elegance. Adjacent, a utility room — originally the kitchen — provides practical washing facilities and leads to a spacious pantry housing large electric batteries (available by negotiation). The property also includes a boot room, with a range of units, ideal as kitchen overspill plus access to the rear courtyard so ideal for bringing in dirty boots and pets. A cloakroom adds convenience with attractive tiled flooring linking to the boot room. Ascending to the upper floors, the property offers six generously proportioned bedrooms, arranged around a split-level landing that reflects the home’s historic character. The main bedroom is a particularly impressive space, once likely two separate rooms, now offering a spacious retreat complete with a modern ensuite, dressing room, and breathtaking views across the surrounding Devon countryside. Five of the bedrooms enjoy stunning vistas, with windows overlooking the front and side of the house and the sweeping landscape beyond. To the rear of the house is a highly versatile space easily serving as a self-contained annex, with a large bedroom, adjoining sitting space, ensuite bathroom, and a private entrance from the courtyard, ideal for guests, extended family, or potential rental use. The main bathroom is elegantly appointed, featuring a sunken bath, and wooden flooring. SELLERS INSIGHT “When we first discovered Bickington Barton, we instantly fell in love with its rural tranquillity and timeless charm. We wanted something that felt truly remote — surrounded by countryside and nature — yet still close enough to everyday life. Here, we found that perfect balance. The house is just minutes from everything — the moors, the coast, and nearby towns — yet when you arrive, it feels as though you’re miles from anywhere. As a family, we needed to be near good schools and local amenities, and honestly, we didn’t think we’d find somewhere that offered both practicality and seclusion. Then we found Bickington Barton — and it changed everything. It’s so quiet and private, and the setting has given us a lifestyle we only ever dreamed of. We always wanted to try our hand at a smallholding, especially while the children were young enough to enjoy it, and this property gave us the confidence to do just that. It’s given us all a new lease of life — fresh air, space, and the joy of living in tune with the land. We adore the character and history of the house. It’s incredible to think of the generations who have lived here before us, and the many centuries of stories within these walls. Every quirky feature — from the granite pillars to the old plank-and-muntin screen — adds to its charm, and we’ve loved every single one of them. As the children grew, the space here has been a blessing — everyone has room to spread out without ever feeling on top of each other. The bedroom at the rear has been ideal for visiting family and later became a perfect space for our eldest son, giving him independence while still keeping him close. Outside there are no limitations, life flows easily between swimming in the pool during summer, lounging or working in the garden, or tending to the animals year-round. Living here has brought us such a healthy, balanced way of life, and we’ll always be grateful for the years we’ve spent as part of this incredible home’s story. Now, it’s time for someone else to fall in love with Bickington Barton and make their own story.” STEP OUTSIDE The front of Bickington Barton is approached via a private driveway, offering ample parking and a five-bar gate leading to the yard. A detached barn provides versatile storage and features an undercroft. Stone walling surrounds the garden, which is accessed via a picturesque gate leading to the front door. Multiple seating areas have been created to take full advantage of the stunning surrounding views, with raised decking offering a perfect vantage point to enjoy sunsets across the valley. The garden itself is beautifully maintained, with a lush lawn, mature trees, and a variety of sunlit spaces for relaxation. A gate from the garden leads to the heated swimming pool, powered by an air source heat pump, with a stone-built pump house tucked discreetly behind. Another gate opens into a secret walled garden, providing a private retreat enclosed by ancient stone walls. The rear of the property is highly practical, featuring a courtyard with direct access to the utility room, ideal for pets. A rear concreted yard connects to a listed former piggery, retaining cobbled flooring, original granite troughs, and visible runs where piglets would have moved from each sow — a rare and evocative glimpse into the property’s agricultural past. Stone-built stables comprise four spacious boxes and a tack room, all fitted with lighting, concrete troughs, and a water supply. Attached is a large workshop, with an upper floor hayloft providing additional barn space with level access to the rear yard.

