Description

INTRODUCTION
Rippon Tor is a fabulous detached dormer bungalow in an idyllic location at the top of Haytor Vale and within a short walk of Haytor Rocks and the Moorland beyond. The property has been the subject of a programme of extensive modernisation by the current owners with the addition of another bedroom and stylish extension to the living room.

In total, there are four bedrooms split over two floors and a series of light and spacious reception rooms to the rear of the property. Many of these rooms also enjoy distant views across the moor and to the Teign Estuary, as well as providing direct access to the garden. The addition of the new entrance porch has created a larger kitchen area and the quality of the units and white goods are of a high standard. The main living room is unquestionably the standout room in this property. A high quality extension provides greater size and additional light into this is lovely room whilst also affording the most fabulous views.  The first floor level comprises a shower room and two double bedrooms.

The garden has been completely re-landscaped and there is a brand new driveway with electric gates to the front of the bungalow. The garden provides a profusion of colour with well established shrubs and sunny patios surrounded by raised flower beds. The main garden is level and laid to lawn with glimpses of Haytor Rocks through the trees. There is also a separate outbuilding which was formerly a stable block now converted into a double garage, log shed and general storage room.  A further alteration could provide a third parking space.

Rippon Tor has a new pathway to access the property at ground floor level. This leads from the main parking area into the fourth bedroom and provides disabled access should this be needed.

STEP INSIDE
Rippon Tor provides extremely functional accommodation with bedrooms split over two floors as is traditional with dormer bungalows. This is certainly an adaptable home which can suit a multitude of requirements.

Upon entering the property you are instantly struck by the high quality finish and attention to detail with works that have been carried out. There is a wonderful flow to the property with the large kitchen / dining room leading through to a light and spacious extended living room. The kitchen has been completely re-modelled by the current owners providing a bespoke quality kitchen. There are an excellent range of base level and wall mounted units with integrated appliances including an electric range cooker, dishwasher, fridge and freezer. The extended living room provides plenty of light and space and essentially a warm homely feel. The cast iron wood burner is a wonderful addition, ideal for those winter evenings and the views from this room simply must be seen to be fully appreciated. The far wing of the property provides two downstairs bedrooms and a quality en suite shower room. The room adjoining the living room could also be a study room if one did not require four bedrooms. There is also a separate toilet to this floor just off the main hallway.

To the first floor level there are two double bedrooms with both rooms enjoying some wonderful far reaching views. Both bedrooms provide bespoke, fitted wardrobes and drawers with seated areas by the windows. These rooms are serviced by a modern three piece shower room suite of a high quality.

STEP OUTSIDE
Rippon Tor occupies a generous level, plot affording excellent privacy and some lovely open views. The main garden is to the side of the property with a well manicured level expanse of lawn surrounded by colourful flower raised borders that are easy to maintain. There are two sunny patios ideal for al fresco dining. The main area of garden however is arguably to the rear of the property. There is a delightful, paved sun terrace which extends around the property and also accesses the main reception rooms. From here, there are panoramic views of the Teign Estuary and sea.  On a clear day, shipping is clearly visible.

To the front of the property, brand new wrought iron gates lead into a sizeable driveway which has been re-surfaced completely by the current owners. This provides direct access into a large outbuilding which can be utilised in a number of different ways. Formerly a stable block it has now been converted into a double garage, log shed and general storage room.  A further alteration could provide a third parking space.
