This superbly appointed detached residence was constructed in 2006 to an exacting standard and is situated in a tucked away location on the outskirts of the pretty village of Kilmington. The property sits in an elevated rural location where delightful country walks emanate from the doorstep. The house has a handsome front façade and benefits from stunning panoramic views over the adjoining countryside to the hills in the distance.

Midweek Herald: The drawing room with its vaulted ceiling is a highlight

Inside, the house is spacious and beautifully presented blending traditional features such as the exposed timbers and brick fireplace with heavy oak lintel, with stylish and contemporary design. In the past decade it has been the subject of a comprehensive programme of improvement and great care has been given to the overall finish.

At the heart of the house is an impressive, vaulted drawing room with exposed beams, a focal fireplace, a first-floor gallery and large windows affording beautiful views. This leads into the vaulted dining room with windows into the gable and French doors onto the large rear terrace. The contemporary kitchen was installed by The Colyton Kitchen Company and makes a real statement with its white high gloss units and granite worktops. Two double bedroom suites complete the ground floor.

Outside, the gardens are laid mainly to lawn with several shrub beds including a small rose garden. A terrace to the front takes advantage of the glorious views.
