Vikings is a substantial family residence built in 1965, set within approximately 2.6 acres of grounds comprising a kitchen garden, pasture field, and amenity land. Occupying an elevated position on the southern side of Knowles Hill, the property enjoys sweeping views across Newton Abbot and the surrounding countryside, reaching as far as Dartmoor. This outlook gives the property a distinctly rural feel, while still being within easy walking distance of the town centre. The surrounding area is characterised by individually designed, detached homes, lending a sense of exclusivity and character to the location. Access to the main residence is via a private driveway from Seymour Road, while the adjoining field benefits from its own separate gated entrance. Additionally, there is potential to create a second access point from Petroc Drive to the east, offering future possibilities for residential development (subject to planning). The sale of Vikings presents a rare opportunity to acquire a unique and private semi-rural home, offering substantial space and flexibility for family living, all within close proximity to the town’s amenities. Equally, the site holds considerable potential for redevelopment or further residential use, taking full advantage of its commanding position and far-reaching views (subject to planning)
