Property description
Painsford Manor is a fine Grade II listed detached country house that provides six bedrooms and a wealth of period character. The barns and historic stone outbuildings comprise more than 13,000 sq. Ft and provide the potential for development with lapsed planning permission for several additional dwellings.
Character features in the main house include exposed timber beams, wood panelling, high ceilings and exposed brickwork, as well as large sash windows welcoming plenty of natural light. The ground floor provides two kitchens, one of which could be used as a utility room, with both being large enough to fit a dining table as well as fitted units and all the necessary appliances. The larger of the two kitchens includes an Aga. Also on the ground floor, there are two comfortable reception rooms, in the sitting room and family room. Both are similarly proportioned, with the sitting room featuring a brick-built fireplace.
The first floor has five beautifully presented double bedrooms, including a generous principal bedroom and a grand second bedroom with rich wood panelling and a fireplace. The first floor also has a family bathroom, while the second floor offers an additional double bedroom, as well as a family bathroom<br /><br />The outbuildings include a large cattle barn, stables and other assorted farm buildings, including two large stone buildings which are subject to redevelopment plans. They offer significant potential as additional family homes, rental properties or holiday lets (subject to the necessary consents). The house and outbuildings are accessed via the driveway, which leads to courtyard areas with plenty of parking space and access to the barns and stables. The house itself has a delightful garden with rolling lawns and meadows, patio areas and various established shrubs, trees and flowering perennials. Beyond the garden, the grounds extend to surrounding fields and meadows, which provide plenty of grazing pasture for livestock, or training and exercising grounds for horses.<br /><br />The property is set in a stunning rural location, close to the small and peaceful village of Harbertonford, on the edge of the South Devon National Landscape. The village has a post office, a village hall, a parish church and a primary school, while a range of amenities can be found in Totnes, three miles away. Facilities at Totnes include a variety of shops, supermarkets and a choice of schooling, including the outstanding The Grove School and for secondary, King Edward VI Community College.
