Property description

An exquisite property situated in an elevated position which provides stunning views within the popular area of Lustleigh. The property offers

luxurious living space along with large gardens, orchard and paddock. The property has been recently refurbished and extended to a very high

standard combining the character of barrel ceilings and mural with modern features that make this a spectacular place to live!  

Coombe Orchard is a superb property in a stunning location. The house dates from the late nineteenth century when the Arts and Craft Movement was at its height. The present owners were immediately charmed by the striking façade with its romantic turret and other architectural influences

they discovered in the house.



Coombe Orchard was in need of refurbishment and the owners relished this restoration project. They have extended the house, whilst ensuring that it stayed true to its heritage. With scrupulous attention to detail and great care they transformed the house, creating a seamless fusion of

modern luxury with original features.



Sitting on a hillside, overlooking the beauty and peace of the surrounding countryside, Coombe Orchard is a delight of chic, modern and comfortable sunny rooms, where the outside world creates beautiful backdrops through the generous windows. Each room has its special wow factor and the large sociable living space of the kitchen is where

family life is centred. Doors open onto the south facing deck that stretches along the house. It is a glorious place to enjoy an al fresco meal or simply savour the ever changing but always idyllic view. In summer, with doors open wide, the house is at its sunniest best. The sitting room is a cosy winter retreat, where you can nestle down in front of the glowing log burner.



The master bedroom on the lower ground floor is an ideal sanctuary, and to wake to an uninterrupted view of nature at its best, is the perfect way to begin each day. However the turret bedroom is where you can lie in bed and wonder at the fine fresco on the barrel shaped ceiling. It is the work

of an Italian artist, Giuseppe Marcucci who visited the house when it was an annexe of Coombe House, and is a very special unique and romantic feature.



The wow factor continues in the gardens. You can work in the greenhouse or choose to wander through the grounds, past flower beds, orchard and field to the village. Each season has its own character, but spring at Coombe Orchard provides an abundance of blossom and colour that is magical.



Lustleigh is a friendly village with May Day and August Bank Holiday celebrations. Newton Abbot is nearby and you can quickly access the A38 and be in Exeter or Plymouth in less than half an hour. Coombe Orchard is truly magnificent and the owners will sorely miss the house that has the ability to lift the spirits and please the eye. 

LOCATION Lustleigh is one of Dartmoor's most popular villages, a delightful combination of pretty thatched cottages and period houses. The village is centred on a square where there is the Parish Church, ancient inn, tea room, dairy and general stores. The surrounding countryside is some of the prettiest on the moor with wooded valleys, rolling pasture and rugged open moorland. The keen walker and rider will find much of interest in

the quiet country lanes, footpaths and bridleways in the area. Amenities outside the village will be found in the nearby towns of moretonhampstead and Bovey Tracey. Each has a good range of shops and businesses, schools, libraries, health centres, sports and leisure facilities to name but a few. Exeter, Devon's principal city and economic centre, is approximately 16 miles away and can be reached either by a direct route from Moretonhampstead or via the A38 dual carriageway. Exeter provides a wide range of amenities including a first class shopping centre, airport, mainline railway station and link to the M5 motorway.
