4 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Trusham

THE PROPERTY Set in an elevated position within the Teign Valley village of Trusham, Woodlands is a detached four-bedroom home shaped by light, space and far reaching rural views. The house sits centrally within its established plot of approximately 0.3 acres, just outside the conservation area, with mature gardens, generous parking and a broad outlook across the valley.

The current owners have carried out a thoughtful programme of improvement, creating a lighter and more cohesive home. The kitchen has been refreshed and opened into the dining and living space, giving the upper floor a natural sense of flow, while a separate sitting room with wood-burning stove offers a quieter retreat. Further works include a new air source heating system, replacement radiators, a new bathroom, new cloakroom, updated flooring, new internal doors and redecoration as well as a new roof.

The reverse-level layout places the principal living spaces where they can make the most of the outlook, with the four bedrooms arranged on the lower ground floor. Planning permission has also been granted for a larger glazed balcony, offering the opportunity to deepen the connection between the house and its setting.

Woodlands now presents as a comfortable, well-balanced village home in a particularly appealing position - improved, practical and quietly distinctive, with the views and plot to make it feel genuinely special.Set within its own established plot of approximately 0.3 acres.

ACCOMMODATION The kitchen, dining and living space has been thoughtfully refreshed to create a generous, sociable room with a natural sense of movement. Wide windows draw in the light and frame the surrounding greenery, while the open arrangement allows the space to work easily for everyday family life and relaxed entertaining. The kitchen includes fitted cabinetry, integrated oven, hob and dishwasher, with a calm palette that sits comfortably against the timber-effect flooring. The adjoining dining area has space for a large table and connects naturally with the main living area, giving the upper floor a relaxed, open rhythm. This is the part of the house where the setting is most keenly felt - light from different directions, glimpses of trees and valley, and a sense of openness that reflects the position of the house within its plot.

The four bedrooms are arranged on the lower ground floor, perfect for those cooler summer nghts. Each room is well placed for family life, guests or home working, with soft natural light and views towards the surrounding garden and trees. The arrangement gives the house a pleasing sense of separation: open, sociable living upstairs and calm private rooms below. The current owners have updated the interiors with new carpets, redecoration and new internal doors, creating a cleaner and more cohesive finish throughout.

Alongside the main living accommodation, Woodlands offers useful flexible space for modern village life. The study provides a dedicated room for working from home, reading or quiet retreat, set apart from the busier areas of the house. The new utility/boot room offers the added luxury of a dedicated space for laundry, cleaning and storage. For buyers looking for adaptable accommodation, this is a valuable part of the layout. It allows the house to work not only as a family home, but as a place for those who need space to work, think or simply step away.

The family bathroom has been replaced by the current owners and now offers a clean, contemporary finish with both bath and separate shower. Simple lines, pale surfaces and considered lighting give the room a composed and quietly luxurious feel. A newly created cloakroom adds further convenience on the principal living floor, finished with the same sense of care and attention found elsewhere in the house.

Together with the wider improvements - including the new heating system, updated radiators, flooring and redecoration - these details give Woodlands a noticeably refined and comfortable feel.
 

OUTSIDE Woodlands sits centrally within an established plot of approximately 0.3 acres, giving the house a pleasing sense of privacy, balance and space. Mature trees, hedging and planted borders frame the gardens, with areas of lawn and seating positioned to enjoy the outlook.

To the front, a generous driveway provides ample parking and leads to the large garage, now fitted with a new garage door. There is also a shed and useful external storage.

The gardens slope away from the house, allowing the views to open across the Teign Valley and towards the surrounding wooded hills. This outlook is one of the defining features of the property. Planning permission has been granted for a large glazed balcony, creating the opportunity to enjoy the views more directly from the principal living accommodation.

The house is positioned just outside the Trusham conservation area, while still enjoying the character, setting and community of the village.
