Helmers Way, Chillington

The Property:

The ground floor at 2 Helmers Way opens into a welcoming entrance hall with plenty of room for coats, shoes, and everyday essentials. A door leads to a handy downstairs cloakroom, while the kitchen is well-equipped with generous wall and base units, space and plumbing for a washing machine, room for a fridge, and a selection of integrated appliances.

At the end of the hallway, you’ll find a spacious open-plan living and dining room filled with natural light thanks to its dual-aspect windows and glazed door opening out to the rear garden. There's plenty of space here for a dining table, and a large under-stairs cupboard provides useful extra storage.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned double bedrooms enjoying views across the rear garden towards the rolling South Hams countryside. A third, bright generously-sized single bedroom overlooks the front of the property. The family bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a bath and shower over, pedestal basin, and WC.

Outside

To the front, a paved path and mature shrubs add curb appeal, while to the side, there’s private driveway parking for two to three vehicles and discreet bin storage. The enclosed rear garden is southwest-facing, mainly laid to lawn, and features a patio area accessed directly from the living room — a great spot for outdoor dining or relaxing in the sun. A large timber shed offers additional storage and some flower beds add colour and character.
