Description
Hele Park is an early 19th-century house located on Ashburton Road in Newton Abbot. The building is rendered with a slate roof, featuring wide bracketed eaves, moulded stacks, and coped parapets at the gable ends. It has a double-depth plan that includes a hipped-roofed two-storey central rear wing and a long single-storey rear wing added in the late 19th century.
The house stands two storeys high with a cellar and has a symmetrical three-window façade. The first floor has 8/8-pane sash windows made with crown glass, while the ground floor features late 19th-century horned 2/2-pane sashes. The entrance consists of a set-back six-panel door with raised-and-fielded panels in the reveals and soffit, framed by a semicircular-arched raised surround and a fanlight with interlacing tracery.
Attached to the front corners of the house are rubblestone walls approximately 4 meters high, which curve forward for about 8 meters on each side. Each wall has a blind-window recess and an entrance; the right side is flanked by piers, while the left side has a door and reduces to about 3 meters high, flanking a rear garden that extends for approximately 30 meters. The interior of the house has not been inspected.
