Moorhaven, Ivybridge

DESCRIPTION

Luscombe Maye is delighted to bring to market 22 Tower Lane, a sizeable five bedroom character home enjoying far reaching views to both the nearby countryside and the sea, which is being sold with no forward chain. The property is situated within the Moorhaven village, which itself is stooped with history and this property is understood to have formed part of what would have been the former ball room, before the complex was converted to homes. 

A spacious entrance hall with beautiful stained glass doors and Canadian spring maple wood floor, has ample room for hanging coats, storing shoes and wellington boots. Steps lead down to the kitchen-dining room which has an array of floor and wall mounted cupboards plus a central island. There is a Belfast sink, integrated double oven and electric induction hob plus a Quooker tap and there is space for a fridge-freezer and plumbing for a dishwasher. This room has ample space for a dining table and chairs with doors opening onto the rear decking, bringing the outside inside. A separate utility room fitted with an additional sink and wall mounted cupboards has space for a washing machine and tumble dryer and there is a downstairs shower room in here too. Steps from the inner lobby off the entrance hall and a spiral staircase from the kitchen-dining room lead up to the open-plan living space. This room boasts high ceilings, with decorative ceiling roses and curved floor to ceiling windows on two sides of the room, which suit the Victorian heritage and allows the light to pour in. A woodburner sits upon a slate hearth, framed with vibrant wall tiles and a door leads out to the South-Westerly facing balcony, which overlooks the rear garden, the lawned communal grounds and beyond. A mezzanine level which looks over this main reception room has been a great work from home space for the current owners and the window on the side of this room looks up to Western Beacon. Completing the lower levels of this home is a fifth bedroom, which is accessible on the level from the front door. 

Stairs ascend to the first floor landing (35 stairs to be exact!) which provides access to the four other bedrooms and family bathroom. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom and enjoys a even more elevated view out to the nearby countryside. On a clear day, you can even see the sea! Bedroom four has a high sleeper bed with a detachable ladder plus fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom has a roll top bath and steps lead up to the tiled shower room.  

OUTSIDE

To the front of the property are two double car parking spaces in tandem, where the current owners have parked four vehicles at times. There are also various outside storage areas associated with the property plus a log store under the front veranda. The South-Westerly facing rear garden is fully enclosed, partly with a panelled fence and some laurel hedging. There is some lawn plus a rockery with an array of colourful plants and shrubs when in blossom and steps lead up to the decked area which has ample room for an outside table and chairs and is a great space for enjoying some Al fresco dining.

MOORHAVEN

Moorhaven Village is a unique development of Victorian buildings renovated in the late 1990s and converted from a former hospital to create a village of about one hundred individual homes, all set in some 65 acres of beautiful landscaped grounds. The Village has a strong community spirit with a book club, gardening group, and a Facebook group for all things Moorhaven. All Moorhaven properties have the use of about 15 acres of communal grounds which include a sports field, arboretum, nursery school, two tennis courts, a croquet lawn and boules court. A public footpath leads from the grounds giving direct access to Dartmoor and some of the finest beaches on the South coast are within about a 30 minute drive. Moorhaven Village is in the catchment area for Ugborough Primary School and Ivybridge Community College, and there is school transport provided from Moorhaven to both.
