Beaston is a hamlet situated around half a mile west of Broadhempston, a quintessential Devon village set in the rolling South Hams countryside and with a history dating back to Saxon times. It lies roughly at the centre of a triangle between the towns of Ashburton, Totnes and Newton Abbot. The village has a strong local community and amenities including a first class primary school, well stocked community village stores, village hall which runs many courses and clubs, two lovely old inns, and ancient church. The renowned Riverford Farm Shop and Field Restaurant is just a short drive away. Totnes is around 5 miles and Ashburton around 4, whilst the A38 for Plymouth and Exeter takes just 12 minutes by car.
Broadview is an individual family-sized home which has been remodelled and upgraded in recent years. The ground floor includes a living area which connects to a sun deck and the garden via bi-fold doors, and has a cosy wood-burner. This room also flows nicely into the kitchen as well as a second living-dining space with a further wood-burner. Living in the countryside a boot room/utility is essential and this is well catered for with a generous sized room which also houses the wood pellett biomass boiler and hot water storage making this a good drying space. There is an array of PV panels on the south-facing slope and a shower room/WC completes the ground floor accommodation.
Many of the rooms overlook the neighbouring countryside with the three first floor bedrooms having particularly good far reaching views. There is a main bathroom and shower postioned on the first floor.
Outside, the south-facing mostly walled gardens are superbly planted with a huge range of colourful shrubs, plants and trees - enough to keep the keenest of gardeners entertained. There is gated parking for several vehicles, an open-fronted garage, greenhouse, garden shed and a general store which is large enough to create a studio or workshop, subject to any required consents.
