DESCRIPTION
This elegant second-floor apartment is set within a Grade II* listed former manor house, featuring two ensuite bedrooms, a sitting room, and a kitchen. Marchand Petit sold the property to the current owners 8 years ago. Since then, it has been substantially refurbished and continues to be maintained to a very high standard. The estate offers beautiful communal grounds, a lake, a tennis court, a garage, allocated parking, and easy access to the A38, Dartmoor, and the coast.
ACCOMMODATION
The communal stairs lead to the second-floor apartment, where the hall offers generous storage, including a utility cupboard housing laundry appliances and a freezer. A long inner hall with tall ceilings and decorative mouldings sets the tone for the property’s elegant character. The sitting/dining room features two large sash windows with timber shutters, a decorative fireplace with a solid-fuel fire, and superb views over the grounds and tennis court. The modern kitchen enjoys the same views and includes quality fittings, Corian worktops, integrated AEG appliances, an InSinkErator all-in-one tap, and electric underfloor heating. Both spacious bedrooms reflect the home’s period style with tall ceilings and feature fireplaces, each with an ensuite shower room benefiting from electric underfloor heating and heated towel rails. Bedroom 1 also includes fitted wardrobes.
THE GROUNDS
The stunning communal grounds surround the former Manor House, accessed via a gated drive that opens into woodland and expansive lawns. Residents enjoy an idyllic lake and a tennis court.
The property also benefits from a single garage and an allocated parking space.
THE ESTATE
The Marley Estate has had a long period of ownership by the Savery family from the mid-1500s lasting until 1711. The house was partly demolished and rebuilt in the 18th and 19th centuries and was occupied by several different families, ending with the Palks and the Carews. For most of the 20th Century it was occupied by an Order of Nuns, the Bridgettines and renamed by them as Syon Abbey. Marley House was restored and the Dower Houses added in 1990s, as a private gated estate of 17 dwellings which complement the Grade II* listed Manor House and extensive grounds.
