Description

Description

Located in a prominent position within this popular modern development, this beautifully presented detached property offers light and spacious accommodation in addition to a good sized garden and an excellent double garage with gated parking, making it both a practical and attractive family home.  An internal viewing is very highly recommended to appreciate the many benefits.

Accommodation

A part frosted glazed front door leads to the Entrance Hall which has a useful cloaks cupboard, stairs to the first floor and a Downstairs Cloakroom which is fitted with a low level WC and a pedestal hand basin with mixer tap and splashback tiling.
 
The dual aspect Sitting Room is a light and spacious room with multi paned windows to the front and side and a further bay window to the side, creating an attractive and comfortable living space.  The Kitchen/Dining Room is a fantastic family hub, also benefiting from a dual aspect with a multi paned window to the front and a large box bay to the side with floor to ceiling windows and French windows leading out to the garden.  The dining area provides ample space for a large table and chairs and the kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units with work surfaces over and cupboards and drawers under incorporating a stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap, six-ring gas hob with extractor over, a built-in double oven/grill, pan drawers, space for a fridge/freezer and dishwasher, and tiled flooring.  A door leads through to the Utility Room which has a part glazed door to the rear, giving access to the driveway, and is fitted with a work surface with cupboard under and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.  There is an under stairs storage cupboard providing good storage space, in addition to the wall mounted Ideal Logic combi boiler.
 
From the entrance hall, the stairs rise to the First Floor Landing which has a window to the rear, a loft hatch and an airing cupboard housing the pressurised water tank.
 
The Main Bedroom is a great sized room enjoying a dual aspect with multi paned window to the front and a further window to the side.  There is a quintet of built-in mirror-fronted wardrobes and a door leads to the En-Suite Shower Room, which has a frosted window to the side and is fitted with a fully tiled shower cubicle, a low level WC and a pedestal hand basin with mixer tap.
 
Bedrooms 2  and 3 are both good sized doubles with multi paned sash windows to the front and side respectively, with a built-in double wardrobe in the former; Bedroom 4 is a generous single with a multi paned window to the front and a useful over-stairs storage cupboard.  The Family Bathroom has a frosted window to the rear and is fitted with a matching suite comprising a panelled bath with mixer tap with tiled and mirrored surround, a pedestal hand basin with mixer tap, a low level WC and heated towel rail.

Outside

To the front of the property is a parking space for one car and a block paved pathway leading around to the side with cast iron railings and well stocked flower border with box bushes, roses and spring bulbs.  Two double wooden gates to the side of the house lead to the driveway providing parking for up to four vehicles and access to the garage.  There is a pedestrian gate leading back onto the road and steps up to the utility room door and a further pedestrian gate to the garden.
 
The rear garden is a great size for a property of this ilk and is arranged on three levels with a paved patio immediately outside the kitchen/dining room with pathways running to the side gate and a further pedestrian gate to the front.  A second paved patio is raised slightly to take advantage of glorious southerly views across the valley towards the Yealm estuary, and is a perfect spot for al fresco dining.  The remainder is mainly laid to artificial lawn and three steps lead down to a further area of lawn with a putting green.  Perimeters comprise attractive stone walls to match the house itself and fences.

Double Garage

With two up and over doors to the front, extensive eaves storage, power and light.

Situation

Brixton is situated about 15 minutes from the city of Plymouth (5½ miles), but is very much a country village surrounded by the rolling hills of the South Hams countryside.  A thriving village, there is a strong sense of community here with many community groups, an 'Outstanding' village school, and church.  The Foxhound pub will give you a warm welcome with a wide range of real ales and home cooked food, much of which is supplied by local producers.  The fish and chip shop is well regarded with regular customers who travel from Brixton and the surrounding villages.  A post office counter is available in the mornings and Otter garden centre at the edge of village sells more than just plants and lifestyle products, with a large café for coffee, cake or lunch.
 
Local beaches include Wembury (National Trust) and Mothecombe, both accessible in under 15 minutes, and Dartmoor National Park is within a 20 minute drive.  Residents of Brixton can apply for moorings in the Yealm Harbour Authority.  The village has a wonderful network of footpaths down to the estuary and across the local fields.  The nearby town of Plymstock has a range of independent shops and supermarkets such as Lidl and Morrisons.  The city of Plymouth offers a wide range of shops, restaurants, cinemas and theatres plus a mainline train station and continental ferry port.

Lettings

Luscombe Maye also offers an Award-Winning Lettings service.  If you are considering Letting your own property, or a buy to let purchase, please contact Andrew or Alex on or to discuss our range of bespoke services.

About Us

It speaks volumes that Luscombe Maye has been established since 1873. Since R.H Luscombe & Sons laid the foundations to the business nearly 150 years ago, neither the property market nor Luscombe Maye has stood still. What was first established as agricultural auctioneers, land and estate agents is now a thriving business operating across sales, lettings and professional services. Fully committed to providing our clients the highest possible levels of service, we have developed a strong reputation and a highly successful brand.

With a comprehensive network of offices across the West Country, our team is fundamental to everything we do. We pride ourselves on retaining the best estate and letting agents, chartered surveyors, valuers, land agents and planning consultants in the area. Our experienced professionals have an unrivalled knowledge of property and land, benefitting from being able to draw on the additional knowledge from the specialist divisions within the firm when working with our clients.

Luscombe Maye also has deep-rooted connections throughout the wider areas of Devon, Dorset and Cornwall. This love, association and knowledge of the area in which we operate is invaluable and we believe it is this fundamental principle, together with the strong interpersonal and professional skills of the individuals in our business, which set us apart.

From field to farm, waterside, country and town we are motivated to constantly exceed expectations and thrive on partnering people with property.
