Description

This superbly proportioned semi-detached bungalow has been tastefully modernised during the present owner's tenure and is presented in excellent order throughout. The property occupies a slightly elevated position with the desirable area of Fortescue within Sidmouth on the eastern side of town, and enjoys a fabulous outlook along Salcombe Hill and across the Sid Valley.

The accommodation briefly comprises a covered porch with tiled flooring in front of an obscured glazed front door with glazed panels to each side. The entrance hallway is a welcoming space offering plenty of room to hang coats and remove shoes, and a useful storage cupboard. The living room is a pleasant reception room with a large westerly facing window that enjoys a far-reaching outlook to the hills that surround the Sid Valley. There is an attractive cast iron gas coal effect fire with a tiled surround, wooden mantle, and marble hearth. The kitchen/dining room features an extensive range of base and wall mounted units with wood block worksurfaces and an intergal Belfast sink. There is space and plumbing for a selection of integral appliances, tiled splashbacks and laminate tile effect flooring. The room will easily accommodate a good sized dining suite and benefits from a dual aspect space with two windows facing north with a partial outlook towards Salcombe Hill and a single window facing west. A partly glazed door to the rear of the kitchen opens onto a fully double glazed lean-to with a further door that leads onto the rear gardens. 

There are two comfortably sized double rooms. Bedroom 1 has a large picture window that enjoys a similar outlook to the living room and bedroom 2 overlooks the front gardens with distant views towards Salcombe Hill. The bathroom comprises a fully tiled modern white suite with a panelled bath with an electric shower unit above, wash basin with fitted storage below, a low level wc and a heated towel rail. 

The property is approached over a short concrete path which passes between two level areas of artificial lawn towards the front door. the front boundary is a low lying brick wall with hedging to the side. A pathway leads to the rear, with access to the lean-to at the side of the kitchen and passes a deck which provides an excellent space to sit out and enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. A workshop with light and power lies to the rear of the garden and a side gate provides access to the driveway. The drive is accessed from the rear and provides parking for three well parked vehicles. There is a large single garage 5.25m (17'3) x 3.66m (12') with hinged metal door, power and light.

A super home, located in a popular position with a delightful outlook. Early inspection recommended.
