A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Victorian Gothic History, One-Bedroom Grade II Listed Flat in Devon House, Bovey Tracey With a Share of the Freehold

Step into the grandeur of Devon House, an iconic Grade II listed building dating back to 1865, celebrated for its High Victorian Gothic architecture, intricate carved stonework, and distinctive mullioned windows. Originally built as the Devon House of Mercy, this remarkable property has been lovingly converted into a select number of private apartments, offering a unique blend of historic charm and modern comfort.

Exclusively for discerning residents aged 30+, this home is perfect for those seeking character, peace, and a strong sense of place. Please note: pets and holiday letting are not permitted, preserving the quiet elegance of the building.

From the ground-floor entrance, your own private doorway opens into a welcoming foyer with ample storage cupboards, ideal for coats, shoes, and everyday essentials. An elegant staircase leads you up to the main living space, and even here, the sense of scale and history is striking: soaring ceilings, deep skirting boards, and original period detailing frame your first impression.

The landing is unusually generous, setting the tone for the airy proportions throughout. The large double bedroom boasts built-in wardrobes and a stunning mullioned window that bathes the room in natural light, all under the gaze of an impressively high ceiling.

The kitchen is both practical and stylish, thoughtfully designed with ample storage, sleek dark blue cabinetry with brass handles, and a genuine Victorian colour wall finish that feels both modern and bold, complementing the historic setting beautifully.

The lounge/diner is a statement space, perfect for relaxing or entertaining, with original features reminding you that you’re living in a building of true historic significance. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the interior, offering a harmonious balance between classic and contemporary.

Residents benefit from allocated parking and access to beautifully maintained communal gardens, set within nearly two acres of landscaped grounds. Mature trees, sweeping lawns, and views toward Dartmoor create a peaceful environment rarely found in such a convenient location.

The building itself enjoys the benefits of communal heating, comprehensive building insurance, and a proactive management arrangement, service charges typically cover all these aspects, keeping maintenance simple and predictable.
