Description
Whitemoor Cross is a substantial detached family residence occupying a quiet, elevated position on the edge of Holbeton. The property enjoys panoramic, far-reaching views across rolling South Devon countryside toward Dartmoor and the nearby estuary, providing a tranquil setting while remaining conveniently close to the village centre, local amenities, and the region’s golden sandy beaches.
Perfectly suited for those who enjoy the outdoors, the home offers easy access to scenic walks through the historic Flete Estate, along the Coastguards’ Path and down to Mothecombe Beach. After a refreshing walk, residents can enjoy indoor or outdoor dining at The School House restaurant at Mothecombe, creating a welcoming blend of coastal recreation and lifestyle convenience.
The surrounding landscape also features in cinematic history: parts of the acclaimed film Sense and Sensibility (1995), starring Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet, were filmed on the nearby Flete Estate and in Holbeton village, adding a genteel cultural connection to this beautiful corner of Devon.

The house provides well-proportioned accommodation across two floors, blending practical family living with generous reception spaces. The heart of the home is a light-filled farmhouse-style kitchen and dining area, ideal for everyday life and entertaining. Multiple reception rooms provide flexible living options, while traditional features such as fireplaces and high ceilings are seamlessly complemented by contemporary finishes.
The property comprises five bedrooms, including two en suite principal suites, alongside a family bathroom. Each room is naturally bright and takes advantage of the property’s scenic outlooks, making it suitable for family living, guests, or flexible home-working arrangements.
