Description
A handsome and versatile country home set in beautifully landscaped gardens of over an acre, with traditional stone outbuildings and far-reaching views.
Tucked away in a peaceful setting on the edge of the sought-after village of Chagford, Adley House is a superb family home combining period charm with modern comfort. Surrounded by rolling countryside and mature gardens, the property offers excellent living space, wonderful natural light, and a flexible layout ideal for family life and entertaining.
The welcoming entrance hall leads into a light-filled, triple-aspect drawing room with views over the garden and surrounding landscape. A second sitting room enjoys direct views across the rear gardens, while a dedicated study connects seamlessly with the spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room. This charming heart-of-the-home features a central island, bespoke cabinetry, and direct access to the terrace and gardens beyond.
The ground floor also includes a generous utility room, guest cloakroom. Plantroom with a wood pellet boiler system, pellet store and a workshop
On the first floor, the accommodation comprises five bedrooms, including a well-proportioned principal suite with en suite shower room. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while a sixth room offers flexibility as a dressing room, nursery, or additional bedroom.
The gardens at Adley House are a particular highlight, beautifully landscaped and designed to offer colour, structure and privacy throughout the year. Sweeping lawns are framed by established borders, mature shrubs, and an array of specimen and fruit trees. At the far end of the garden, a stone-walled seating area provides the perfect place to enjoy coffee, lunch or an evening drink.
To one side of the house is a productive kitchen garden with raised beds, a greenhouse, and a small orchard leading down to a wildlife area with a pond
