SITUATION AND DESCRIPTION One of Newton Abbot's distinctive period homes with a magnificent aspect over Courtenay Park, number nine is located in one of the finest residential locations in Newton Abbot. This property is one in a crescent constructed in the 1840's. Following the arrival of the South Devon Railway in 1846, William Courtenay, Earl of Devon, planned to develop land to the west of the railway station into a park. The site comprised three fields, one for turnips and two for pasture, with no buildings or structures being recorded. Courtenay Park was laid out in 1854 and was enclosed by iron railings with ornate gates at the entrances. The fish pond was probably constructed at the same time. In 1858 the perimeter road was built and detached and semi detached villas were built in a mix of Georgian, gothic and Italianate style, most of which are Grade II listed. Courtenay Park is a Conservation Area. An excellent example of the best in Newton Abbot architecture, number nine is one of a group of three houses, all of which are of very differing designs creating the illusion of a whole. The attractive front garden has a drive which sweeps through a low stone wall and there are delightful views over the park. Number nine Courtenay Park has been modernised without destroying its original character. Many period features remain. Ideal for a family with its attractive garden and four bedrooms upstairs, there is a benefit of a kitchen/family room which is almost 24 feet long and a separate living room with delightful views across the front garden to Courtenay Park. This property has a study and a lean to conservatory which doubles as a utility room. The cream on the cake of number nine is the cellar which is more of a lower ground floor with its three rooms, one with window and power and light. The garage at the back of the garden is ideal for storage and there is residents' permit parking around the front of the house. This is a lovely residential property and well worthy of internal inspection.The market town of Newton Abbot has an excellent range of shops and social facilities to suit most local needs. The mainline railway station has direct and connecting services to most parts of the country and a high speed link to London. Access to the A380 dual carriageway, which links Newton Abbot to Exeter and the motorway network, is about three quarters of a mile away. Number nine Courtenay Park (Seymour House) will be found at the top end of the park. ACCOMMODATION GROUND FLOOR ENTRANCE HALL With radiator and stripped wood flooring.
