Description
North Wing, Hexworthy House is an impressive early 17th century property, sub-divided in the 1950's. This substantial semi detached residence offers well-proportioned accommodation and an abundance of original features throughout. The house enjoys spectacular views across the Tamar Valley.
The front entrance opens to a spacious reception hall, providing access to the principal rooms, together with a cloakroom, utility and boot room. Two notable reception rooms feature decorative panelling, shuttered picture windows and fireplaces, with high ceilings and excellent natural light. A further family room with log burner lies to the rear, with access to a guest bedroom and bathroom above.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of freestanding and built-in units, a Belfast sink, electric Aga, lpg hob and integrated ovens, with adjoining lean-to conservatory opening to a walled kitchen garden.
A beautiful and original carved staircase leads to the first floor, where the principal and guest bedroom both benefit from en suite bathrooms and attractive views over the Tamar Valley. A further bedroom and family bathroom are also located on this floor. The second floor provides two additional double bedrooms, again enjoying far-reaching views.
North Wing, is set within approximately three and a half acres of attractive grounds, which form a notable feature of the property. The gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, with mature woodland and established planting, creating a private and tranquil setting.
Immediately adjoining the house from the kitchen is a walled garden incorporating raised flower beds. In addition, there are productive fruit gardens and areas of woodland, offering both amenity and seclusion, as well as three ponds which enhances the overall setting and biodiversity of the grounds.
Location
Hexworthy House reflects the rich history of the Tamar Valley, with nearby Lawhitton historically held by the Bishops of Exeter and Launceston serving as a fortified gateway to the Duchy. The area has long been of political significance, with early records noting disputes between earls and bishops. In 1570, Thomas Bennett acquired Hexworthy through marriage to the Bishop of Exeter’s daughter, and is believed to have established the core of the present house.
The property occupies an elevated position overlooking the Tamar Valley, enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding woodland and rolling countryside, regarded as some of the most picturesque scenery in the South West.
Hexworthy is well located for Launceston and Tavistock, both offering a range of everyday amenities. Launceston provides a wider selection of commercial, educational and leisure facilities, together with access to the A30.
