Situation

Stone Lodge is pleasantly situated on the edge of ever-

popular Bishopsteignton. A nearby footpath crosses lovely

meadows and leads to an appealing estuary beach. The

village has a strong sense of community, being set above and

beside the beautiful Teign Estuary. The village has many local

amenities to include a Post Office/store, a chemist, a garden

centre, a church, a village hall, two public houses, a local real

ale brewery, a vineyard and the Cockhaven Manor Hotel.

Additionally there is a well-regarded primary school. The

seaside town of Teignmouth is around 2-miles away, with its

promenade having a classic Georgian crescent, a sandy

beach and a wide range of shops and amenities to include a

Waitrose store, a mainline railway station, a secondary

school; Trinity School offering private education and many

cafes and restaurants etc. The estuary offers good boating

opportunities and Teignmouth golf course is only 2-miles

away. Good accessibility is enjoyed to the A380, making for a

fast commute to the Cathedral City and county town of Exeter

with its International Airport and University.

Description

Stone Lodge is an excellent home, having once been the

lodge house to the rather grand Bishopsteignton House.

There is a stone pillared and gated entrance, giving a sense

of past grandeur to the drive approach. The property has

something of an interesting contrast with the characterful

accommodation of the original lodge house melding into a

beautifully finished owner architect-designed single storey

extension with free-flowing light and spacious reception rooms

being arranged around an elegant luxury kitchen area with

these spaces opening to and interacting with the beautiful

gardens and grounds. There are good views from many of the

windows towards the estuary, countryside and the sweeping

lawns and outside spaces. As well as the extensive family-

sized accommodation within the main house there is also a

useful studio/annex as well as an attached double garage and

timber outbuildings. The lovely mature gardens enjoy privacy

and seclusion and are bordered by a stream which have

extensive lawns, gravelled, decked and undercover areas. An
