Situated at the top of a peaceful cul-de-sac on the fringes of Pinhoe, this exceptional 1930s Wakeham and Tucker built family home has been cherished by the current owners for nearly two decades.

A brick built porch provides essential storage and opens into a warm and welcoming entrance hall. Original oak floorboards and an oak staircase instantly set the tone showcasing the home's rich character.

The separate dining room features an open fire and French double glazed doors to the rear garden, along with charming original features that make it ideal for both everyday dining and entertaining.
The extended kitchen and breakfast room create a bright and practical area with space for a range style cooker which could be included in the sale. A side window and French double glazed doors flood the space with natural light and open directly onto the westerly facing garden.
Upstairs there are three generous double bedrooms. The primary bedroom enjoys a striking curved window while the second double bedroom offers lovely views across the rear garden, the allotments and far reaching views of the city. The family bathroom includes a separate shower cubicle, bath and wash hand basin, with a separate cloakroom for added convenience.
