Chagford, Newton Abbot, Devon

Westhill House is a beautifully presented detached family home, offering over 2,300 sq ft of light-filled, contemporary accommodation. Set within enchanting gardens of approximately 1.1 acres, the property lies in a peaceful and private position on the edge of the highly sought-after town of Chagford, with exceptional views across Dartmoor National Park.

Westhill House has been newly refurbished by the current owner to create a stylish and contemporary home with modern fixtures and fittings throughout. Improvements include complete redecoration, a newly renovated kitchen/dining room, underfloor heating throughout and upgraded bathrooms.

At the entrance a porch provides access to the inner hallway, which has wooden flooring and a turned staircase with a glass and wooden balustrade leading to the galleried first-floor landing. The main reception room is the sitting room, which has a fireplace with a log burner and a double aspect, flooding the space with natural light and affording wonderful views across the surrounding countryside. To the rear, a comfortable family room provides a relaxed living space, enhanced by a Scandinavian-style log burner and sliding glass doors that open onto the terrace. The kitchen/dining room offers additional versatile living space and connects seamlessly to the family room in a semi open-plan layout. The kitchen is fitted with sleek contemporary units and integrated appliances, alongside a dining area with ample space for a family table. The ground floor also benefits from a cloakroom and a generous utility room, providing further space for storage and appliances.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to four well-appointed double bedrooms. These include the principal bedroom, which has a dual aspect allowing for plenty of natural light and an en suite bathroom with a bath and a walk-in shower. The three further bedrooms all include built-in wardrobes, with one also benefitting from an en suite shower room. This floor is also serviced by a spacious family bathroom with a bath and separate shower unit.

The house is situated at the end of a long private driveway, which is accessed via a five-bar wooden gate and leads to a parking area at the side of the house, and to the detached garaging block. The delightful country gardens to the front and rear of the house feature rolling lawns and meadows with various spring flowers, shrubs, hedgerows and mature specimen trees, as well as beautiful and far-reaching views across the surrounding Dartmoor countryside. The gardens also include a vegetable patch with raised beds, storage sheds, a greenhouse and at the back of the house, a large south-facing patio area for al fresco dining.
