Description

Pitt Park is an exceptional country home offering elegant and flexible living in the heart of Dartmoor. The house has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment throughout, with careful attention paid to preserving period features blended with modern day living.

A welcoming entrance hall leads into a large kitchen/breakfast room fitted with bespoke cabinetry and integrated appliances. This opens into the dining area, with a wood burner dividing the two spaces creating wonderful entertaining space. French doors open directly onto a south-facing terrace, perfect for al fresco dining and enjoying the peaceful rural setting.

A separate sitting room features an impressive fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space. The ground floor also includes an office, a boot room and a utility room

Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms, including a beautifully appointed principal suite with countryside views. The family bathroom and additional bedrooms all reflect the same high standard of finish and design.

The Coach House is a stylish and flexible two-bedroom annexe. The accommodation includes a contemporary kitchen, large utility room, and a vaulted reception room with exposed beams and a wood-burning stove. The Coach House has operated as a holiday let, offering income potential. Equally, it provides ideal accommodation for guests or extended family.
