Description

Discover Lawson Grove, an exclusive cul-de-sac nestled in Oreston, just on the outskirts of Plymouth. Built in 2002, this property has been lovingly maintained by its original owner, ensuring quality and care at every turn.

Step inside this exceptional family residence, masterfully designed to cater to your every need. The architect's vision comes to life in the expansive entrance hall and central staircase, seamlessly connecting you to generous accommodations spanning two floors. Adding to the allure is the convenience of an integral double garage and ample storage space.

Every room is illuminated by beautiful large windows or enhanced by French doors that open to the serene garden or your own private decked balcony. From the front of the house, enjoy breathtaking elevated views of Plymouth Harbour and the Sound, with the city’s vibrant skyline lighting up your evenings.

On the garage level, the sizable double garage offers ample space for two cars, along with dedicated storage areas. It also houses a brand-new boiler installed in 2024, complete with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Convenience is key, with easy access through a large up-and-over door at the front, a separate door to the rear garden and an internal door to the main entrance hall and stairway.

First Floor. External steps lead from the driveway to the covered porch. A glass-panelled front door opens into the spacious entrance hall adorned with light oak wooden floors, with enough work space for a desk, bookshelf and chair. Doors open into a cloakroom with a wash hand basin and a toilet.

A double bedroom to the front has lovely views overlooking the Grove, the pretty rockery and the raised front lawn. To the rear are two further very good sized double bedrooms, one with French Doors out to garden with a paved and gravel terrace.

Between the bedrooms is a conveniently placed Family Bathroom. The bathroom has a dark green tiled floor, a full-sized bath with an overhead shower, a wash hand basin and a loo. There is a heated towel rail and the decor is pale green and white.

Newly carpeted stairs and white painted banisters guide you up to a half-height level with glass double doors welcoming you into the enormous family sitting room. Centrally, there is an attractive sandstone composite fireplace, light oak wooden floors, a glass shelving cabinet and wall lights. The room is bathed with natural light, windows to the rear overlook the secluded garden and huge sliding doors to the front open onto a wooden decked balcony with far-reaching views, a lovely place to unwind and appreciate the tranquility of Lawson Grove.

Ascending the short flight of stairs to the first floor level, the light oak wooden floors continue. To the left, a door leads into the principal bedroom, it is light and airy, with windows facing the rear garden and overlooking the sun terrace. It has direct access into a dressing room and an ensuite bathroom fitted with a shower positioned over a bath, a wash hand basin, a toilet and a heated towel radiator, the bathroom is completed with a ceramic tiled floor and light paint finish.

Returning to the Hallway, there’s a handy airing/storage cupboard housing the hot water tank. Beside this is the door into the Kitchen.

The Kitchen is a generous size with ample work surfaces. It’s fully fitted with under under-counter Dishwasher, Fridge, Freezer, Electric Fan Oven and Gas Hob. The decor is a delightful terracotta-coloured tiled splash back and surround, with a cream ceramic tiled floor and pine wood cabinets with chrome accessories. However the best feature of the room is the view from the windows. These are far reaching towards the city, in the distance is the glistening water of Plymouth Sound with its Naval and leisure activities.

To the rear of the kitchen is a separate additional counter-topped food prep area and extra cabinets. This section also houses space for a tall fridge freezer and has an external glass door leading to the upper-level garden with a gravel path leading around the house, a convenient BBQ area and a shady section to the side of the property, under an ancient cherry tree.

Conveniently situated beside the kitchen is the dining room with the capacity to take a 10 seater table and sideboard. 
A balcony runs the entire width of this room with sliding glass doors bringing the outside in, the perfect place for a pre or post dinner aperitif.

Each room has either lovely big windows or French Doors leading out to the garden or out onto a decked balcony. The front of the house has lovely elevated views of Plymouth Harbour and the Sound and at night time the vibrant City skyline.

The garden is extremely private and not overlooked in the slightest. The rear garden offers a wealth of space on one level, it would be an ideal space for children’s games, a football net or a trampoline.

There is also a large paved and gravelled patio, perfect for gatherings, sunbathing or al fresco dining.

Previously, the very rear section of the garden was used as a successful vegetable growing plot, it would look lovely with raised veg and herb beds.
Around the left side of the garage is a pathway for wheelbarrow access and refuge bins. 
The other side of the garden is sloped and terraced with a gravel walkway and steps. It is mostly laid to lawn with some large decorative ancient rocks and a big brick-built retaining wall running alongside the paved driveway.

Although this property is already a very generously sized family home, it does have potential for further enlargement. (Subject to planning approval).
You can’t help but imagine how wonderful the views would become if you built another complete floor on top of the existing layout. The views would be 360* encompassing Dartmoor National Park to the Ocean City.
