Description

This remarkable Grade II* listed country residence offers a unique opportunity for restoration and investment, nestled within the serene Arlington Court Estate on over 4 acres of land. The property, dating back to circa 1825, is steeped in history and retains numerous period features such as elegant sash windows, original balustrading, and ornate plasterwork. With five reception rooms and five bedrooms, this home provides generous space for both living and potential renovation. While some refurbishment has commenced—including updated bathrooms and electrical systems—further work is necessary to complete the vision of an exquisite family home that reflects its historical significance. The expansive grounds have become overgrown, presenting the perfect canvas for landscaping to create formal gardens or recreational areas. Additionally, various outbuildings offer flexible use possibilities subject to planning permissions. Notably, partial foundations exist for a pre-approved swimming pool and tennis court, awaiting completion. Located within proximity of Exmoor National Park and the stunning North Devon coastline, this property combines tranquil living with access to excellent outdoor activities. A viewing is essential to fully appreciate the potential that lies within this historic estate.
