Pittmoor represents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautiful country home on the edge of Ashburton - a place to enjoy space, nature and a slower pace of life. 

ACCOMMODATION From the private parking at the front of the house, the front door opens into the entrance hall that sits at the heart of the home, linking the main ground-floor accommodation and creating a well-balanced layout suited to both everyday family living and entertaining. The main sitting room is a wonderfully atmospheric space, centred around a substantial stone fireplace with wood-burning stove. Exposed ceiling beams, deep-set windows and garden views create a warm and inviting room - ideal for relaxed evenings or family gatherings.

Across the hallway sits the dining room, a beautifully proportioned space with another feature fireplace and ample room for a large table. This is a room that lends itself perfectly to entertaining, celebrations and long, relaxed meals with friends and family.

The kitchen is both practical and full of character, fitted with a range of traditional-style units, work surfaces and integrated appliances. With views over the garden and direct access to the dining room, it works as the natural hub of the home while offering scope for future enhancement if desired.

One of Pittmoor's most appealing spaces is the garden room, positioned to make the most of the outlook across the gardens and surrounding countryside. Flooded with natural light and enjoying direct access to the outside, this room is ideal as a second sitting room, reading room or peaceful retreat throughout the seasons. Also, laid out to this end of the house is a useful studio room, offering excellent flexibility as a home office, creative space or hobbies room, allowing day-to-day living and working to be comfortably separated.

The first floor is arranged around four well-proportioned bedrooms, providing comfortable and practical family accommodation. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. Each room enjoys its own outlook over the gardens or surrounding countryside, creating calm and restful spaces well suited to family life.

 

OUTSIDE The gardens and grounds at Pittmoor extend to approximately three-quarters of an acre and are a defining feature of the property. Beautifully established and thoughtfully arranged, they offer a combination of sweeping lawns, mature planting and private seating areas, all centred around a gentle stream that meanders through the heart of the garden, crossed by a charming footbridge.

The natural layout creates a peaceful and private setting, ideal for family life, outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the surroundings. The outdoor swimming pool is discreetly positioned within the grounds, providing a wonderful lifestyle feature for the warmer months.

Together, the gardens and pool offer a rare sense of space and tranquillity, enhancing the feeling of this being a true country home on the edge of Ashburton.