Introduction Bagpark is a 19th-century country estate within Dartmoor National Park, set in the valley of the East Webburn River, about a mile from Widecombe-in-the-Moor. Once known as Widecombe Manor, the house has been restored and is built from local granite and slate, with leaded casement windows. A long private drive winds through mature parkland to reach the house. The estate extends to around 41.58 acres of gardens, woodland and deer park, with no public rights of way across it. Alongside the main house, there is a self-contained wing, two separate cottages and a good range of outbuildings. A further 12.64 acres is available by separate negotiation, meaning Bagpark can be purchased as a whole or in two lots. Location Widecombe-in-the-Moor is about a mile away. The village has a shop, two pubs and a lovely café. Its church, St Pancras, is known as the Cathedral of the Moor. Open moorland is within easy walking distance, with Chinkwell Tor and Honeybag Tor close by. Ashburton, with restaurants including Emilia’s Italian, and Bovey Tracey are both about seven miles away. The A38 provides quick access to Exeter and Plymouth. Mainline trains from Newton Abbot, Totnes and Exeter run direct to London Paddington, with journeys from around two hours. Seller Story “Bagpark has been such a big part of our lives for the past nineteen years. It’s where our children have grown up, where we’ve shared countless occasions with family and friends, and where we’ve enjoyed having the countryside right on our doorstep. Above all, we’ve valued the extraordinary peace and privacy. There are no public rights of way across the estate, and we can walk the dogs for half a mile without leaving our own land. From the house, we can also walk over three tors and down into Widecombe for lunch at one of the two pubs or the village café. Bagpark has always been a house for family and friends. There’s room for four other couples to stay alongside our children and their partners, and we’ve hosted three of our children’s weddings in the grounds, with marquees, bands and fireworks to finish the evening. Our grandchildren play games in the orchard and climb the trees. In summer, we have lunch on the patio; in the panelled dining room, we’ve held candlelit dinners, once seating thirty around our table. In winter, the hall is the place to be, drink in hand, with the wood burner going. The wildlife has been a constant pleasure. Buzzards circle overhead, mewing as they go, and land on their own table down by the pond. Every year, summer migrants arrive to breed here, including cuckoos, chiffchaffs, blackcaps, swallows and house martins. Otters and kingfishers visit, while geese with their goslings and ducks with their ducklings make use of the ponds. On dark nights, we can hear owls and foxes calling. We fish for sea trout, brown trout and the occasional salmon in the ponds and river. With no light pollution, the night sky from the courtyard is full of stars, and the Milky Way is clearly visible overhead. Spring is particularly special. We walk through millions of bluebells and thousands of foxgloves, beneath dozens of magnificent trees, all well over a hundred years old and all of them ours. It’s a real privilege. The trees are stunning. We’ve had gardeners who have worked at Kew, and tree surgeons who simply stand and gawp at some of the specimens. One of the Western Hemlocks is 40 metres tall. We are, after all, in the middle of a temperate rainforest, so they should do well. The land is productive, too. The soil is very fertile and, with the help of the greenhouse, we grow plenty of fruit, vegetables and flowers every summer. Our chickens live in a fox-proof pen and lay so many organic eggs that we give away dozens. We’ve bred deer and alpacas here, watching their young gambolling in the fields, and we produce our own venison steaks, sausages, burgers and mince. There’s a practical side to Bagpark as well, with two double garages, two well-equipped tool rooms, a large barn for storage and a well-heated gym. We will miss Bagpark dearly. Nineteen years is a long time, and over those years it has become so much more than a house to us. It has been the backdrop to our family life, a place where our children have grown up, our grandchildren have played and some of our happiest memories have been made. We have been incredibly lucky to call Bagpark home, and it will be very hard to leave somewhere that has given us so much. But homes like this are meant to be lived in and loved. We hope the next owners find the same happiness, freedom and sense of belonging here, and make memories of their own for many years to come.” Accommodation The Ground Floor The reception hall leads to the drawing room and panelled dining room, both overlooking the gardens and ponds.

Outbuildings The agricultural barn provides machinery and feed storage, a cold room, and garaging with workshop space. An oak-framed building houses a double garage and gym, with further stores also available. Gardens & Grounds The East Webburn River runs through the valley, bordered by wooded banks and accompanied by two large ponds. Sea trout, brown trout and the occasional salmon are found in the river and ponds. The estate is home to three species of wild deer, along with buzzards, owls, foxes, otters and kingfishers. The woodland dates from the 1860s and contains more than a thousand mature trees, including a Western Hemlock around 40 metres tall, Western Red Cedars, Copper Beeches and Douglas Firs. Hundreds of thousands of bluebells appear each spring. Created in 1995, the deer park is home to herds of fallow and red deer. A stretch of woodland known as the Judge and Jury Plantation is believed to have been a medieval meeting place. Closer to the house, there is an orchard of apple, plum and damson trees, a kitchen garden with raised beds, a greenhouse that came from the Hampton Court Flower Show, and a chicken run with water and electricity.

