About this property

  • Designed in a traditional barn style, 2 Old Blamphayne Sawmills combines flint stone and colour-washed timber-clad elevations beneath a slate roof, blending period character with contemporary design. The property benefits from an elevated south-facing position within an attractive courtyard setting, enjoying far-reaching countryside views.

    The light-filled accommodation is enhanced by extensive glazing, vaulted ceilings and an open-plan layout, all designed to maximise the far-reaching countryside views. Features include exposed oak timbers, oak joinery, underfloor heating and quality wood flooring.

    The ground floor comprises an impressive entrance hall with galleried staircase, a sitting room with wood-burning stove, a fitted study with bespoke Neville Johnson furniture, ideal for home working. There is also a utility room, cloakroom and a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/living space with vaulted ceiling, skylights and French doors opening onto the garden and terrace.

    On the first floor, there is a principal bedroom suite, a guest bedroom suite, and two further bedrooms which share a family bathroom. A separate galleried area overlooks the living space and leads to the principal bedroom suite, featuring a striking gable-end window framing exceptional rural views, a balcony with garden access, a dressing area and a generous en suite bathroom.

    Outside, the property stands in approximately one-third of an acre and enjoys an elevated position surrounded by open countryside. Landscaped gardens provide gently sloping lawns, well-stocked shrub borders, a terrace ideal for outdoor entertaining, a small orchard and a variety of mature planting.

    The upper garden enjoys particularly impressive views across the surrounding Devon landscape. To the front is a large shared gravel courtyard leading to a double garage, with additional practical features including external lighting, power and water.
