5 bed detached house for sale

Newton Road, Teignmouth TQ14

Built in 1997, this striking contemporary home commands an enviable position with uninterrupted views across the Teign Estuary and rolling Devon hills. Constructed from locally sourced stone, the property is a testament to the owners’ impeccable taste and eye for design, offering flexible accommodation suited to modern family living, multigenerational needs, or work-from-home lifestyles—with scope to adapt to a buyer’s vision.

Currently arranged as a spacious five-bedroom home, the layout includes a self-contained one-bedroom annexe to the east wing and a dedicated business suite to the west. Planning consent is in place for a detached annexe within the grounds, designed to mirror the main home’s elegant stone façade.

The property is approached via a private driveway, opening onto a generous gravelled turning area with ample parking. A grand pillared entrance leads into an elegant hallway with bifurcated stairs rising to a bright galleried landing. The central hall acts as the heart of the home, with principal reception rooms thoughtfully positioned to the front to take full advantage of the breathtaking views and landscaped grounds.

Every main room is designed to celebrate the panoramic outlook, with floor-to-ceiling picture windows and doors that seamlessly connect interior and exterior spaces.

The sitting and dining rooms can be opened into one flowing space—ideal for entertaining—with bi-fold doors across the southerly aspect opening onto a wide terrace. The kitchen/breakfast room is both stylish and practical, featuring ample storage, integrated appliances, a Britannia range cooker, and a central island. There's also space for informal dining, perfect for family meals.

In the east wing, you’ll find a gardener’s WC, a well-equipped utility room, a cloakroom, and internal access to the one-bedroom annexe with its own garden and open-plan kitchen/living area. The west wing houses a spacious study and a self-contained commercial suite, currently configured with two treatment rooms, a reception, and a cloakroom. This flexible space could easily be reimagined as a gym, studio, or reintegrated into the main residence (subject to consents).

Upstairs, the principal suite is a true sanctuary, with triple-aspect windows framing spectacular views, a generous en suite bathroom, and dual dressing rooms. Three further en suite bedrooms all enjoy far-reaching vistas, along with a nursery or optional dressing room.

Grounds and Gardens

The setting is exceptional. The private driveway leads to a substantial gravelled area with parking for multiple vehicles. The gardens and grounds span approximately 12 acres, offering a blend of manicured lawns, woodland, a vegetable garden, and a paddock.

The lawns sweep from the house toward the estuary, framed by a wide terrace ideal for al fresco dining. Woodland with native and specimen trees supports local wildlife and seasonal interest. Well-stocked borders offer year-round colour, while a productive vegetable patch adds to the charm of country living.