Arranged over four beautifully considered levels and extending to over 6,000 sq ft, the accommodation delivers a superb balance of scale, sophistication and effortless modern living. Every element has been crafted with meticulous attention to detail, from the superior specification and intelligent home technology to the seamless flow between the principal living spaces and the series of expansive sea-facing terraces. Designed for both everyday luxury and exceptional entertaining, the home includes six bedrooms, a cinema room with a 144” Lyngdorf theatre system by Steinway, a bar, wine cellar and tasting room, alongside a detached studio and boat store. Lutron lighting, integrated speakers and solar panels further enhance the home’s comfort, efficiency and contemporary appeal.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark home where architectural excellence, luxury lifestyle and one of South Devon’s most desirable marine settings come together in truly spectacular fashion. SELLERS INSIGHT “We came across this plot almost by chance. The house that was here at the time was not at all what we had been looking for — in fact, we very nearly didn’t view it. But as soon as we came up the driveway, we could see the vision. We knew there was an opportunity here to create something truly exceptional. The views were unlike anything we had seen before. They were completely captivating, and we knew straight away that if we let this go, we may never find another setting quite like it. That became the starting point for everything we went on to create. When we rebuilt the house, we had a very clear objective: to make the absolute most of the views. Every decision was centred around the outlook, the light and the way the house would connect with its surroundings. We wanted open-plan living, generous indoor and outdoor spaces, and a home that was substantial enough to entertain properly, but still felt comfortable and enjoyable every day. It really was the opportunity to create our dream home. The cinema room was something we had always wanted, and it has completely changed the way we experience film and television — we use it every day. The wine tasting room was also particularly important to us, especially given my line of work, and it has been wonderful to have a space designed specifically for that purpose. What we love is that the house fulfils every need we could ever have. It is incredibly private, beautifully light and has so many luxury finishes that make day-to-day life feel effortless. The Lutron lighting system, for example, means each room can be set to suit the mood, whether we are entertaining, relaxing, watching a film or enjoying dinner with friends. Although we wanted the house to feel luxurious, we were also very conscious of making it efficient and economical to run. With the solar panels and the EPC B rating, we feel we achieved that balance, creating a substantial home that also works practically. Our lives are now taking us to a different part of the world, otherwise we would never consider leaving. This has been our dream home in every sense — the privacy, the views, the light, the entertaining spaces and the lifestyle it offers are things we know would be almost impossible to recreate” STEP INSIDE From the moment you enter The Headlands, the architectural calibre of the home is immediately apparent. The entrance hall is quite spectacular, with floor-to-ceiling glazing, an impressive ceiling height and a striking staircase rising to the first floor, while a further staircase leads down to the lower ground level. Far more than simply a place of arrival, this is a room in its own right — dramatic, light-filled and designed to offer an immediate glimpse of the quality, scale and style that continues throughout the home. The crisp white décor, grey tiled flooring and feature slate wall create a sophisticated contrast, setting the tone for the contemporary interiors. As you move through into the sitting room, the proportions of the house become even more impressive. This is an exceptional principal reception space, with an expansive wall of glazing and a further wall of sliding doors framing panoramic views across the coastline. A feature double-sided fireplace creates both warmth and architectural interest, linking the sitting room effortlessly with the adjoining dining room. The dining area continues the feeling of openness and connection to the sea, with double-aspect bifold doors opening onto the sun terrace, which wraps around the principal living spaces on three sides. This clever design allows the interiors to flow naturally outwards, creating a wonderful sense of inside-outside living and making the most of the home’s elevated coastal setting. From here, the space opens into the kitchen — a beautifully designed, contemporary room fitted with premium NEFF appliances, sleek cabinetry and a striking central island. The island stands prominently at the heart of the room, framed by extensive storage and work surfaces, while breakfast bar seating provides a relaxed and informal place to gather. Further bifold doors open directly onto the expansive terrace and outdoor kitchen, complete with barbecue and pizza oven. With its stone walls, greenery and modern tiled flooring, this is a superb entertaining space, equally suited to relaxed family living or hosting on a grander scale. Throughout the main living spaces, garden, bedroom suites, cinema room and wine tasting room, a state-of-the-art Lutron lighting system provides a range of ambience settings, allowing each space to be tailored to the mood and occasion. Integrated ceiling speakers further enhance the home’s entertaining credentials, extending through the main reception areas, wine tasting room, first floor bedroom suites and terrace. Accessed from the kitchen, terrace and hallway is a fully functional bar — a stylish and practical addition to the entertaining space — with an adjoining cloakroom and server room housing the specialist equipment for the cinema room. The cinema itself has been designed to deliver the ultimate home viewing experience, with two