There are basins in three of the bedrooms and the main bedroom offers two dressing rooms and an en suite bathroom with bath and shower.

The driveway with cattle grid, offers parking for numerous vehicles and access to the large double garage, which also houses a workstore with workbench. The gardens are a delight, being largely laid to lawn, with well-established shrubs and beds, and enclosed with mature hedging. There is a wraparound terrace, front garden with palm trees, and a walled garden area offering potential for a large kitchen garden with greenhouse.
Ashlade is situated on the edge of Torquay, near the village of Daccombe and about 3 miles from Newton Abbot. The views from the house and gardens are outstanding, with the outlook stretching for miles across open countryside. Despite the outstanding rural backdrop, Ashlade is less than a mile from the parade of shops on Barton Hill Road, which includes a Tesco Express, a Co-Op, a baker, a florist, and a pharmacy.
Both Torquay and Newton Abbot offer an excellent range of amenities including superstores, hospitals, restaurants, boutique shops and galleries, and a good range of secondary schools including Torquay Boys' Grammar and Torquay Girls' Grammar Schools.
Torquay town centre and marina are about 3 miles distant, whilst the mainline rail station at Newton Abbot is about 3.5 miles and offers a regular high-speed service to London Paddington in about 2.5 hours. Ashlade is well situated between the glorious rural idyll that is Dartmoor and the sandy beaches of South Devon, ensuring you will never be short of things to do or places to visit. The cathedral city of Exeter, which is about 18 miles away, is a hub of cultural excellence and home to one of the top UK universities. The A380 offers access to the M5 and is about 3 miles distant.
