Exeter Express and Echo

ONCE run as a bed and breakfast but now serving as a family home, this early 19th century residence has undergone extensive restoration over the years and retains many period features.

Offering extensive and flexible accommodation over three floors, Branscombe House in Highweek Village on the edge of Newton Abbot includes three staircases as well as a wing to the side with its own entrance – all combining to offer real income potential.

This classic period home is accessed via an entrance vestibule and a wooden door into the large entrance hall with exposed floorboards, wall mouldings, high skirting boards and an original open staircase to the first floor.

The large sitting room and dining rooms sit either side of the entrance hall at the south-facing front of the property. Each elegant room comes with a large bay window, ornate coving and a feature fireplace with wood burning stove and tiled hearth as well as a period marble surround in the dining room.

In the rear lobby are doors to the garden and two kitchens. The main kitchen is fitted with matching cabinets with solid wood work surfaces, breakfast bar and Aga. A door from here leads to another staircase and an opening leads into the utility room fitted with matching cabinets, solid wood work surfaces, sink unit, combination boiler and space for appliances.

When the property was run as a bed and breakfast the second kitchen was provided as an area for guests to make drinks and snacks and is fitted with a range of units, sink and extractor hood, again with space for appliances.

A door from here leads into a useful drying room with tiled flooring and a tall storage cupboard. These rooms have the potential to be re-designed to create a generously-sized and highly-impressive kitchen and breakfast room with utility (subject to planning permission). From the first floor split landing are stairs leading to the second floor and doors to three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a cloakroom and the annexe. The cloakroom is fitted with a white two-piece suite while each bathroom is very large and comes fitted with a white three-piece suite – one with dual showers and the other with shower attachments and a feature ornate fireplace and attractive surround. The second and third bedrooms are large doubles and feature bay windows as well attractive open fireplaces – bedroom two includes an en-suite bathroom – while the fourth bedroom is also a double.

The master suite is on the second floor, complete with exposed wooden roof trusses and an arched window with wooden shutters.
