Forde Close, Newton Abbot, TQ12 4AF

A delightful, mature bay-fronted mid-terrace home set in a convenient, level location around half a mile from Newton Abbot town centre. A credit to the current owner, the house combines a characterful, light-filled interior with modern comforts including double glazing, gas central heating and owned solar panels.

At the rear lies a beautifully private courtyard-style garden with raised planters, a paved terrace perfect for summer dining, and pedestrian rear access. A useful garden store/workshop with power provides excellent additional space.

Forde Close operates a residents' on-street permit parking scheme via Teignbridge District Council, and with parking on both sides of the road and homes only on one side, finding a space is generally straightforward.

Newton Abbot’s vibrant, well-served town centre is virtually level from the property and offers a broad selection of high-street shops, long-established independent traders, cafés, pubs, restaurants and a mainline railway station.

Solar Panels: Eight owned panels providing approximately £1,300 per year in income (as advised by vendor)

 
Accommodation

Stepping inside, the home immediately feels warm and welcoming. The front door opens into an internal vestibule, leading through to the main hallway with stairs rising to the first floor.

A spacious open-plan living/dining room—formerly two separate rooms—offers excellent space for both dining and seating areas, enhanced by a charming three-sided bay window overlooking the front.

The kitchen provides a good range of cabinets and generous work surfaces, with a rear lobby and back door giving access to the garden.

Upstairs, the split-level, part-galleried landing leads to two double bedrooms and the bathroom. The main bedroom spans the full width of the house and overlooks the front. The fabulous bathroom has been thoughtfully updated in recent years and features a four-piece white suite including a roll-top bath and an oversized shower enclosure.
