Description
The property is understood to have been originally built around 55 to 65 years ago and was extended some years later to provide a larger living room plus a lower ground floor area which has annexe potential. It now requires some general updating and stands on a good sized plot which allows for further extension, subject to the required consents.
Indeed the garden is a real feature of the property due to its size, though like the property itself now requires some attention.
Forde Close is a private cul-de-sac of detached properties located within walking distance of the village centre. Abbotskerswell is a picturesque village with an active local community and range of amenities including primary school, cafe, pub, church and village hall. The A381 provides easy access to the market town of Newton Abbot (around two miles) with its modern pedestrianised shopping centre, supermarkets, secondary schools and main line railway station. The historic town of Totnes is some five miles to the south-west and both the south Devon coastline and Dartmoor National Park are within striking distance.
