Avonwick, South Brent

DESCRIPTION

Luscombe Maye is delighted to bring to market Wayside, a semi-detached country home situated on the outskirts of Avonwick, which is being sold with no forward chain and comes with versatile land of just under 4.5 acres. The property has plenty of its own outside space, with many equestrian facilities such as stabling, a sand school. There is also a large double garage, which may have the potential for converting, subject to planning permission.

The home has driveway parking for several vehicles large and small, and is perfectly located with the A38 Devon Expressway being approximately 2.5 miles away. Torquay, Plymouth and Exeter and thus the M5 are all easily reached by car within 30 minutes and the railway stations of Totnes and Ivybridge with direct connections to London Paddington are each within about 7 miles. Access to Dartmoor and the beautiful South Hams beaches are all within a half hour reach.  

The spacious kitchen-dining room has solid oak wooden units and oak worktop, all sitting upon a slate floor with underfloor heating. There is a Belfast sink with countertop with Quartz overlay, an integrated Bosch dishwasher plus a large pantry style cupboard with drawers, as well as space for a Range cooker and fridge-freezer. This room can also accommodate a good-size dining room table, and with the front doors open, provides an airy space bringing the outside inside. A separate utility room has slate flooring, WC, a sink and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer and houses the Worcester gas fired boiler. The dual aspect sitting room with exposed beams, enjoys a double-sided woodburner, perfect for getting cosy in those cooler evenings. There is a second reception room, which has most recently been used as a home office and benefits from the same radiant heat of the woodburner.

A downstairs extension has created what has most recently been used as a bedroom with en-suite wet room and enjoys oak bi-fold doors which open onto the front patio. This room could also be utilised as a further reception room if one prefers. A useful boot room to the left of the front door, is ideal for storing shoes, coats and your wellington boots. Upstairs there are three double bedrooms with two of these looking towards the stables and paddocks. The family bathroom has a large corner shower enclosure and a separate bath.

The property is accessed via a shared drive with our large parking area situated just off from this. Steps ascend down to a South-Easterly facing walled patio courtyard which is ideal for Alfresco dining with plenty of space for a barbeque and additional pots and plants. There is a large double garage with an up and over electric wooden door which also has floored loft providing a large usable space above, which can be accessed via the parking area or from the track behind. There may be scope/ potential, subject to obtaining all the necessary permissions and consents to utilise the garage further. 

A gated track provides vehicular access to the stables, tack room and workshop and access up to the sand school and field. A concrete walkway divides the timber frame stables, offering stabling for three with mains electricity and water and the useful open fronted bay for storage and feed, the double door storage barn and single door storage which has electricity.

There is a lawned garden area with a variety of plants, as well as a greenhouse, a pond and a covered decking area being another great space for dining outside and catching the evening sun. The fenced sand school measures approximately 20m x 35m and there are three gently sloping fields with mains water connections and some spectacular views across the surrounding countryside and towards Dartmoor.
