A beautiful semi-detached Victorian Villa offering spacious accommodation with an abundance of period features. Situated on the edge of Horrabridge, in Dartmoor National Park, this property is set back from the road via a sweeping driveway, in an elevated position with some fantastic views across the Walkham Valley. ‘West Park Villas‘ has been a happy family home for the last 40 years, with the owners retaining much of the original character of the house, whilst updating bathrooms in a heritage style to compliment the decor. You enter to a grand entrance hall, with a turning staircase opening up to a galleried landing. To the right is a stunning sitting room with a marble fireplace and bay window overlooking the front garden. To the other side is the formal dining room, which has another original fireplace and cornicing, with alcoves either side of the chimney breast for bookshelves. The kitchen is located at the rear with space for a range cooker and dining table, and plenty of fitted units. A useful utility room with additional storage leads out to the rear courtyard. Finally there is a third reception room/occasional bedroom on the ground floor which is conveniently located next to a shower room, ideal for any older relatives who may be visiting. There is also a rear porch off this room, which could be a home office or hobbies room.
Upstairs the bedrooms are nicely arranged off various landing levels, first we come to bedroom four which has an attractive original fireplace and is next to the family bathroom. The bathroom has a three piece heritage style suite complimented by panelling. There are three further double bedrooms and a single bedroom which is currently equipped with bunk beds. The three bedrooms along the front all benefit from a lush green outlook and lovely views over the valley. The main bedroom is a beautifully bright room with a large bay window to sit in and soak up the sun, a perfect spot to sit and read whilst enjoying a morning coffee. Bedroom three is set up as a recording studio for any budding music producers!
Externally the gardens amount to just over half an acre with different spots to sit and take in the peaceful surroundings. Directly outside the front of the house is a small private lawned area with pretty borders and a sheltered picnic area under a mature Magnolia tree. Across the driveway is the main part of the garden which has a BBQ/seating area and a path taking you up to the upper part of the garden. Here you will find a large level lawn, previously a tennis court, with a greenhouse and more views. At the back of the house is a rustic courtyard with plenty of space for potted plants and a useful double car port for storage. There is parking on the gravelled driveway for in excess of five cars.

What Other Related Technologies Does PropertyHeads Use, and Why?
Tracking Pixels: Our advertising partners may use tracking pixels or similar technology to measure the success of the sponsored posts or other advertising products they use. A “tracking pixel” (also sometimes called web beacon, or clear GIF) is a tiny piece of code, invisible to the user, placed on a webpage or in an email and used in combination with a cookie, to link a given activity or impression back to the user; the advertiser includes it in its content so it can measure whether our members interact with that content (for example, by clicking to view an offer). We may set our own tracking pixel on an advertiser’s website so we can measure whether our members found the advertiser’s content effective or interesting, by tracking whether the sponsored post prompted members to take advantage of the advertised offer. This information helps us assess whether sponsored posts and other advertising offers are relevant and interesting to our members and successful for the advertiser.
