Description

Kaywana Hall | Modernist House

Nestled within a pristine 12-acre woodland, this exceptional property holds a distinctive pedigree as one of Devon's renowned butterfly houses, originally constructed in 1962. Imbued with historical significance, the residence underwent an extensive reconstruction in 2009, meticulously adhering to the original architectural style and footprint. Additional enhancements, including supplementary buildings and a contemporary pool house, were seamlessly integrated, culminating in the property's final configuration in 2021.

The centrepiece of this estate is an exquisite heated swimming pool, creating an idyllic focal point during the summer season. The main house boasts an open-plan design, encompassing a lounge, dining area, study, and kitchen—all strategically positioned on different levels. A galleried bedroom with a super king bed and an accompanying shower room is perched on an elevated tier, providing a distinct vantage point within the main living space. The kitchen is comprehensively equipped to meet the expectations of discerning guests.

Distinguishing this residence further are four detached bedrooms, each offering king or super king beds, and one featuring a versatile zip and link twin arrangement. These accommodations feature tea and coffee amenities, smart TVs, external decking, and private entrances. The bathrooms are thoughtfully designed, incorporating both bath and separate shower facilities.

Adding to the allure is the newly constructed pool house, which encompasses a fully equipped kitchen, dining and lounge areas, as well as conveniences such as toilets and showers—creating an ideal retreat for sun-soaked days by the pool.

The kitchen cupboards are stocked with various dry goods for guest use, and the bathrooms are replete with essential toiletries. To further elevate the experience, local chefs are available for personalised culinary experiences, complemented by professional staff offering seamless service and a host of optional extras.
