Offered to the market for the very first time since its construction in 1931, Hillcote is a well-sited detached house with a large south-east facing, mostly walled garden. The house replaced an earlier dwelling which we are advised had been in the same family ownership of our vendor clients since the early/mid nineteenth century.

The accommodation is of a traditional layout with a spacious central hall off which are two attractive reception rooms, a ground floor cloakroom/WC and the kitchen. Upstairs there are four bedrooms plus bathroom and separate WC. Many of the rooms take in lovely views, via the predominantly sash windows, over the gardens and towards the green hills that surround Ashburton. The property would now benefit from improvement and modernisation and it may have potential to extend (subject to the required consents) including within the large roof space.

The gardens are a real feature of Hillcote with a sweeping lawn interspersed with established shrubs and trees, ample space for growing vegetables and a pedestrian access into Old Totnes Road/Stone Park. The main entrance is from Western Road where there is a driveway (currently for smaller cars but with potential to improve) and a useful outhouse.

Western Road connects with the town centre and has easy access to the A38 for Plymouth and Exeter at Peartree. The town centre with its excellent range of shops and amenities, including a well supported community arts centre, is an easy few minutes' walk away. There are primary and secondary schools within the town, both within walking distance. Ashburton lies on the southern boundary of Dartmoor National Park and the spectacular landscape of the open moor is just a few minutes drive away.
