Dartmouth, Devon TQ6

Originally built in the 1800s, Broome Court has been thoughtfully transformed over the years into the exceptional country house it is today. More recently, the property has undergone an extensive renovation programme, both inside and out, creating a unique and spacious home that seamlessly combines its original character with elegant modern touches. Set in an idyllic rural location, the house is surrounded by established gardens and enjoys uninterrupted views across the surrounding South Hams countryside.

The property is arranged around a central courtyard, with a striking south-facing glass passageway forming the principal entrance hall. There are several beautifully presented reception rooms, including the sitting room, library, a conservatory and a summer room which features a Scandi-style log burner, vaulted ceiling, exposed timber beams and wonderful views over the gardens. The 27ft characterful kitchen and dining room is a particular highlight, with rustic overhead timber beams, bespoke modern units an Everhot range and space for a large family dining table. The ground floor further offers a home office, kitchenette and snug, located within a separate wing to provide excellent flexibility for both family living and home working. Upstairs, the main house has five well-appointed bedrooms, including the principal bedroom which benefits from a triple aspect welcoming plenty of natural light, a dressing room and an en suite bathroom. Two of the bedrooms on this floor also benefit from en suite facilities, while there is also a family bathroom.

The self-contained annexe is located on the first floor and accessed via its own private external staircase. There is a fully equipped kitchen, a beautifully presented sitting room and one large double bedroom en suite as well as an additional shower room.

The beautifully established gardens surrounding the property are a standout feature, offering a wonderful sense of tranquillity and seclusion. Set within just under an acre, the grounds include rolling lawns, well-stocked flowerbeds, a selection of maturing fruit trees, a fruit cage and a small copse. There are numerous peaceful seating areas throughout the garden including a spacious rear terrace, ideal for al fresco dining and enjoying the exceptional views over the neighbouring farmland and the Blackpool Valley. The grounds also include a central Mediterranean style courtyard which features maturing rose beds, an ornamental pond, Yorkshire stone, Rothendale sandstone cobble setts and gravel pathways with inset lighting, complimented by established trees and shrubs.
