Eskil Place, Great Torrington, Devon, EX38

A Much-Loved Family Home with Glorious Countryside Views. Offered to the market for the very first time in 45 years, this cherished bungalow has been a treasured family home, lovingly maintained and filled with happy memories. Set on a generous corner plot with breath-taking countryside views, it’s a peaceful retreat that offers space, comfort, and the rare opportunity to move straight in — with no onward chain.

From the moment you step into the welcoming entrance hall, there’s a sense of warmth and space. To the left, the dual-aspect sitting and dining room is flooded with natural light, with a beautiful stone fireplace creating a cosy focal point. While the gas fire has been capped, the original flue remains, offering the potential to reinstate it. Adjoining this room is a bright and airy sunroom — the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or take in the ever-changing rural views.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully laid out, complete with integrated dishwasher, a breakfast bar for informal meals, and a large utility/larder area with room for both fridge and freezer. It’s a practical, well-loved space that’s ready for everyday life.

To the right of the hall, you’ll find two comfortable double bedrooms and a spacious single, ideal for guests or family members, with a handy cloakroom and a family bathroom featuring a four-piece white suite. Both larger bedrooms offer excellent storage, with full-wall built-in wardrobes.
Just off the sitting room is the fourth generous double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, accompanied by a separate adjoining room currently used as a home office. This flexible space could easily serve as a peaceful study, a nursery, a dressing room, or even be adapted into an ensuite if desired.

Outside, the home continues to delight. The driveway provides ample off-street parking, complemented by a double garage with an electric roller door and convenient side access. Behind the garage, a potting shed offers practical space for gardening tools and projects.

The garden is a real highlight — beautifully maintained and lovingly landscaped over the years, it wraps around the home with a welcoming, peaceful atmosphere. Mostly laid to lawn, the garden is framed by an array of mature trees, shrubs, and colourful planting that offer privacy, seasonal interest, and attract local wildlife. A pathway winds through the garden to a raised summer house — the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the uninterrupted countryside views. There’s also a lower paved area that once housed a garden shed, now offering further potential for outdoor seating or storage.

This is more than just a bungalow – it’s a home with heart, ready to welcome its next chapter. If you’re looking for space, tranquillity, and views that feed the soul, this could be the perfect place to make your own.
