SITUATION Oak House is a beautifully presented property that lies within a little known valley and while the property is neighboured, charming views, together with peace and quiet, give the distinct feeling of being within the heart of the country. West Ogwell is located on the outskirts of the historic town of Newton Abbot, which is set on the banks of the Teign Estuary. Newton Abbot is served by the A380 dual carriageway linking it to the cathedral city of Exeter. The charming medieval town of Totnes is 10 miles to the south, with a range of facilities, which include excellent shops, restaurants and schools. The A38 Devon expressway is also close to hand, providing excellent communications between Plymouth and Exeter, where it joins the M5 motorway. There is the added advantage of the mainline railway station at Newton Abbot and Totnes, which links the South West with London Paddington and Eurostar. Newton Abbot benefits from a bustling shopping centre with a very good range of shops, restaurants, weekly market, cafes and a choice of inns. West Ogwell also has superb access to three of Southern England s greatest amenities, Dartmoor National Park, Torbay and the South Hams.
