5 bedroom house

Warleigh Acre is an immaculate new build property that was completed in 2007. The indoor pool and leisure complex were added in 2012. It is situated on the edge of Tamerton Foliot and enjoys lovely views out across the rolling countryside and over Tamerton Lake, a small tributary of the RiverTamar in the foreground. The property is surrounded by pasture and park land and comes with two paddocks accessed off the lane that extend to about four acres in total. A mixed fruit orchard, neatly laid tree and hedge planting enhance this special and tranquil space. The property is approached up a no-through lane and as a result is very private and peaceful.

First impressions are fabulous. The driveway is approached through granite pillars with the forecourt providing parking for a number of vehicles and/or boat/horse trailers. Off the parking area is a detached double garage with space for two large vehicles. Planning permission has also been granted to create a one-bedroom apartment annexe above the garage and a stable block/store in the paddocks.

The entrance porch leads through into a reception hallway with oak stairs leading up to the first-floor galleried landing. This hallway provides open plan living through to the dining room and access to the lawns and seating area through sliding doors. To the front through double oak glazed doors is a sitting room and to the rear through double oak glazed doors is a kitchen/breakfast room. The sitting room has two sets of sliding doors that lead out to the west facing front lawn and a panoramic screened window with views over the lawns. The large kitchen/breakfast room at the rear has a bespoke central island, beyond which is the utility room. The kitchen enjoys views towards Cann Woods across the valley and has access to the rear of the property and the southern lawns. Accessed off the entrance hallway is a downstairs cloakroom, W.C. and mains service cupboard. Beyond this is a large office which has sliding doors leading out onto the front terrace. This office could also be used as a cinema room, additional sitting room or a sixth bedroom/self-contained flat as it has its own entrance. Beyond the office is a stunning leisure complex with an indoor swimming pool and a self-contained gym. Beyond this is a full plant room. The swimming pool hall and water are program temperature controlled. Within the pool area is a sitting area and bi-fold doors which lead out onto the upper front terrace.

The pool and leisure complex won the LABC “Self Build Extension of the Year” award across the whole of the Southwest region in 2012.

Oak stairs lead up to the first-floor galleried landing and atrium, above which is a sky lantern roof creating a light and airy feel. There are a total of five bedrooms and a family bathroom. Two of the bedrooms have juliet balconies off them with views out across the water and one of these two bedrooms has its own en-suite shower room. The fifth bedroom is currently used as a study and has a door leading out onto a west-facing balcony. The principal bedroom has sliding doors leading out onto the balcony and a large dressing room with an en-suite bathroom with a double shower. There is also a bath within the principal bathroom..

The property has gas boiler central heating via vertical radiators. The property has high speed broadband and there are Wi-Fi boosters positioned throughout the house.

Outside to the front and side of the property is laid lawns and there is an elevated grass/patio terrace with views out across Tamerton Lake. The two paddocks across from the main house are particularly special and ensure that the property owns its views down to the waterside. The property has a lovely secluded and peaceful feel to it and enjoys far reaching rural views.

The property is within less than five minutes walking distance to the three pubs and convenience store/Post Office within the village and is within easy commuting distance to both
