Woodchurch, Crapstone, PL20 7UX

Occupying a wonderfully private position just yards from the open expanses of Dartmoor, this unique detached residence offers an exceptional combination of generous and versatile accommodation, established gardens and approximately 1.5 acres of private woodland.

Set within a quiet and highly sought-after crescent comprising just five individual homes, the property enjoys a peaceful setting on the very edge of the moors, while remaining well placed for nearby amenities and surrounding villages.

Built in the year 2000, the house was individually designed.

The result is a distinctive and substantial home with a particularly adaptable layout, offering excellent flexibility for family life, working from home or accommodating guests.

The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into a lobby with useful built-in storage.

At the heart of the house is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, creating a sociable and relaxed everyday living environment.

The living area is comfortably tucked away to one end and centres around a Dean Forge woodburning stove with bespoke black slate mantel, while two sets of patio doors open directly onto the generous raised decked terrace, providing an excellent connection between the house and gardens.

The kitchen is fitted with an attractive range of wooden cabinetry together with a peninsula-style island and tiled flooring.

Recent additions include a Rangemaster cooker, integrated Bosch dishwasher and updated sink, mixer tap and work surfaces.

From here, a door leads into the adjoining utility room, which has been comprehensively updated with replacement cabinetry and worktops, an integrated fridge/freezer and plumbing for a washing machine.

A recently installed Worcester combination boiler is also located here, while the replacement rear door provides further access outside.

In addition to the principal open-plan living space is a separate and generously proportioned dining room, providing a more formal entertaining area or an additional reception room if preferred.

The flexibility continues with a further ground-floor room, currently arranged as a study which could be equally suited as a fifth bedroom.

A downstairs shower room completes the ground-floor accommodation, making the layout particularly useful for those seeking multi-generational living or accessible guest accommodation.

Upstairs are four bedrooms, including two particularly generous doubles with extensive built-in storage.

The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a separate family shower room.

The bedrooms and landing were re-carpeted in 2025, with extensive redecoration also undertaken throughout the upper floor.

Externally, the property is complemented by a double garage and beautifully established gardens which wrap around the house.

Immediately adjoining the living accommodation is a substantial raised terrace, recently renewed with low-maintenance non-slip composite decking and providing an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The gardens beyond have been thoughtfully landscaped, originally planted and designed by Hillier Nurseries, with a wide variety of mature shrubs and planting, areas of lawn and attractive pathways meandering through the grounds.

The pathways have more recently been upgraded with membrane and granite stone to aid ease of maintenance.

A particularly attractive feature is the bespoke cedar-clad greenhouse and adjoining garden store, individually constructed on site by a local carpenter and sitting naturally within the established surroundings.

Perhaps the property's most unusual feature is its 1.5 acres of private woodland.

Accessed directly from the garden through a gated opening within the traditional Devon bank, a gravel pathway leads into the first section of the woods, creating a wonderful extension to the formal gardens and an increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy a substantial area of private woodland immediately adjoining the home.

A purpose-built wood store is also located within the woodland.

With open moorland only yards away, approximately 1.5 acres of its own woodland, beautifully established gardens, a double garage and highly adaptable accommodation, this is a genuinely individual home in an exceptional position on the edge of Dartmoor.
