Northgate, Totnes, Devon

This wonderfully located detached property is nestled close to the Castle and Narrows at the top end of the town. Sitting centrally within its pretty and varied gardens, the property also benefits from a separate cabin/studio and a large double garage with workshop space. It has pedestrian access from Castle Street to the front and North Street at the back and also via the garage off Alexandra Terrace.

The footpath from Castle Street leads to the gated access and on up to the front door which has a lovely wooden awning above, and which leads into a spacious hallway with doors off to the living areas and stairs directly ahead. There are two useful understairs cupboards one of which houses the water heater. To the right is a lovely large dual aspect kitchen/dining room with fitted base units, granite worktops, an Aga, together with an integrated induction hob beside it. There is plenty of space for a large fridge and dishwasher plus there is a walk in larder/utility room with space for washing machine and freezer.

There is space for a large dining table and the room opens into a garden room for relaxed seating, which is wonderfully light with two entire fully glazed walls and which leads down to a glorious sunroom with doors into the garden.

To the other side of the hallway there is a spacious double aspect sitting room with gas flame fire and large window to the front affording wonderful views. There are also French windows to the back opening into the garden, and with the high ceilings this is a lovely light room. Wonderful ethnic wooden doors lead through to a rear hall which is accessed via the back door, and where there is plenty of space for coats and boots plus there is also a useful WC and shower room where the gas boiler is housed.

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms off the bright landing which has a large window overlooking the rear garden with a view to Totnes Castle. There is access to the fully boarded loft space from the hallway. The main bedroom has a dual aspect and wonderful views across the town towards the moors, as does Bedroom 2 which also has an entire wall of fitted mirrored wardrobes. Bedroom 3 is quietly situated at the back and also has a dual aspect. There is a separate WC and a large bathroom with fitted bath, heated towel rail, a large laundry cupboard and wood paneling.

Outside
The gardens are a real highlight of the property and have a sub-tropical feel, with many mature shrubs and trees, walled beds, a small lawn, several sitting out areas and a shed. There is also a large banana plant and some palm trees as well as raised beds plus a greenhouse in the ‘Secret Garden’. Being entirely encompassed by old stone walls the property feels very private and enclosed, and yet the large terrace at the front (over the garage) has fabulous far reaching views and is not at all overlooked. From here there are steps down to the large double garage with electric roller door, and a large store/workshop area to the rear.

There is also a studio in the secret garden with stable door and power which would lend itself well to a Home Office/Studio/or an extra bedroom.
