Description
The exterior complements the interior, offering a generous rear garden that has been thoughtfully maintained. Featuring a level lawn and a patio adjoining the conservatory, the outdoor space is well suited for relaxation and entertaining. To the front, the property benefits from its own driveway providing parking for one vehicle, with scope to extend the parking area; subject to necessary permissions by utilising the adjoining lawn. An integral garage also offers additional parking or storage options.
Energy efficiency is a key feature of this home, with 12 solar panels installed under a free government scheme at no cost to the owner. The panels are subject to a 25-year roof lease (around 11 years remaining) with the system generating power for both the homeowner and the panel provider. This arrangement significantly reduces utility bills, as the household benefits from a share of the generated energy at a highly discounted rate.
Set within the highly regarded residential area of The Willows, the property is ideally located for families and professionals alike. A variety of well-regarded schools, including Barton Hill Academy, are within easy reach, as are comprehensive shopping facilities at The Willows Retail Park and Barton. Medical facilities, including a local doctors surgery and Torbay Hospital, are conveniently close, while excellent road and public transport links provide swift access to the South Devon Link Road and onward to the M5.

Garage
An excellent addition to the home is the integral garage, which benefits from power and lighting. Access is provided via an up-and-over door to the front, a courtesy door leading to the rear garden, and internal access directly from the kitchen. The garage also serves as a practical utility area, fitted with countertop space incorporating a stainless steel sink and drainer.

The boiler is serviced and maintained annually under a British Gas HomeCare service plan.