rows of four reclining cinema chairs, a 144” specialist screen, JVC UHD projector and a comprehensive surround sound system via a Lyngdorf theatre system made by Steinway. It is an exceptional private cinema, perfectly in keeping with the luxury and technical sophistication found throughout this remarkable home. LOWER GROUND FLOOR The lower ground floor has been designed with the same attention to detail as the principal living spaces, providing a highly practical yet beautifully finished area of the home. Here, the more functional elements have been cleverly positioned away from the main entertaining spaces, allowing day-to-day household requirements to be managed discreetly without compromising the elegance and flow of the living accommodation above. A large and exceptionally useful laundry room provides excellent working space and storage, while also incorporating a cloakroom and a generous shower area. This is a thoughtful and practical addition, ideal for returning from the beach, boating, walking or simply managing family life with ease. The wine cellar is a particular highlight, having been specifically designed for the storage and presentation of fine wines. More than simply a practical cellar, this is a dedicated wine tasting space, created with a sense of occasion and entirely in keeping with the grandeur and lifestyle offering of the wider home. From here, the accommodation leads through to a boot room, currently arranged as a gym. With ample storage, the boiler and water cylinder discreetly housed within this area, and an external door providing independent access, this lower ground level offers notable flexibility. Subject to any necessary consents, there may be potential to utilise this area as self-contained accommodation, making it well suited to those considering annexe potential, guest use or a more independent arrangement for extended family. Also positioned on this level is a lobby giving access to the integral double garage, further enhancing the convenience and practicality of this impressive coastal residence. FIRST FLOOR The bedroom accommodation continues the home’s clear theme of luxury, scale and considered design. A light-filled landing, with delicate glass balustrades overlooking the impressive entrance hall below, creates a wonderful sense of openness and architectural drama, while leading through to four of the six bedrooms. There are two principal bedroom suites on this level, both beautifully appointed and designed to take full advantage of the home’s elevated position. Each suite includes a dressing room leading through to an elegant en suite bathroom, creating a private and refined retreat. Both also enjoy direct access onto the balcony, allowing the views across the grounds, surrounding landscape and out towards the sea to be appreciated from the moment the day begins. A further bedroom on this floor benefits from its own en suite shower room and is currently arranged as an office, making it a particularly impressive workspace with the added advantage of a private balcony. Another bedroom enjoys views over the garden and has access to the adjacent bathroom, which is a real signature suite in its own right — beautifully finished and entirely in keeping with the quality found throughout the bathrooms on this level. From the landing, a door opens directly to the upper garden patio, where a hot tub is set within decking and complemented by an outdoor shower. It is a cleverly positioned lifestyle space, offering a private place to relax while continuing the home’s strong connection between inside and outside living. A final staircase rises to the upper level, where there are two further double bedrooms, both with their own en suite facilities. This arrangement provides excellent flexibility for family, guests or extended stays, ensuring each bedroom feels private, comfortable and beautifully considered. STEP OUTSIDE The sense of privacy and arrival at The Headlands is immediate. Electric gates open to reveal a sweeping driveway which ascends towards the house, the property itself discreetly hidden from the road. With each turn, there is a growing sense of intrigue and anticipation, passing the boat store and detached studio before arriving at the main residence, where ample parking awaits. Every element of the outside space has been carefully considered to complement the architecture, maximise the elevated coastal outlook and create a series of distinct areas for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the peaceful setting. Lighting has been thoughtfully positioned throughout the grounds, providing both practicality and atmosphere as day turns to evening. The principal ground floor terrace wraps from the entrance door around the eastern and southern aspects of the house, offering a collection of seating and entertaining areas designed to follow the sun as it moves around the building. Discreet glass balustrades enclose the terrace, preserving safety and definition without interrupting the panoramic views across the surrounding landscape and out towards the sea. On the southern side, the terrace flows onto a further patio. This creates an effortless connection between the main house and the wider amenities of the property, reinforcing the sense that each space has been designed with purpose and ease of use in mind. Steps also rise to the first floor patio, where a sunken hot tub is set within decking, complemented by an area of lawn. This space links beautifully back to the first floor balcony serving the principal bedroom suites, creating a private and luxurious retreat from which to enjoy the surroundings. The established landscaped grounds frame the plot with a range of attractive, low-maintenance shrubs, softening the contemporary lines of the house while allowing the views and architecture to remain the focus. Further steps rise to the highest point of the garden, where a dedicated seating area takes full advantage of the sunny aspect and spectacular elevated views — a fitting vantage point from which to appreciate the scale, privacy and beauty of this exceptional coastal home.

