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. Bespoke oak carpentry includes built-in shelving, cupboards and radiator covers. The sitting room flows into the dual aspect library, which houses two large bookcases, fitted cupboards, and a traditional stone fireplace with a clome oven. 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. AV equipment and seating to be included at the guide price. Completing the ground floor are a walk in pantry with cooling system, a utility room, two separate WC’s a workshop and a lobby with extensive storage. Two staircases lead to the first floor. 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.

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.

A utility room adds useful support space, and there is further versatility on the ground floor for those seeking the option of an additional bedroom. On the first floor, four spacious bedrooms continue the feeling of comfort and proportion, with one enjoying particularly attractive sea views. A family bathroom serves the bedroom accommodation, while the overall arrangement allows the house to suit both permanent living and extended family occupation with ease. The outside space is a major part of the appeal, with the farmhouse enjoying a south facing front garden and a wonderfully open relationship with its coastal surroundings. Access is from the western side via a shared approach with The Hayloft, where there is generous parking for both properties together with a garage and a utility room to the rear. To the rear, a large, enclosed lawn has been carefully maintained and provides an excellent setting for outdoor dining, family use or simply enjoying the outlook. Two separate sea facing patio areas create distinct places to sit and take in the views, one reached from the kitchen and breakfast room and the other from the living room. Together they give the house a strong sense of privacy, shelter and connection to the landscape, with the ocean and coastline providing an ever-changing backdrop. Services: Mains Electricity and Water. Oil Fired Central Heating. Private Drainage. THE HAYLOFT The Hayloft is a beautifully finished detached barn conversion, recently converted to a high standard and designed to make the most of its exceptional position. The accommodation is arranged in reverse style, allowing the principal living space to fully enjoy the sea and countryside views, and giving the home a bright, open and uplifting feel throughout. The first floor is especially impressive, with a vaulted open plan living room extending the full length of the building. This is a space with real impact, combining scale, character and comfort in a way that suits both everyday living and entertaining. A log burner with an attractive brick surround provides a natural division between the kitchen and dining area and the sitting area, helping each part of the room feel connected yet distinct. The overall effect is one of warmth, openness and effortless flow. On the ground floor, the sleeping accommodation is well arranged and generous in scale, comprising two double bedrooms, one with its own ensuite, together with a twin bedroom and a family bathroom. The layout gives the property a practical versatility for family occupation, guests or holiday use, while the overall standard of presentation ensures the house feels ready to enjoy from the outset. The Hayloft is approached via a shared drive with parking for several vehicles, giving both convenience and a strong sense of arrival. To the rear, a sunny patio provides an ideal space for outdoor dining or relaxed afternoons in the sun, with the setting making full use of the natural shelter and orientation. Beyond this, a private enclosed lawned garden extends the lifestyle appeal of the property and frames the far-reaching outlook beautifully. From here, the views take in the ocean, the rugged Cornish coastline and the surrounding countryside in a way that feels both open and peaceful. The outside space complements the internal layout particularly well, creating a home that is as enjoyable outdoors as it is within. Services: Mains Electricity and Water. Oil Fired Central Heating. Private drainage. THE BOATSHED The Boatshed has been sympathetically converted from a former barn to create a self-contained studio of real character and quality. Set apart from the main farmhouse, it enjoys a greater sense of independence while still benefiting from the wider appeal of the setting. The interior is arranged as an open plan living space, with the kitchen, sitting area and bedroom space brought together in a way that feels calm, practical and surprisingly spacious. Exposed beams add warmth and texture, while floor to ceiling glazing draws in the landscape and gives the studio a strong visual connection to the sea and countryside beyond. The overall finish is of a high standard, with the design allowing the setting to take centre stage. It is a space that feels considered and atmospheric, equally suited to peaceful personal use or welcoming guests in comfort. The Boatshed is approached via its own private driveway, giving it a distinct sense of separation from the other buildings. Separate parking adds to this independence, while a footpath leads to the property itself. To the rear, an elevated terrace makes the most of the dramatic outlook, with wide reaching views across the Cornish countryside to the sea. A coastal inspired patio garden provides an attractive and manageable outdoor space that sits naturally within its surroundings. The result is a setting that feels private, scenic and deeply connected to the landscape. Services: Mains Electricity and Water. Electric Central Heating. Private Drainage. Seller's Insight Standing at the kitchen sink watching a peregrine falcon circling looking for prey you feel as though you are a million miles away from the real world yet civilisation is right next door. We love the fact that there’s a different scene from every window and when our neighbour brings his sheep to the fields you also get free entertainment. Boscastle feels like a link to the past with its centuries’ old customs house (now the Cobweb Inn) and Elizabethan harbour wall. In summer watching dogs play in the river and children diving and swimming in the harbour it feels like an excerpt from a Rosamund Pilcher book. In the winter it’s more reminiscent of Daphne Du Maurier. Boscastle is also one of the friendliest villages in the country and people are happy to help you if they possibly can; one word of advice – the landlord of the Cobweb Inn knows anyone and everyone and is the first port of call for advice.

