Accommodation

The house is approached via a gravelled drive at the front of the house with ample parking plus a double garage.

Walking into the double height entrance hall, on the right is a guest suite, comprising bathroom, dressing area and double guest bedroom enjoying views of the sea and across Budleigh Salterton.

Double doors in the hall lead to the light and spacious drawing room, with Jetmaster fireplace and French doors out to a veranda and the top lawn.

The sitting room has beautiful views through the Scots pines, to the hills beyond and benefits from a woodburning stove.

The sun room is a wonderful entertaining space, glazed on 3 sides with access into the courtyard garden and the upper lawn with views across to the town and countryside.

The dining room looks out over the walled courtyard garden and leads into the kitchen/breakfast room, finished with Italian floor tiles. There is a head height electric oven and a gas hob set into the granite work surface. The walls are decorated with natural stone tiles. Adjoining the kitchen is a utility room plus an ample larder, with original slate shelving and access out onto the drive.

An elegant staircase from the entrance halls leads to the first floor, where there is a generous master bedroom with large ensuite bathroom, which enjoys glorious far-reaching views over the garden, surrounding countryside and sea. Also on the first floor are two further spacious bedrooms, plus a shower room and separate WC.

From the landing, a door leads through to further separate guest accommodation, with kitchen dining room, shower room and stairs that lead to two further double bedrooms. This also benefits from a separate, external door onto the drive.

Outside

The gardens at Westfield Lodge are a particularly attractive feature of the property with a large variety of mature plants and trees providing colour and interest all year round. Tree varieties include oak, mimosa, laburnum as well as the six iconic Scots pines on the bank, that are protected with a Tree Preservation Order.

The secluded and tranquil, split-level gardens enjoy magnificent views. Steps from the house lead down to the top lawn where one is greeted with beds of roses and herbaceous borders which create a mass of colour which one can enjoy from the paved seating area. Slate steps take you down to the larger lower garden that features a circular lawn with surrounding boarders containing mature semi-tropical shrubs as well as climbing roses, hebes and camelias. Small paths lead off the circular lawn to the greenhouse and to the wildlife area, with small pond. Further garden areas include the vegetable garden, the subtropical bank and the fruit tree area, plus the courtyard garden.
