This home's scenery is nothing short of breathtaking. You'll find it nestled amidst two-hundred-and-fifty acres of natural woodland, a stone's throw from the glistening waters of Roadford Lake and set against the dramatic tors of Dartmoor National Park. Here, you're an easy drive from the best of West Devon and North Cornwall, including the market town of Okehampton, Tintagel Castle and Widemouth Bay. Between adventures, you'll love kicking back in this cosy pad. Spacious, stylishly furnished and brimming with contemporary comforts, it's primed for relaxation. Throughout, large windows usher in floods of sunlight while offering picturesque views of your leafy surroundings. We especially love the open-plan living area, where a huddle of plush sofas blend seamlessly into a large dining bench and a sleek, fully-equipped kitchen. After a day spent hiking through the Moors, strolling around historic villages or enjoying the lake's ample water sports opportunities, enjoy an alfresco feast on the patio. Come sunset, take a relaxing dip in the bubbling hot tub before retreating to the sumptuous bedrooms for a restful slumber.
