Park Hill Lodge is a unique detached property understood to have been created from a former barn and cottage with origins dating back around two centuries. It now offers a spacious home with flexible accommodation including bedroom and living accommodation on each floor, making it easily adaptable for multi-generational living.
The original building is believed to have had links to Arthur Conan Doyle, the author of Sherlock Holmes and The Hound of the Baskervilles, who it is understood stayed at nearby Park Hill House.
Outside, there are gardens with lawn and a large decked entertaining area, an impressive oversized detached double garage building, parking for several vehicles and an adjoining paddock of around 0.76 of an acre (as measured on Promap) - perfect for running a few sheep or a horse/ponies and with a two modern timber stables.
Park Hill Cross is located on the A381 just before the main entrance to Ipplepen village, around 3 miles from Newton Abbot and 4 miles from Totnes. The village has a good selection of local amenities to include a shop, newsagents and post office, pub, church, doctors surgery and primary school. There is also a popular village hall and play park. Dartmoor National Park and the beautiful south Devon coastline are within striking distance and Orley Common is located a short distance away with nearby bridle paths.
