Dira Barton is an impressive Grade II listed former dower house to Creedy Park, offering over 6,200 sq ft of characterful living space across three floors. This 17th-century country home combines historical charm with modern conveniences, making it a versatile opportunity for families and investors alike. The ground floor is designed for spacious living, featuring multiple reception areas filled with natural light. The entrance hall doubles as a dining area, leading to an expansive drawing room perfect for gatherings. A traditional kitchen equipped with an oil-fired AGA and informal dining space connects to a snug sitting room with a wood-burning stove overlooking the gardens. Additional rooms include a games/playroom and a large home office, alongside essential utility spaces for everyday functionality.
On the upper levels, the principal suite and guest suite offer stunning views over the gardens and Dartmoor. There are three more bedrooms, a family bathroom, and convenient dressing room facilities on this level. Notably, there’s a separate annex that currently has planning permission for conversion into further accommodation—a fantastic avenue for expansion or rental potential. The top floor houses another bedroom and bathroom ideal for guests or family.
Set within approximately 51 acres of diverse landscapes—including formal gardens, orchards, pastures, and woodlands—Dira Barton presents ample scope for outdoor pursuits along with features like a floodlit tennis court and greenhouse. The existing mobile home site offers potential for ancillary accommodation (subject to planning). Ideal for equestrian use with quality pasture land also enhances the investment allure.
A range of substantial outbuildings—including a Grade II listed barn—adds further renovation prospects; these can be transformed into leisure or residential spaces (pending planning permissions). This property not only offers seclusion but also excellent accessibility via major road networks and proximity to Exeter's amenities.
Dira Barton's unique combination of expansive land, historic architecture, and versatile outbuildings makes it an enticing prospect for those interested in creating their ideal countryside estate or multi-generational living arrangements.
