Highwood Grange, Newton Abbot, TQ12 1QS

A substantial and characterful Victorian villa offering an impressive 1,795 sq ft of accommodation arranged over four levels, combining generous proportions with excellent versatility and far-reaching views. The property provides four bedrooms together with flexible ground-floor accommodation offering the potential to create a self-contained annexe for a family member. There is also a useful void area which, subject to the necessary planning permission and building regulation consents, could potentially be converted to provide a home office, gym or further ancillary accommodation.

Dating back to the mid-1800s, this attractive Victorian home successfully combines period character with a number of thoughtful improvements undertaken by the current owner, creating a spacious and flexible property ideally suited to modern family living.

Occupying an elevated position within the highly sought-after Wolborough Hill area, the property enjoys an excellent setting on the edge of town while remaining conveniently positioned for Newton Abbot town centre and its range of amenities. Countryside walks can be enjoyed virtually from the doorstep, providing an appealing combination of accessibility, privacy and outdoor lifestyle.

Internally, the property offers an impressive amount of accommodation, with high ceilings, generous room proportions and plenty of natural light enhancing the feeling of space throughout.

The main living accommodation includes a welcoming entrance reception hallway, a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room and a spacious lounge featuring an improved living flame gas fire. The lounge also provides direct access to the rear garden, creating an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining.

A particular feature of the property is the ground floor accommodation, which offers considerable flexibility and the potential to create a self-contained annexe, ideal for an elderly relative, adult child, guests or multi-generational living. The accommodation at this level already provides a number of useful rooms and could be adapted to suit a variety of requirements.

In addition, there is a void area offering further potential. Subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission, building regulations and any other relevant consents, this space could potentially be converted to create a home office, gym, hobby room or other useful ancillary accommodation.

Across the upper floors are three further bedrooms, including an impressive principal bedroom with en-suite bathroom, together with a separate family bathroom. The flexible arrangement makes the property particularly well suited to larger families, those working from home or buyers looking for adaptable accommodation over several levels.

Externally, the property benefits from a level rear garden, two allocated parking spaces to the rear and excellent views afforded by its elevated position.

Further benefits include gas central heating with an improved boiler, double glazing and recently replaced roofing to the hallway area.
