AT A GLANCE
A substantial contemporary home arranged over three imaginative levels, offering six double bedrooms, outstanding open-plan living, a bespoke bar/media suite and an integral double garage. Privately tucked away on the edge of Bittaford, Monty House comes with sweeping landscaped gardens, sun-trap terraces and far-reaching countryside views, yet lies barely two miles from Ivybridge and the A38 for swift access to Plymouth, Exeter and the South Hams coast.
ACCOMMODATION
Step through an oak-framed, glass-panelled front door into a generous reception lobby – a versatile space that instantly hints at the scale of the house. To one side is a cloakroom/WC and a fully-fitted utility/boot room. Double doors reveal the Bar / Media Room, complete with bespoke counter, back-lit shelving and integrated AV wall – the perfect place for big-screen sport or drinks with friends. This level also houses: a Home Office / Occasional bedroom ideal for guests or working from home, a Workshop / Store, and access to the double garage.
A sweeping staircase ushers you onto the main living floor, where a dramatic, vaulted dining hall with galleried mezzanine sets the tone for grand entertaining, its glazed doors spilling onto a wrap-around balcony that drinks in the sunshine. From here the heart of the home unfolds: a show-stopping kitchen/breakfast room dressed in sleek charcoal cabinetry, lustrous granite and a statement island—the perfect stage for coffee at dawn or cocktails at dusk—flowing seamlessly into an elegant, triple-aspect sitting room anchored by a limestone fireplace and wood-burning stove, with French doors tempting guests straight onto the elevated terrace. Two generous double bedrooms lie discreetly to one side, both complemented by a boutique-style family bathroom complete with roll-top tub, classic panelling and a heritage suite, an indulgent retreat after a day exploring the South Hams.
The top floor unfolds as an exclusively private sanctuary: the luxurious principal suite steals the show with its wall of bespoke cabinetry, twin roof windows framing rolling countryside views and a sleek, en-suite featuring a floating vanity and walk-in shower. Two further light-filled bedrooms tuck neatly beneath the eaves, while a flexible study or nursery sits quietly nearby. A family bathroom—complete this floor with a full-size tub and separate glass-screened shower.
OUTSIDE
Opening onto a broad forecourt that comfortably swallows several cars—leaving ample room for the boat, camper-van or visiting friends. Step from the kitchen onto a glass-balustraded balcony, its tiled surface perfect for lazy alfresco breakfasts while you gaze across the treetops, then follow the steps down to a generous porcelain-paved entertaining terrace: subtly lit, stone-faced and tailor-made for sunset barbecues. From here, wide tiled stairs rise to sweeping lawns that weave around mature trees, deep herbaceous banks and statement shrubs, creating secret nooks for a morning coffee or a game of chase with the children. Bordered by woodland, the half-acre plot feels wonderfully private and stays verdant through every season—beautiful to look at, yet surprisingly easy to maintain.
LOCATION
Monty House nestles on the rural fringe of Bittaford, a friendly South Hams village with pub, village hall and regular bus service. The larger town of Ivybridge (approx. 2 miles) provides supermarkets, cafés, a leisure centre, railway station (Plymouth ≈ 12 mins, Exeter ≈ 40 mins) and well-regarded schooling. Outdoor enthusiasts have Dartmoor National Park virtually on the doorstep, while the celebrated beaches of Bigbury-on-Sea, Bantham and Mothecombe are reachable within half an hour. Road links are first-class: the A38 “Devon Expressway” is less than a mile away, putting Plymouth (≈ 12 miles) and Exeter (≈ 32 miles) comfortably within commuting distance.
