Crabadon Manor is Grade II listed house steeped in history. Believed to date as far back as the 13th century, the house was formerly a summer retreat for the monks of Buckfast Abbey.
The house is of a long single depth rectangular layout with a central cross passage with two storey porch at the front. First impressions are fantastic, with an impressive front door leading to the entrance hall with its heavy slate floor and oak panelling, setting the tone for the rest of the house. From the entrance hall the principal reception rooms are accessed. On one side is the library through which is accessed the drawing room, which is of elegant proportions and features an inglenook fireplace with wood burner.
There is a lift accessed from the library for step-free access to the first floor. On the other side of the entrance hall is the charming dining room, ideal for entertaining and also featuring an impressive fireplace with wood burner.
Beyond this is the farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room with AGA and space for informal family dining room. From the kitchen, the practical elements of the house are accessed including a utility/laundry room and a conservatory leading to the garden.
The generous proportions continue to the first floor where there are six well appointed bedrooms. The principal bedroom, which is accessible via the lift, has an en suite shower room. The adjoining bedroom could be used as a dressing room for the principal bedroom if required. There are four further bedrooms.
Also within Lot 1 is Lily Pond Cottage, a delightful detached two bedroom cottage providing separate accommodation ideal for holiday letting. The cottage overlooks the attractive gardens and lily pond.
