Set within this favoured village a delightful executive style detached bungalow offering extensive accommodation with the most amazing distant views over the rolling Devon countryside, having the added benefit of air source heating, PV panels with FIT payments and a lovely well stocked garden.
Our clients were the first occupiers of this bungalow built of stone and face render under a pitch tiled roof and have enjoyed the good life living here for the past 26 years and seeing those views it is hard not to see why. Approached down a sloping access road that feeds four similar properties in the close, a driveway in front provides parking for several vehicles whilst a double garage with twin up and over doors provides further parking and roof storage.
Running through the spine of the property is a large T shaped reception hall with a cloaks and heated linen cupboard in situ and also giving access to attic space. Depending how any incoming owner would like to utilise it, the number of bedrooms could be 5.
A fine triple aspect sitting room is found at one end of the hall and offers a wonderful outlook to the views through sliding doors and for the cooler winters evenings a log burner is inset in the feature fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room comprises a range of contrasting grey gloss wall, floor and drawer units with extensive Corian work surfaces and concealed lighting. Appliances include a 4 ring electric hob with extractor above, double oven and dishwasher. A door leads out on to the terrace from the breakfast end. At this end of the property are found the dining room and two double bedrooms whilst moving down the reception hall a study/bedroom 5 is found adjacent to the double aspect main bedroom suite which has large almost floor to ceiling doors leading out in the garden and depending on the positioning of the bed provide distant views What a way to wake up! An en suite shower room is found leading off. Rounding off the accommodation is the main bathroom and a generous sized utility room that has a connecting door to the garage.
