A Contemporary Countryside Retreat in Halberton, Devon

Tucked away in the picturesque village of Halberton, this beautifully reimagined family home combines sleek modern living with the charm of a Devon village setting. Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, it offers a refined interior, versatile spaces for both work and play, and a landscaped garden designed for year-round entertaining.

All this, just minutes from the historic market town of Tiverton, excellent road and rail links, and the prestigious Blundell’s School—making it the perfect retreat for families who want both convenience and a taste of country life.

A Warm Welcome

As you step into the porch, the attention to detail is immediately clear. Rich wood-effect flooring, clever built-in storage, and a glazed door invite you deeper inside, where an elegant hallway with inset lighting and a contemporary vertical radiator sets the tone for the home’s seamless blend of function and style.

Spaces That Work for Modern Living

At the front of the house, a bright home office provides the ideal work-from-home environment, while the lounge—with its large picture window and cosy proportions—is designed for relaxed evenings with family or friends.

The flow continues into the spectacular kitchen-diner the undoubted heart of this home. Here, every detail has been designed with both form and function in mind. Sleek cabinetry, a range of high-spec integrated appliances, and a walk-in pantry are complemented by a striking central island, complete with induction hob, wine chiller, breakfast bar seating, and plenty of storage.

This space isn’t just about cooking—it’s about gathering. Whether it’s a quiet morning coffee or a lively dinner party, the open-plan layout and wide sliding doors connecting to the garden make it the ultimate social hub.

A utility room with stable door access to the driveway adds practicality, while a sleek cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Comfort Upstairs

Upstairs, the home offers four beautifully appointed bedrooms. The main bedroom is a true retreat, with dual windows framing countryside views and an adjoining dressing area Three further bedrooms—two doubles and a single—provide flexible space for children, guests, or even an additional study.

The family bathroom brings a touch of spa-like luxury, featuring a deep bathtub, walk-in rainfall shower, vanity basin, and contemporary tiling.

Gardens Made for Living

Outside, the property is just as impressive. The front garden is neatly landscaped with lawn, trees, and a slate-paved path leading to the front door, while a private driveway offers parking for three cars and access to the garage.

To the rear, the garden has been thoughtfully designed to extend the living space outdoors. A large patio with a covered gazebo creates an inviting area for entertaining, while raised beds add greenery and seasonal colour. The remaining lawn provides plenty of space for play, with a tucked-away storage area behind the garage.
