LOCATION

Lindridge Park is a stunningly beautiful country house estate steeped in history, dating back to 1044. The grounds of the estate are set amongst beautiful rolling Devon countryside, just below Humber Down and the Little Haldon hills. Conveying a real sense of past grandeur, Lindridge is one of Devon's oldest manors and was converted in the early 1990's into high-end individual houses. The residents of the 21 properties at Lindridge Park benefit from access to and use of the 23 acres of private estate gardens and grounds, comprising a formal Italianate rose garden with pond and temple, a water garden with waterfall, spacious open areas, wooded walks and stone footpaths shaded by a wisteria adorned pergola and lush meadows etc. There is a heated swimming pool, a croquet lawn and tennis court for more active pursuits. The estate is surrounded by century old trees and enjoys far-reaching rural views. The setting offers great convenience with the cathedral city and county town of Exeter being set around 13-miles away, easily accessible via the A380, with its red brick university, private and public schools and the Princesshay shopping centre. For coastal pursuits and the beach, Teignmouth lies around 5-miles away and the local village of Bishopsteignton with its public houses, vineyard and village amenities is around 2 miles away. There is an 18-hole golf course around 2-miles away on the Little Haldon hills and Humber Barn offers a good local facility.
