ACCOMMODATION

A rare opportunity to acquire a unique three double bedroom property which has come to the market for the first time in 35 years in the historic setting of Membland, requiring some modernisation. A peaceful hamlet steeped in history situated just over a mile east of the creek side villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo. Originally part of the Revelstoke Estate this superb 18th Century Grade II Listed property benefits from many period features and spacious accommodation. The property enjoys a generous mature enclosed garden with the added benefit of a detached double garage and ample off road parking. Within walking distance of stunning National Trust coastal walks, beaches and the estuary villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo. From the rear garden, part glazed double doors open into the garden room with quarry tiled floor and exposed stonework to one wall. A glazed door leads into the entrance hallway, with stairs to first floor. The sitting room is beautifully proportioned with a high ceiling, deep window sills and French doors opening out to the main courtyard, a feature stone built fireplace with slate hearth and granite mantel fitted with a wood burning stove. There is an inner hallway with attractive archway leading through to the kitchen/dining room fitted with a range of oak floor base and wall units.

SITUATION

Membland is a peaceful hamlet steeped in history situated just over a mile east of the creek side villages of Newton Ferrers and Noss Mayo. The sale of Membland Hall during the 1880s to Edward Baring, 1st Lord Revelstoke, a very rich London banking merchant and his wife, formerly Louisa Bulteel, set the stage for the transformation of the Hall and its buildings on the 4135 acre estate. Lady Baring instigated the creation of the Nine Mile Carriage Drive from Membland Hall down to Bridgend, through Noss Mayo and along the estuary where it curved eastwards along the cliffs towards Stoke before descending down to Membland again. It encompassed a large area of the estate and provides outstanding views towards Wembury and the sea and this walk can still be enjoyed today.