INTRODUCTION Occupying a private position on Higher Woodfield Road in the heart of Torquay, Mintons is an exceptional Grade II listed Victorian residence, dating back to circa 1834 and steeped in rich heritage. Once owned by the renowned industrialist Herbert Minton—whose pioneering work in ceramics and porcelain influenced design across the world and was ordered by Queen Victoria—the home carries a legacy that is both rare and remarkable. This heritage is beautifully expressed throughout, most notably in the exquisite encaustic tiles synonymous with Minton’s craftsmanship, showcasing intricate geometric patterns that echo a period of true artistic innovation. Architecturally striking, the property evokes an elegant Italianate charm, with grand, light-filled rooms flowing effortlessly onto private, landscaped gardens inspired by the Mediterranean. The atmosphere is one of timeless sophistication—where classical proportions, high ceilings, decorative cornicing, and original sash windows with shutters combine to create a home of enduring character. Despite its history, Mintons has been thoughtfully maintained and sensitively enhanced, offering a seamless balance between period grandeur and modern-day living. The accommodation is both substantial and versatile. The principal residence provides five generous bedrooms and six impressive reception rooms, including a conservatory and an orangery—ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. Complementing the main house are two self-contained apartments—a one-bedroom flat and a two-bedroom coach house—perfect for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or income potential. The accommodation could be used as one residence as all connects, but could also be used as three self contained properties. Further benefits include a swimming pool, two garages, extensive storage, and a highly usable cellar incorporating a dedicated wine cellar—completing a residence that is as functional as it is beautiful. SELLERS INSIGHT “Mintons captivated us at first sight.  A welcoming, bright, and historic house with an attractive conservatory and orangery plus a unique pavilion. It’s more reminiscent of a villa on Lake Como but fits perfectly on the English Riviera. The location is ideal being just a short walk from the harbour (perfect for boat owners), the beautiful harbour / waterfront promenade and of course the restaurants and shops in the centre. It’s also just a few minutes walk to Meadfoot Beach with its café overlooking the bay and a little further on to Ilsham Green, where dogs and kids can run around and play. We were very impressed by the secure driveway with ample parking, the beautiful house and the privacy offered by the large garden with its swimming pool. Thanks to the mild climate we were finally able to create a garden filled with exotic and Mediterranean plants. Moving from a very modern house to this historic period house was exciting; to design the various rooms with high ceilings and ornate details - according to our vision while still preserving their historic character. The modern, spacious and bright kitchen is the perfect gathering place to treat family and friends with delicacies. Enjoying breakfast in the conservatory and watching the sun set in the orangery while having a drink is one of the highlights of the day. In summer we also thoroughly enjoy the garden, sitting at different places and look at diverse perspectives. The outdoor area with its various terraces is perfect for entertaining and pool amenities. Despite the central location nights are surprisingly quiet - often all you hear are the hoots of the owl. It’s such a privilege to live at Mintons and we are aware that we’ll possibly never find an impressive home like this again”  STEP INSIDE Set privately within its own established grounds in Torquay, Mintons reveals its scale and elegance from the very first moment of arrival.

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. Mature Mediterranean planting, including a variety of palm trees, thrives in Torquay’s unique microclimate, creating a lush, exotic atmosphere that feels a world away from everyday life. A beautiful swimming pool completes this private paradise, and with Meadfoot Beach just a short walk away, Belton House truly offers the best of coastal living. 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 INSIDE Hidden 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.

A spacious landing leads to a Juliet balcony that captures the sea views, while each bedroom benefits from its own en-suite.

A large summerhouse with electricity provides excellent flexibility—perfect as a home office, studio or retreat—completing a garden that is as versatile as it is inviting, and perfectly suited to both quiet enjoyment and entertaining on a larger scale. SELLERS INSIGHT “When we bought the house over 20 years ago, we never looked back. We knew we wanted to be close to the sea and within an established, executive road, and whilst we viewed other properties with perhaps more immediate kerb appeal, we instantly fell in love with the space and feel of Villa Nova. It’s a home that is incredibly bright, easy to maintain, and has adapted effortlessly to every stage of our lives. The lift has provided us with ease of living and the property has been fully accessible even with a wheelchair. When the family come to stay, there is more than enough room for everyone, yet it feels equally comfortable for just two—particularly in more recent years, where being able to live predominantly on one level has been such a benefit. One of the things we have loved most is the connection to the outside. Having access to the garden and terraces from so many rooms is a real joy—it allows you to truly live both inside and out, whether that’s enjoying a quiet morning coffee or hosting family and friends in the warmer months. The location has been equally special. From coastal walks and nearby shops to the ease of accessing further afield, it offers the perfect balance of lifestyle and convenience. We are moving to be closer to family, but we leave with a house full of memories and feel very fortunate to have called this our home for so many years.”
