A most impressive, detached country house with 16th Century Origins set comfortably within 5 acres of land and beautiful mature grounds enjoying magnificent far-reaching views across the well-established gardens to a south facing valley of rolling farmland. The property lies on the outskirts of the desirable village of Harberton and less than 3 miles from Totnes.
The accommodation is flexible with 5/6 bedrooms and no less than three bathrooms arranged on the first floor with a potential one-bedroom annexe which is currently used as a home office and large utility area. The kitchen/breakfast room forms the hub of the house with an oil-fired AGA and plenty of room for family dining. The dining room is substantial and has a serving area to one side which could be used as a library with a comfortable drawing room and study located at the far end of the property.
Although Friendsleigh, like so many Devon properties, had humble 16th century origins the property was extended with a handsome regency extension and in later years and a glazed extension has been added to form a charming garden/everyday room.
Outside the gardens and extensive grounds are a particular feature of the property offering a high degree of privacy and elevated views across rolling countryside. There is a range of outbuildings including a detached double garage and an outdoor kitchen area, perfect for alfresco entertaining.
Services: Mains electric and water, drainage via septic tank, oil fired central heating.
Harberton village is within a short distance of Totnes market town, the commercial centre for the South Hams. This part of Devon is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, with Dartmoor National Park to the north and stunning beaches and coastline ten miles to the south. Harberton village has a strong community, which centres around the parish hall, St Andrew's Church and the well-regarded Church House Inn. The nearby medieval market town of Totnes has a mainline railway station giving direct connections to London Paddington. There is easy access to the A38 Devon Expressway, linking Plymouth and Exeter where it joins the M5. Schooling in the area is excellent with a number of well-regarded primary and secondary schools. Totnes boasts a market as well as a good selection of shops, supermarkets, restaurants and inns.
