Heathfield

About the property

Heathfield is a handsome detached Edwardian villa, one of the first to be built on Thurlestone's Yarmer estate and is a much loved family home that has been in the same family for several generations. The villa provides graceful living in the supremely spacious rooms of a bygone era and most of which overlook the extensive gardens of nearly an acre and have stunning views towards the headland of Bolt Tail and the curve of Bigbury Bay. A few minutes' walk from this fine house is the sandy horseshoe beach of Thurlestone Sands, the well known Thurlestone Golf Course (handicap required) and the local tennis courts.
