Set within the handsome and historic Oakford House, this exceptional 3/4-bedroom penthouse apartment offers a rare opportunity to own a generous and character-filled home in the heart of one of South Devon’s most picturesque villages. Benefiting from a share of the freehold, a private entrance, beautiful communal grounds, and far-reaching countryside views, this unique residence is perfect as a full-time home, an idyllic holiday retreat, or a high-quality rental investment.

Accessed via its own private entrance through a large, carpeted spiral staircase housed within a grand turret-style spire, the apartment enjoys an exclusive sense of arrival. The staircase leads into a useful utility room, ideal for coats, boots, and laundry, before continuing into the main accommodation.

The internal layout is spacious and thoughtfully arranged. A central hallway connects the principal rooms, providing a sense of flow and openness throughout. At the heart of the home is a superb parlour kitchen—a large and light-filled space with dual-aspect windows offering uninterrupted countryside views. With ample storage, generous work surfaces, and room for dining, the kitchen is both highly practical and a pleasure to spend time in.

The lounge is an outstanding feature, boasting soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, creating an atmospheric and elegant space perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Large windows frame green vistas, enhancing the room’s sense of light and openness.

The apartment includes three generous double bedrooms, two of which benefit from dual-aspect windows that make the most of the natural light and surrounding scenery. The third bedroom enjoys the privacy of its own en-suite shower room, making it a perfect guest room or main suite.

A separate office/study offers flexibility, easily adaptable as a fourth bedroom, creative studio, or nursery. A spacious family bathroom features a corner bath, ideal for unwinding at the end of the day.

Residents of Oakford House enjoy the added benefit of a share of the freehold, offering more control over the management of the building and long-term value.
