6 bed property for sale

Woodland Road, Woodlands, Ivybridge PL21

Attached manor house with separate annexe - A must see!
With a fantastically rich history rooted in the family seat of Sir Walter de Wodeland, a servant and confidant of The Black Prince, Woodland Manor is a beautiful example of a Grade II Listed attached, period property forming the remaining wing of the original larger house.

Description

With parts of the manor believed to date back to the 16th century, this superb home is just a short stroll to the pretty open spaces of Woodlands Park with its verdant fields, stream and pond and is also within walking distance to the town centre.
The main house boasts over 3,000 sq.ft of accommodation scaling three floors and is presented in excellent condition. Of particular note is the impressive farm-house kitchen that opens out into a large living space with stunning original granite fireplace and log burner. Double doors flood this room with natural light and invite you onto the large, south-facing walled courtyard ideal for alfresco entertaining. A separate sitting room on the other side of the house also showcases an original fireplace housing an electric fire with attractive, exposed stonework surround. A cloakroom and separate utility room completes the downstairs living accommodation.
Stairs from the entrance vestibule lead to the first floor where there are 3 double bedrooms. The larger bedroom offers an ensuite shower room and a built-in wardrobe. A second bedroom also houses a large built-in wardrobe. Further landing storage and a luxurious family bathroom complete this floor before inviting you out into the stair well to discover more on the second floor.
Practically a mirror-image to downstairs, there are three further double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes, a separate office and an elegant family shower-room. Immaculately presented throughout, all 6 bedrooms delight in their south-facing aspect and feature various nods to this home’s history with exposed stonework and beams.
Outside, a detached studio (currently operating as an Air BnB) provides additional accommodation with an open-plan and is ripe for a plethora of uses – from friends and family staying over to home workplace, gym or even a slice of independence for a growing teenager or older child – the possibilities are endless.
The utterly glorious and private garden, enclosed by mature trees and high hedging offers a peaceful and secluded haven in which to while away the hours, lying out on the level, lush lawn or spending time with family and friends.
An additional, attached garage as well as ample parking ensure that it is a pleasure to arrive at this lovingly maintained family home.
