A beautiful home of individual design, spectacularly set in private wooded grounds adjoining open moorland and enjoying fine views over Dartmoor.
Te-Whare is a wonderful home set within 1.8 acres of beautiful grounds and mature woodlands. The attractive gated entrance leads to an extensive gravel parking area and garaging for three vehicles. Grand granite steps and double doors lead to the imaginatively designed interior which includes a large open plan split level principal living area with imposing granite fireplace. The high ceiling is enhanced by the exposed timbers dominated by the reclaimed ship's keelson. Steps lead down to the sun room with access to the garden.The dining room, which could be described as baronial, has exposed granite, timbered apex roof and imposing fireplace with wood burning stove.The study, with its harlequin tiled floor, mullion windows and soothing views over the grounds, provides an ideal home-working environment aided by good wi-fi.For catering, the kitchen/breakfast room, again with mullion windows and stunning views, is fully fitted with freezer, dishwasher and Range cooker.The utility room has ample storage and laundry facilities as well as the newly installed zoned gas boiler and heat store water system.Both the principal suite and second bedroom are impressive with their double doors opening onto the balcony with far-reaching views over themoors. This, with the two further bedrooms and family bathroom offer flexible accommodation on the first floor.Outside, the maintained grounds with mature trees and shrubs are designed for easy maintenance. As well as the fully powered and insulated workshop there are further sheds for implements and log storage.
