Chequers Estate Agents are proud to present Whistlers End to the market — an exceptional and highly versatile residence, enviably positioned in an elevated setting within the ever-desirable village of Bishops Tawton. Framed by sweeping, panoramic views across the surrounding North Devon countryside, this substantial and beautifully appointed home offers an outstanding level of adaptability, making it ideal for a range of lifestyles, including multi-generational living.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a generous and elegantly proportioned entrance hall — a space with the presence and flexibility to serve not only as a hallway but also as a study or reading nook. From here, doors lead to a beautifully intimate sitting room with a characterful wood-burning stove, as well as to the show-stopping kitchen/dining/family room. This impressive open-plan space is flooded with natural light thanks to Velux-style roof windows and enjoys a seamless connection to the gardens beyond, making it the true heart of the home. Off the kitchen lies a well-fitted utility room, with an adjoining boot room and cloakroom — ideal for busy family life.

Also on the ground floor is a spacious en-suite bedroom, currently arranged as a guest suite, but equally well suited to an independent living space for a relative or even a work-from-home solution.

Upstairs, the expansive principal room is currently used as a first-floor lounge to take full advantage of the breathtaking views. Positioned next to a stylish shower room, this room could easily be transformed into an indulgent Master Suite. Three further bedrooms, all of which enjoy delightful outlooks over the rolling countryside, and a well-appointed family bathroom complete the first-floor accommodation.

Externally, Whistlers End is approached via a private, well-maintained concrete driveway shared with just one neighbouring property. There is generous off-road parking along with a detached garage. The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped and beautifully maintained, offering a sense of privacy, seclusion, and year-round interest. The rear garden is arranged over multiple tiers with a variety of mature shrubs, established planting, and two greenhouses — ideal for the green-fingered.

To the front, the gardens unfold across manicured lawns interspersed with ornamental trees, raised patios, and a gravelled seating area — an idyllic setting for alfresco dining and summer entertaining. The outdoor space has been lovingly tended to by the current owners and is very much an extension of the home itself.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly flexible and spacious family home in one of North Devon’s most desirable village settings, complete with captivating views, elegant accommodation, and exceptional versatility throughout.
