4 bed detached house for sale

Court Wood, Newton Ferrers, South Devon PL8

Description

Wedgewood offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a charming pre-war home with a private quay and unparalleled westerly views over the River Yealm, situated on the highly sought-after Court Wood in Newton Ferrers.
Homes on Court Wood, a private, quiet, no-through road, rarely come to the market. This address adjoins tranquil estuary footpaths and woodland, all within a short walk of the picturesque harbour. Wedgewood, originally constructed in the 1930s, presents a unique chance for thoughtful enhancement.
The property enjoys an elevated position, offering excellent westerly views across the River Yealm towards the National Trust land. This residence is perfectly suited for sailing enthusiasts, boasting direct access to a privately owned quay and an outhaul mooring.
Steps ascend through well-stocked terraced borders to a generously sized terrace in front of the house, ideal for outdoor living and enjoying the views. A welcoming covered porch leads into a spacious entrance hallway. Designed to maximise the spectacular vista, both expansive reception rooms face west, with large picture windows providing a superb vantage point to appreciate the ever-changing scenery. A kitchen, a ground floor shower room, utility, cloakroom, and a bedroom thoughtfully complete the lower level. Upstairs, the property features two further comfortable double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a family bathroom.
To the rear, the garden provides additional terracing and a lawn, bordered by mature shrubs that ensure privacy and seclusion. A dedicated workshop offers potential for conversion into a peaceful office or creative studio with off road parking above off Lower Court Road. At street level, a detached garage (with an electric door, power, and lighting) provides secure parking, complemented by additional off-street parking for two vehicles.