Coming up the driveway with silver birch lining either side really is only a small taster of what lies beyond. The handsome farmhouse sits back on the left above the drive, before it turns off to the ample parking for the cottages. Farmhouse Approached across an enclosed paved courtyard and coming in through the front door, one is immediately struck by the contemporary feel that has been created inside. A fine reception hall guides you in, with Walnut doors featuring aluminium horizontal inserts, a Porcelain tiled floor that extends through other parts of the ground floor complimented by hard wood stairs, having glass side panels and risers, leading to the first floor. The sitting room with its log burner is a delightful south westerly facing room having a log burner sat upon a stone hearth with fireplace surround. Continuing down the hall is a double aspect office. The splendid south westerly facing drawing room has a fireplace with inset Clearview stove and adjacent luminated display cupboards with glass fronts as a focal point. Having two large sash windows, this is a wonderful room to be in at any time of day but especially mid afternoon through to the early evening as the sun pours in. They say the heart of a home is the kitchen and this is the theme expressed by our clients by creating a wonderful ‘T’ shaped entertaining environment, combining a double aspect 30’ kitchen/family opening into an 18’ dining room, allowing refectory table dining for 10. The kitchen offers an extensive range of burgundy wall, floor and drawer units with concealed lighting, all balanced with granite work surfacing and a substantial island unit. The kitchen design is based around someone who enjoys cooking offering an induction hob with extractor and light above, oven, grill, microwave, tall fridge and separate tall freezer, dishwasher and waste disposal/recycling drawer. Two pairs of bifold doors open up into the garden thus creating even more entertaining space during the warmer months. Leading off is a generous size utility room with ample storage and appliance space, with doors leading off into a small study on one side which overlooks the garden and a useful boot room with external door to the courtyard outside. Rounding off the accommodation on the ground floor is a stylish cloakroom. Upstairs is a fusion of contemporary with traditional farmhouse panel doors to the rooms with brass knobs whilst the decoration is finished in a modern style. The whole right side of the first floor is taken up with a substantial main bedroom, dressing room and large en suite having a wooden floor, double ended spa bath, separate shower, wash hand basin and WC with hidden cistern.

There are several areas all zoned differently, with lawns for playing on, to vegetable patches, to Japanese water garden with bridge, to a Mediterranean hot garden. Outside the kitchen across from the terrace is a long Rill water feature taking the eye into the distance. Strategically placed is a selection of steel and wooden structures giving further form and shape to the environment. Planting includes, box, banana, ferns, acer, bamboo, black bamboo, button lavender, lavender, lily Crocosmia and Photinia to mention but a few.

The paddocks all interlink on this side of the grounds with the main paddock being on the South Westerly side adjacent to some of the cottages and cottages parking area.

The long private driveway immediately creates a wonderful sense of seclusion before you arrive at the farmhouse with its generous parking and turning areas. The combination of character lifestyle that is on offer within the main house and the former Shippen, along with the land and various outbuildings, makes Badslake particularly appealing to those looking for a lifestyle property with equestrian facilities, and multigenerational living or simply plenty of space, in a peaceful rural environment. The Farmhouse The farmhouse itself is an attractive and substantial period home we understand to be of cobb and stone construction under a slate roof, providing approximately 3,350 sq. Ft of accommodation over two floors. Character features can be found throughout, including exposed timbers, stonework, Marland brick floors and impressive fireplaces, while the generous proportions provide excellent space to enjoy family life without necessarily having to be on top of each other. On the ground floor, the accommodation is centred around a spacious double aspect kitchen/breakfast room, complete with Aga, that creates a natural heart to the home and sets the tone for the rest of the accommodation that is on offer elsewhere in the house. The sitting room and family room sit alongside one another, both having fireplaces with log burners to cosy up to in the colder months of the year. Off the family room and overlooking the approach to the farm is a fine 23’ garden room that our clients use as a dining room that should comfortably sit 12 or more as required and it must be a lovely environment for some lively evening entertaining, or lunch time get togethers as it is bathed in sunlight through the mid morning to mid afternoon. On the other side of the kitchen an inner hall leads to the family room, again with log burner and leading off is another garden room, with log burner, which our client uses as an office overlooking the garden on the eastern side which also means they are away from the daily household activities going on around. At the rear of the farmhouse is a study/gym, featuring an attractive local Marland brick floor, as well as a cloakroom and a generous sized utility room, providing ample appliance space and direct access out to the garden. On the first floor there are five double bedrooms providing excellent accommodation for a larger family or visiting guests. There are also two big bathrooms, together with useful landing and storage areas. The Annexe Away from the main farmhouse, the former Shippen has been thoughtfully converted to provide characterful and versatile additional accommodation. Ideal for extended family, dependent relatives or visiting guests, it also offers excellent potential as a separate work from home space. The ground floor comprises a generous sitting room with log burner, a kitchen/breakfast room with a range of units and appliance space, a double bedroom, a contemporary styled wet room and at the front a sun trap conservatory/garden room looking back towards the farmhouse and up to the fields beyond. A staircase rises to a substantial former attic that is being used as an occasional sleeping area and provides a highly useful and adaptable additional space. Outbuildings, Stables & Barns A traditional cobb barn stands opposite the farmhouse and although it has lapsed for conversion, provides a terrific storage/workshop with storeroom on one side and stables attached at the rear. The other buildings include an impressive 44’ tractor barn providing substantial storage for machinery and vehicles, an animal pen, games room and large wood store with plenty of space for splitting logs. There is extensive parking and turning space around the buildings, while the private driveway provides access through the grounds to the main property. Paddocks There are three paddocks, two together culminating near the small lake. The third is on the inner curve of the drive linked to the stables via a ‘race’ providing ideal turn out for horse and ponies. Gardens & Grounds Wandering through these is like being in your own park with a swathe of lawn dotted with young trees leading down to the small lake which has its own island in the middle. There are productive orchards with fruit trees including pears and apples, both eaters and cookers. Adjoining the rear of the house is a large lawn and at the front is a sun trap terrace ideal for a quiet contemplation and listening to the sounds of nature all around. The Shippen has its own garden having lawn at the front and a terrace at the back which is an ideal for some al fresco entertaining.
