4 bedroom detached house for sale

Sellers Story"I’ve loved living at Parkfield Court, not just because of the house itself, but because of everything that surrounds it. It’s incredibly peaceful here. Most of the time, all I can hear is birdsong, and yet I’m only a mile and a half from Ashburton, the A38, and the edge of Dartmoor. It’s a perfect balance, quiet and rural, but never remote.
The courtyard is a real suntrap and makes the heart of the home feel like a private retreat, especially in the warmer months. I’m surrounded by beautiful countryside, with walks and riding routes in every direction. The views are constantly changing with the seasons and are something I’ll really miss.
The house was built with practicality and longevity in mind, everything is on one level, with wide access, double doors front and back, which could make it easily adapted for wheelchair users. It’s solidly constructed using high-quality materials and is surprisingly economical to run for a home of this size.
I’ve also felt a strong sense of community here with a supportive, neighbourly spirit, one of those rare places where you can feel truly at home from day one. And with excellent schools nearby, both state and independent, it’s a great area for families as well."
