Edge of Dartmouth

Situated around 1 mile from the estuary town of Dartmouth Broome Court is a stunning barn conversion offering very large, flexible accommodation and enjoying fantastic country views. The barns were originally built in the 1800’s for the neighbouring estate and over the years converted into this stunning home. More recently, the house has undergone a major renovation program inside and out to create a unique spacious home, promoting the charm and character while integrating modern touches. Internally, the property has traditional features including exposed walls and timbers as well as modern, contemporary appearances. This is shown in the architect designed glass passageway which links the many reception rooms.

One of the focal points of the house is the stunning central courtyard which the property wraps around. Completed in 2021, the courtyard offers a sunny, tranquil, Mediterranean style rose garden with a central pond and raised beds.

Broome Court offers very flexible accommodation with 5 reception rooms, a 27ft Kitchen/breakfast room, 5 bedrooms, 3 en-suites, a self-contained guest annexe with an en-suite bedroom and a living room. There is also a selection of ancillary rooms and a conservatory. To the outside, grounds of just under 1 acre of formal and informal gardens with a selection of fruit trees including peach and apricot, a small wood copse, level gardens and extensive patio enjoying wonderful sunsets. To the front is ample parking and a range of timber outbuildings. To meet today’s needs, Broome Court has solar panels (fitted to a Tesla storage facility, fed back to the grid), a biomass wood pellet boiler system with a private water supply and shared drainage system.
