## Description

A handsome Grade II Listed Georgian residence set within circa 0.7 acres with sweeping driveway, detached garage, and south facing gardens.

Situation - Milford House is an impressive period home occupying a quiet and elevated position within the historic village of Tamerton Foliot. With road access to the front and rear the property enjoys attractive southerly views across a verdant valley.
Located on the north-western edge of Plymouth, Tamerton Foliot has retained much of its traditional charm and character. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside and offers a wealth of opportunities for walking and outdoor recreation, including access to the Tamar Valley and the AONB Discovery Trail, which begins near the village green. The village benefits from a range of local amenities including a primary school, parish church, village stores and traditional public houses, creating a strong sense of community. Its convenient location also makes it particularly appealing for those seeking a more rural lifestyle without sacrificing accessibility, with Plymouth city centre and the A38 all within easy reach.

Description - Milford House is a handsome Grade II Listed Georgian residence set within approximately 0.7 acres of secluded grounds, accessed via electric gates and a sweeping driveway. This elegant slate-hung home is bursting with period features including beautiful sash windows, impressive fireplaces, and original cabinetry. The generous and versatile accommodation has been sympathetically upgraded and offers three reception spaces, a kitchen/breakfast room, five double bedrooms, a gym/loft room and a substantial cellar.

The tiered garden slopes away from the house and is mostly laid to lawn with mature trees providing a wonderful sense of privacy. An attractive enclosed courtyard sits adjacent to the house and is an ideal space for entertaining. At the top of the sweeping driveway is a very well finished garage with EV charge point through access to the rear lane.

Accommodation - Entering through a glazed porch on the eastern elevation, a welcoming central hallway provides access to the principal accommodation. To the front of the property are two generous reception rooms, both retaining original fireplaces, built-in cabinetry and sash windows enjoying a southerly aspect across the gardens and surrounding countryside. The drawing room is a particularly inviting space, featuring parquet flooring and a multi-fuel burner.
The dining room, also with parquet flooring, leads through to the spacious kitchen, which is fitted with an extensive range of Shaker-style units, Granite worktops, a Belfast sink and stone flooring. An exposed stone wall adds character, while there is ample space for informal dining. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room with access to the enclosed courtyard, along with a cloakroom and boiler room. The ground floor also benefits from a study, currently utilised as an additional bedroom. The basement is an excellent storage space and retains its original wine cellar with flagstone floor.
A sweeping staircase rises to the first-floor landing, where there are five bedrooms and a family bathroom. The fourth bedroom was previously configured as an en-suite to the principal bedroom, with plumbing still in place should a purchaser wish to reinstate it. Above the kitchen, a converted loft room with dormer window overlooking the courtyard is currently utilised as a gym. The three principal bedrooms all enjoy attractive elevated views across the garden and beyond.

Outside - The main entrance is located on the southern boundary, where electric gates are flanked by attractive stone walling extending along the frontage. The property sits within a sloping plot of approximately 0.7 acres, with a sweeping tarmac driveway winding through the gardens to the house. The grounds have been thoughtfully tiered to create a number of level lawned areas, interspersed with mature trees and shrubs that provide a good degree of privacy.
A generous parking area lies alongside the house and in front of the extensively refurbished garage, which offers flexibility for a variety of uses. Through the garage, further vehicular access leads onto Old Warleigh Lane, which originally served as the property's main approach. To the western side of the house is a substantial enclosed courtyard, surrounded by high stone walls. This sheltered and private space provides a wonderful setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, and enjoying the sunshine.

Services - The property is supplied by all mains services and heated by a recently installed gas fired boiler. Good outdoor and variable indoor mobile voice/data service is available through all four major providers (source: Ofcom's online service checker). Please note that the agents have neither inspected nor tested these services.
